Good tour with beautiful stops. True, it was a cloudy day the snorkeling wasn't great, but definitely still worth it. The kayaking was a fun addition.

Although the snorkeling experience wasn't impressive, I think that it isn't as bad as you might think if you're on a budget. Even if you have a lot of tourists in this area, you can find very nice and quiet spots to either take pictures or relax.

Though beautiful to look at, none of the islands in this tour were ideal for snorkeling. The water was not clear at all! The lunch served was also minimal and nothing special. The highlight, perhaps, would be the kayaking, which is not included in this but we paid extra for it when we saw the option available onsite. It was indeed an experience! But if your agenda is to snorkel - not recommended!

Maybe we were unlucky, but none of the 4 places we stopped were suitable for snorkelling at all - the visibility was less than 1m, there were many many boats churning up the sand and a lot of jellyfish. It was overall feel was very rushed and not the relaxing snorkelling tour we were hoping for. The food was ok. Adding on the kayaking option was the only part that made the day worthwhile.

This was definitely a highlight of our trip! Mr. Baw was attentive, funny, informative and the food was the best we had on a tour. The long boat was a nice way to travel, much preferred to the speed boat tour we had done previously. The snorkeling was good and we highly recommend the kayak option as we were able to get into the lagoon w/ the kayak (the tide was too low for the longboat to spend much time there) as well as kayak through caves.
