Lovely trip. Took us into pirate caves for photos. Really chilled atmosphere. Nice little 90 min stop. Beach at panormo is a bit scruffy in places eg. Cigarette ends in the sand, but thats obviously not the fault of the company. Lads piloting boat very friendly to other water users we met. Admin side of things easy and the girls at the booth were lovely. Everyone in our party loved it and for most it was their favourite activity!

A fantastic 3.5-hour tour that's perfectly organized and has so much to offer. You see a lot, take a boat ride into a cave, and have plenty of time to swim, eat, or relax. We'd do it again anytime.
