A bar friend if he still drank. - Youri was an awesome tour guide and a generally great guy to be around. Our group was mixed language (Dutch/ English), and Youri took the time to talk in both so no one missed a detail.

cool kayak tour through nature that stays with you - yuri really makes the difference and knows how to tell lots of fun facts about nature and the island in a relaxed way, just ask him about the ‘nurse shark’.

Very fun day! - This was a great tour. It was a unique experience to kayak through the mangroves and then snorkel there as well. We saw many beautiful colors of sponges (orange, purple, yellow, orange and blue) and many fish as well and even some upside down jellyfish. They are harmless and we could even touch them. On the kayak to and from the mangroves we saw sea turtles too. Yourri, the guide provided basic snorkel equipment. We had a fruit punch drink and stoopwaffle snack at the end. It was a no frills trip but well worth it!! You even get a little exercise with all of the paddling.

Stan the man - Ill start by saying we loved our guide, Stan. Fantastic sense of humor and shared alot of great information and stories. The kayaking aspect of the trip was great. Exploring and sneaking through mangroves and mangrove passages was a unique experience. With regards to the snorkeling, I would say that its a bit of an afterthought. While it was fun to get up close to the roots and see all the creatures, it was very short. Visibility in one direction was ok but coming back everything was kicked up from the group. I assume the snorkeling is limited due to the protected nature of the mangroves but a bit more time or wider area to explore would have made this 5 stars.

We can say we’ve done it! - This was a good experience. We learned interesting information about the mangroves and saw some cool things during the snorkeling portion of the tour. Only downside were the mosquitoes when we were in the mangrove tunnels.

Very nice and educational - Definitely worth it. Much learned from the mangrove, only the transparent soil was of limited added value that day due to the murky water

Nice experience but had too high expectations. - Nice experience to sail through that mangrove tip mosquito repellent in advance is not a superfluous luxury. The guide we had was Dutch and told nice things. After a while of canoeing you come out in the middle of the mangrove where you go snorkeling.....I personally really expected more of it and to see fish and beautiful things but unfortunately almost nothing to see 😒. Despite everything, it was nice to have experienced.
