Austin was amazing. We even went to the wrong pick up spot and he came and found us! He was so fun, energetic and accommodating the whole trip. Got to do lots of activities and the food was good!
Definitely recommend this tour. Thanks to Viet for his quick and easy communication 🙏🏼. Stunning views, delicious food, you can buy drinks on the boat as well and very friendly boat crew.
well organized trip, buffet style lunch was good. communication by WhatsApp and phone in English was perfect
I had a great experience on this tour and I’m very satisfied with how everything was organized. Throughout the trip I felt well taken care of and comfortable, which made it easy to fully enjoy the experience. The organizer speaks very good English, communication was smooth, and everything was clear and well explained. The whole trip was truly excellent and I would happily recommend it to others.
Perfect service, lovely, courtesy the nicest day cruise we had ever, great amenities ,Thumbs up for Hercules Grand
From the beginning of the booking the local provider concierge person was prompt to contact and request and provide all the necessary details! It was smooth with zero hidden costs! The people were so helpful when I arrived at the port to assist me to check in with plenty of time so I was not rushed! The on board guide Tin and the ships crew and staff members were outstanding - especially Rosie who attended my table but all staff were observably brilliant! I chose this tour as a day trip because it started early not at lunchtime! You get your moneys worth on time but so much more value to leave
We had a fun day out on the watter, staff was nice! The stops where very busy, because most boats stop at the same places. But that did not take away from the great views and lovely day.
Super journée où l'on a pu faire différentes activités ! Le buffet était très bon, nous avons eu beaucoup d'explications durant toute la journée grâce à notre guide Lang et nous avons pu voir un magnifique couché de soleil ! Je recommende cette activité
Nagyon változatos Ă©s izgalmas program volt, mindenkinek ajánlom. Az idegenvezetĹ‘nk, Ken igazán kedves, informatĂv Ă©s vicces volt egĂ©sz idĹ‘ alatt.
It was good, but when there is bad weather, you are left alone a bit without knowing what are the next steps and everything stands still. It was a little scary to hide in the cave and having no further infos.
Die Beratung von der Firma Happy Travel war unkompliziert, sehr professionell und ausgezeichnet. Es wurden mehrere Ausflüge angeboten, und am Ende war alles auf unsere Ansprüche abgestimmt. Die Reise war sehr interessant und gut vorbereited. Wir haben diesmal unsere Freunde mitgehabt, und sie waren auch begestert. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit
Alles war sehr gut organisiert. Programm war interessant und spannend. Extra Danke an unseren Guide Brian. Er hat alles unter Kontrolle gehabt, hatt so viel interessante Information uns weiter gegeben. kann nur weiter empfehlen
