Then we wandered a little further and got to see pilot whales. It was so amazing. The staff and the boat were all great. I would definitely repeat this trip.”

“This was an amazing day out, highly recommend. The equipment was all to a good standard, Mario was our tour guide and he was great - incredibly friendly and so knowledgeable. The cave was insane and felt like you got plenty of time there and at the beach after. Make sure to dress appropriately for the walk to the cave, it’s about 20-30 minutes with limited shade gets very sweaty very quickly!”

“Excellent day, the trainers are so confident and reassuring. They know the horse’s behaviours so well. Felicia was a bit naughty when she was in the school but they knew when she was out on the path she was fine which she absolutely was, Luther was my horse and he was beautiful. Very loving from the get go nuzzling in and falling asleep on my shoulder before we rode. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and thank you for taking the time to experiment my drone and see if it was safe for us and others, allowing me to capture some great shots. Very kind of you!Read more”
