“The travel in the jeeps was great fun. The off-road route gave some fantastic views as well as an exhilarating time. the regular water-fights were as welcome as they were timely as it was a very hot day and we dried off very quickly anyway. the food was also tasty and exactly as you'd expect with salad, pasta, chicken and herbs and spices. there was the opportunity to purchase cold drinks and snacks at the two main stops as well as on the boat [if you selected the option). swimming in the water was refreshing and cool. Additional costs to bear in mind when you go; It's wise to purchase…”

The boat trip was an hour, and basically, we went out of the harbour, round the point and back. The crew tried to make it fun. I thought this was…”

The team on board are lovely, can’t complain about the food and the kids loved the jumping from the boat as well as the foam party. A bit pushy with the pictures so don’t partake if you don’t want to buy them as they do print them as well as other souvenirs so can be a bit miffed if you don’t want them.”
