A brilliant experience - highly recommend! - Fantastic experience on the water and discovering the islands and life in the area. We travelled with JC who couldn’t have been more helpful, informative, upbeat and friendly. It wasn’t a birdwatching tour but he still made stops to point out birds, gave advice on the best things to do at every island and he made the trip really special by not watching the clock and genuinely loving his job as skipper. We finished the experience feeling like we had way more than our money’s worth and it was an awesome day. Thank you JC - we would highly recommend this trip!

Enjoyable trip - Joao is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and entertaining. His language skills are very impressive, speaking both English and French. We enjoyed our trip and seeing the different islands. The lunch stop had several places to eat a meal. We booked a table through the tour as we weren't sure if anything else would be available but we needn't have worried. Joao took us to the restaurant where we had a table booked and made sure we were okay. The meal we had was delicious, wish I knew what they cook their meat in! Overall an enjoyable trip. If you want to snorkel, you would need to do this instead of wandering around one of the islands, there isn't time to do both.
