My daughter was very happy when she took a deck boat for the first time. She enjoyed the sea breeze and sunshine while playing games along the way. The crew was also very attentive and took good care of our safety.

Amazing! On the way there, the transfer is on time and on the way back, you are quickly taken care of. The boat is sumptuous and very large, there is plenty of space and also a slide, kayak and paddle. The islands are beautiful, the water is so clear! But what makes this excursion unforgettable is the English-speaking guide (January 10 - her name is Tchi-Tchi I think, sorry if I'm wrong). I have had the chance to do many excursions but I have never met such an incredible guide. She is so kind and so attentive! She takes the time at the beginning to explain the day's program in detail, she then reminds you throughout the day of the steps to come, regularly asks you if everything is okay, always smiling and sweet and an excellent photographer too! Thank you very much, I had a great time and I will keep a wonderful memory of it

Excellent tour guides and crews on the boat. Great service. The yacht is bigger than speedboat and hence more room to sit and relax. Nevertheless sadly that it wobbling more than a speedboat and cause seasick to passengers easier.

The environment is beautiful, the water is clear and the sand is young. The tour guide was very attentive and considerate. Due to strong winds on the day of the trip, some projects had to be canceled. However, the tour guide took the initiative to explain to the tourists in detail and provided other solutions to protect the rights of the tourists. praise

Josh and Sunny took very good care of everyone on the boat and constantly informed us of the itinerary to let us know what to expect and coming. They are very experienced and know how to handle adhoc situations eg to move to another site with lesser waves that were caused by typhoon warning. They are also very fun to be and talk to. Definitely recommend them!
