Best kept secret! - The scenery was beautiful and learning from Dieter at the same time, without really "learning" was time well spent.

Superb marine guide - The tour was an absolute delight. We thoroughly enjoyed it and my son who is 11 was kept intrigued through out. Dieter's passion and patience is contagious and he manages to bring things into perspective. I would recommend this for everyone. Just make sure you allow yourself time to enjoy it.
