Customer Reviews

It was very informative and lots of fun! - Jana

Die Lagunen Bootstour ist sehr schon gewesen und hat uns allen gefallen und unser Guide Benjamin war klasse. Nur zu empfehlen! - Frank

The boat tour was lovely and our 'skipper' was a really informative and friendly guy. He gave us lots of relevant information as we went round, answered questioned and demonstrated the oysters perfectly. All in all this made for a lovely time. - Nina

Thoroughly enjoyable trip with lots of interesting and relevant knowledge and experiences passed on by the skipper - Robert

Eine schone gemutliche Bootstour durch die Lagune. Der Bootsfuhrer hat einen Uberblick uber die Gegend gegeben. 3 Paare waren an Bord. - Klaus
