Great Service
Drew_B, October 2026
Excellent service. They send detailed instructions before your ride so you know where to go. We arrived early and they were able to put us on the next boat out so we didn’t have to wait for our scheduled time. The flight is awesome they take us quite high up and you can see several islands. After the boat ride on the rafts to the shore, we spotted dolphins and the drivers took us over to see them closer.
