Great day trip! Very organized and good driver!

This trip was a great day trip from the city! Our driver Adrian was amazing and navigated the truthfully un maintained road through the mountains. The whole experience was seemingly organized, and the tour guide paid particular attention to the members in the group- he rounded all of us up himself when it was time to transfer to the next island. The island people were also nice, and the food they made us was great! We purchased coconuts for $2 each and pina coladas for $10 each (they also had different cheaper alcohol options). It is definitely a long transit there and back for a day trip, but this company made it worth it if that’s all you have time for like we did.
amazing and on point

our tour said "spanish" and everyone in the car only spoke English and poor driver only spoke Spanish but overall the tour was nice and we had a really good time.
Keep these beautiful islands clean!

It is a painful sight to watch marine life dying from tons of plastic entering the ocean (you should learn about coral bleaching, ocean acidification, and climate change). It’s even more painful to watch how tourists leave their trash in these beautiful waters! Tour operators/Viator!!! Please hold your clients accountable and share some rules in your tour descriptions on how to keep these breathtaking beaches clean!
-Be sure to pack a trash bag along with towels when heading to the beach islands...
-Reduce Plastic Use...
-Pick Up Trash When You See It...
Dear visitors, don’t take this beauty for granted, please! We’re all in the shared waters!

So the roads are bad but not as bad as I expected based on the reviews. Got picked up on time, the ride is long and quiet ( driver doesn’t say much ) I didn’t see any wild life. Once you get to the port you have a nice covered boat ride to the islands. That’s the great part it’s definitely worth the journey. The first island is the nicest abs we stay there the longest and get lunch there, they played music which was a nice touch. The natural pool is just okay. The other Island was pretty cool u could walk in shallow warm water about 200ft to an island. The last stop Diablo was my favorite, I decided to snorkel there and ohh my goodness they had beautiful coral abs huge huge fish. Over all awesome trip. I wasn’t looking forward to the drive back but got back safe despite it staring to rain. Also this tour does not charge extra fees like the others so thats definitely a plus. The food was okay and the portions plentiful
Great
