“It was fantastic. Our quad bike guide was Mark who did a wonderful job leading us safely around the island. Our buggy experienced a mechanical problem about 10 min into the tour, thankfully, a replacement was quickly brought to us so we could continue the day. Lunch was included, and a couple other stops including a refreshment break. Also the two boat trips were very good. This was December 2025 and we can say we’d like to do it again. It was fun!!”

“This is one of the worst experience ever ! I had planned a boat trip for my girlfriend, who had birthday. The reservation was at 9:30 , we were at the destination ,which they sent us at 09:33 ( as it was written on the site we had also 5 more minutes to go there ) and no one was there ! We tried to contact them with messages and they didn’t even reply ! As for the money , of course we didn’t take anything back (the cruise costed 130€). It was really disappointing and I would never recommend this awful behaviour 👎🏻”
