Good but not great

The boat itself is very nice and has all required amenities. The staff is very lovely and helpful. The food very good with 5 course lunch, snacks and drinks. They were happy to accomodated our dietary restrictions which we really appreciated. The activies part needs some work. We really enjoyed the overall sailing experience and kayaking. But the cave tour part is pretty much a tourise trap.there is no cave tour to start with. Caves are closed and they just take you around the cave in small rowing boat. They really need to work on the activities. So overall, do it if you enjoy 5 course meal and kayaking.

The caves were amazing

The caves and scenery were amazing. It was great to walk through there and I suggest taking your time. Don't be rushed as it's a steep climb but worth the view.
