Traveler reviews
“Good experience on the boat. Excellent entertainment. The amount of drinks and beverages is not truly unlimited, but they keep you hydrated. The lunch is average, but it is understandable since it is on an island. They should be more demanding with the service to the clients of the drivers, as ours was somewhat unpleasant and at times rude.”
