Prince island - Had a great experience visiting the islands. The guide didn’t just take us on a boat and drop us off. He took us up to the monastery an took us through it. Also on the big island took us around an explained things very well. Would definitely recommend him.

Not recommended. This isn’t a tour - This wasn’t really a tour. You spent a lot of time of an old boat, that wasn’t clean and the furnishings looked like they were found in a tip. There was some commentary on the boat, which you could only hear in one area. You had an hour stay on one island, with no tour. You were dumped there and had to figure things out. That wasn’t too bad, but on the second island you were there for 3 hours with no tour! The worst thing was, when you returned on the boat you were taken to a leather market with a ‘short’ show and were trapped there until the transfers took you back. This is nowhere in the itinerary. It’s mentioned nowhere. They tell you about it once you return, which you can only hear if you’re inside the main area of the boat! If you’re outside it will be a complete surprise. I don’t recommend this at all. If you do decide to go, do some thorough research beforehand so you can figure out what to do on the islands while you’re there.
