Customer reviews
Very nice trip. The cruise although not new but still well-maintained. Cabin was comfy and staff was super friendly. Activities were fun, especially kayaking. The cave tour was packed with tourists so we didn't like it as much.
Overall a nice experience for our family.
A pleasant stay, and excellent treatment, everything was very clean and the staff very friendly.
The food was great. If I have to say something, it is the price of the drink, since it is not included in the package and is high.
The boat, in general, is quite good, at times you feel like you are not at sea. Recommended!
Great cruise. Mr. Dan is very enthusiastic, the service style is very good, the food is suitable, the staff is enthusiastic, and our family will come back to experience it soon.
The boat is large and comfortable, the food is buffet style and they have a good variety, although be careful with intolerances, etc. because they don't control too much. The staff is super friendly and they are eager to help.
In general, the experience is good and the place is stunning.
