Jun 26, 2024The tour was extreemly well organized. Even I was travelling solo I felt safe all the time. Tourguide Ahmed was really helpful all the time and was providing instructions to the group on Russian, English and Italian language. Photographer Faisal was taking really good photos for all of us. I had lot of fun and would recommend this tour for solo female travellers

Jun 26, 2024Thank you for providing memoriable and wonderful experience. Our guide was so professional and nice, and made sure to help everyone with everything. He spoke three languages(English,Italian and Russian). Snorkeling in clear sea water was one of my best experiences so far. Snorkeling equipment can be rented on the way to the park during short stop. This tour gives you a nice look to all the national park’s sights and you get a nice experience for snorkeling with guidance. Snorkeling session was long enough(1hr) and after that you were ready to see everything else on that area. 100% recommended.

Jun 26, 2024We had a great 1/2 day trip! We had a guided snorkeling tour, we swam at Magic Lake and saw some other nice places. A couple of things I wish I had more info about before: - On the way there's a stop to rent scuba equipment. Most people rented a floating jacket. It's best to bring cash USD or EUR for this. - A photographer joined us and took nice pictures. They cost 20$ + tip. Completely optional and worth it in my opinion.
