Some good swim stops if you’re ok with deep water and the second stop at the collagen water beach was nice, but quite busy. The shipwreck viewpoint was stunning. Would suit people who are quite mobile as there is a little bit of hiking involved (pack trainers) and the shipwreck viewpoint is quite rocky.”

There was air conditioning in the van, but it could be better. The boat tour was definitely a highlight of the guide. Definitely recommend sitting in the front of the van as the roads are not great so many people started to feel a bit ill.”
