“Absolutely incredible experience and would thoroughly recommend this private snorkelling excursion. Abdul was brilliant! Knew all the best places to go and captured lots of incredible footage for us. Was able to get the turtles to swim alongside us and get thousands of fish around us. And able to get down to the statues and capture some video without the thousands of other people there spoiling it! He was so supportive and helpful and nothing was too much to ask. Totally loved the morning out and an experience that we will remember forever. Can’t recommend highly enough and Abdul and Erman were just brilliant! Amazing!”
