"What a blast! Best value for money adventure ever. Great company, friendly, efficient and made sure everyone had a super experience. I am old so went on the pirate tour not quite knowing what level it would be.
Perfect adrenaline rush after basic skills taught. I will go back for next level up because it was so good. Thank you team. I felt alive again. Special thanks to my boat captain. You are fantastic in your role. Janine"Janine · July 2026
