Nice tour, we would do it again, even though the engine is a bit loud.

It is a fun family outing. You definitely see fish. They are fed so you can see them clearly. You won't see turtles or dolphins, but that shouldn't spoil the fun. You also see litter floating around; it's good that the children notice that too. You sail around an island while sitting in the lower deck of the submarine. Afterwards, you go up on deck and enjoy the coastline. Meanwhile, something is told about the fish and the buildings along the coast. It is all great fun!
