Fun family outing - We had a great time snorkeling and seeing the monkeys in the forest. Feeding the turtles in the cave was also very fun, but watch out because they like to bite!

Highly Recommend - Loved this tour! The variety of stops—Starfish Beach, The Rock, Paje Beach, Jozani Forest, and Salaam Cave—made the day feel full and exciting. Our guide, Daniel, was the best—super sweet and made sure we saw everything we came for, especially swimming with the turtles, which was a priority for us. Definitely follow the recommendation to book The Rock in advance—great food and such a cool spot! We saw tons of fish and starfish while snorkeling, and the monkeys at Jozani were adorable. Highly recommend this tour!

Rainy day but worth it! - Reliable company, the salam cave was amazing, the water is clear and the turtles are so pretty! It rained during much of the snorkeling part but it was still great! Note that you’re supposed to make a reservation at the Rock if you want to eat there. Luckily our guide was able to still get us a table! We also saw the monkeys just before the rain started again, what a treat!

Fantastic day - A fantastic day spent on this tour. Our guide Abdul was great, so friendly and knowledgeable, he let us do each activity at our own pace. Ali our driver made us feel very safe and the transport was very clean and comfortable. The starfish and monkeys were amazing as was the lunch at the Rock

Great tour, great tour guide. - Really great tour! We enjoyed our day with Abdul looking for monkeys, snorkeling in pristine waters, looking for starfish as well as a great lunch with a nice view. He was very well informed and made sure we got to do everything at our own pace. This is a great tour and highly recommended for those wanting to see 100s of starfish, a trip through the jungle & great snorkeling

Couldn’t expect more - We couldnt ask more of our guide Abdul. Super informative, really felt that we were looked after throughout the trip and didn’t want it to end. Very much recommend requesting him as your guide when booking. Cherry on top was that in a place where nobody rushes anywhere he was early to pick us up. Fantastic day!

Too expensive for what it was - The guide didn’t smile once, was incredibly quiet, and honestly quite unhelpful. In fact, there wasn’t much for him to guide anyway — just having a driver would have sufficed and saved us some money. He didn’t communicate the schedule properly, and we only ended up eating lunch at 3:30 PM after we asked if it was possible to stop, as he didn’t seem inclined to bring it up himself. We did see monkeys and a mangrove, but the location felt strange. I noticed a sign on the left side of the road for the entrance to Jozani Forest, but instead, we turned right and stopped on a dusty road to take pictures of some monkeys there. It was odd, and it made me wonder what happened to the entrance fee for Jozani Forest, which was supposedly included in the tour. Into someone’s pocket, perhaps? As for the snorkeling spot, it was disappointing, with almost nothing to see. In the end, I wouldn’t have complained if the tour hadn’t been so expensive.
