“The best thing was that we could vary between snorkeling, swimming and being on the paddle board. It was so much fun doing everything and the crew was very attentive and friendly too. Would recommend it to everyone, who wants to enjoy the sun and the sea, as well as boat trips. The catamaran was very modern and clean. Also enjoyed the food and the drinks, everything was delicious and the crew was also very considerate of allergies or dislikes and very chill about everything. That made the experience even better but the most beautiful view was the sunset when we started to get back to the port.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 162 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $250

“Overall, we enjoyed the tour. The tour comes with a driver (in our case a very nice guy who did a nice job) but it does not come with a tour guide. Consequently, there is not a great deal of historical/biblical detail provided at each of the stops. If you are looking for detailed insights related to the Apostle Paul and/or each of the historical suites I would recommend hiring a tour guide.”
