Good but other costs are involved. - A great trip once we were picked up. Was supposed to be a 9am pick up at hotel. 9.30am no one turned up. Called up the number but they could not speak English so hotel reception spoke to them. Did not have my booking but managed to squeeze us on a trip. Watch out for the hidden costs. States the Blue eye and salt water place was free admission. Not the case. Turtles were not part of the trip either. The guide was really really good and did help make the day.
