Sicuramente il rapporto qualità prezzo è un punto di forza. Negli anni ho fatto circa una decina di tour di questo tipo, si possono migliorare il cibo e la gestione dello snorkeling (troppo breve e frettoloso, con stop sempre attorno alla stessa posizione del reef). I ragazzi della barca e le guide sono stati molto bravi e attenti per farci vivere una bella giornata.

È stata un 'esperienza davvero unica. Mustafa è stato il nostro istruttore nel battesimo in acqua e nei 10 minuti di immersione. Un ragazzo davvero gentile. Mi ha fatto sentire subito tranquilla e grazie alla sua serenità mi sono goduta tutto benissimo. Il giro in barca è stato molto bello, il cibo molto buono. Giornata top

Hi, gladly sending you feedback. - We paid for a 3-point snorkeling experience and instead 2 were done. - ⁠We did not go to tiran island. - ⁠Included in the package was the snorkeling kit that we were asked to pay for on board, when it was already paid for

Went with my girlfriend on a super sunny day – bring extra sunscreen, trust me. The ride out to Tiran Island took a while (felt a bit draggy tbh), but once we got there? The coral reefs were BRIGHT and full of those little blue fish. Crew was chill, but wish there was a bit more shade on the boat. Lunch was basic but hit the spot after all that swimming. Would’ve given 5 stars if not for the slow start at the marina – we waited nearly 45 min before getting on. Still, totally worth it for the views!
