good communication - I had a good communication, as there was a bug by default in the App for the reservation I couldn't go. Information for other guests: just be careful that there is no pick up point if you want to go even if the App Viator says so. Marta helped me but sadly I had to do somethink else

Highlight of Our Trip to the Azores! 🌊 - This snorkeling experience was truly one of the highlights of our trip to the Azores! We had the opportunity to see a great deal of species, with amazing diversity that made the experience incredibly rewarding. Our guide, Manuel, was exceptional. Besides being very knowledgeable about all the marine life we encountered, he made sure everyone felt comfortable in the water and ensured that each person had the chance to see everything clearly. Emanuel was an exemplary captain who not only guaranteed our safety at all times but was also very fun and engaging, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere on the boat. Marta was also very kind and friendly. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Azores. It is definitely an experience we would repeat! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
