“The tour was very good. The crew were friendly and took very good care of us, especially when it came to prepping and serving a wonderful lunch for us. The first two islands were charming with not much to do but walk in a very peaceful environment. The third island had a beautiful sandy beach with clear warm water and places to eat AND the water was warm enough to swim in. Weather was perfect. They also picked us up at our hotel. Terrific fun day and our money was well spent. The boat itself was reasonably comfortable and had two decks to choose from.”

Coffee on board was very reasonably priced and tasted good. The staff were helpful. The stops were relaxing although we chose not to do any of the optional activities.
