Personale cordialissimo e gentilissimo, sorridente e attento. L’escursione prevede attività di snorkeling in 3 diversi punti strategici, tra i quali Manta Bay dove abbiamo avuto la fortuna di incontrare numerose mante con cui fare video e foto subacquee. Le tappe sono abbastanza veloci, l’esperienza è stata buona. Translate this opinion into English.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, always smiling and attentive. The excursion included snorkeling at three strategic locations, including Manta Bay, where we were fortunate enough to encounter numerous manta rays to take underwater videos and photos of. The stops were fairly quick, and the experience was great. Opinion translated. Show original.

Iba con las expectativas bajas viendo los comentarios, pero fue mejor de lo que esperaba. Aunque no vimos mantas raya, estuvimos un montón de tiempo a remojo viendo otros peces. Buen trato. La comida regular. No dan mucha opción. Mi marido que es alérgico al picante no pudo comer. Luego también se hace larga la espera hasta coger el ferry de vuelta (más de 1 hora). Translate this opinion into English.

I had low expectations, given the reviews, but it was better than I expected. Although we didn't see any manta rays, we spent a lot of time soaking in the water, watching other fish. Good service. The food was average. They didn't offer many options. My husband, who is allergic to spicy food, couldn't eat it. Then, the wait for the return ferry was also long (over an hour). Opinion translated.

Nada recomendable. Para comenzar, nos quisieron cobrar un suplemento por recogernos en nuestro hotel de Jimbaran (cuando esa zona estaba incluida sin recargos según se indica en la descripción de la excursión). Nos recogieron a las 7:00 am, nos dejaron a las 7:20 en el puerto y hasta las 9:15 no salía el barco, es decir, casi dos horas de espera. La excursión consiste en unas dos horas aproximadas en una barca con motor llevándonos a 3 puntos para hacer snorkel. La comida muy escasa y simple.

Not at all recommended. To start, they wanted to charge us extra for picking us up from our hotel in Jimbaran (when that area was included without any extra charges, as indicated in the tour description). They picked us up at 7:00 a.m., dropped us off at the port at 7:20 a.m., and the boat didn't leave until 9:15 a.m., meaning we had to wait almost two hours. The tour consists of approximately two hours on a motorboat, taking us to three snorkeling spots. The food was very sparse and simple.

Puntualidad en la recogida y vuelta a nuestro alojamiento, pero largos ratos de espera desde que llegas al puerto para coger el hidrofoil y más traslados hasta el punto de embarque. La comida nada del otro mundo. Y el paseo por los manglares bonito pero muy escaso de tiempo y muy acelerados en volver al puerto para luego tener que esperar 1hora y media hasta que sale el ferry de vuelta a Bali Translate this opinion into English.

Pickup and drop-off at our accommodation were punctual, but we had long waits from the moment we arrived at the port to board the hydrofoil and then transfers to the boarding point. The food was nothing special. The walk through the mangroves was lovely, but we were short on time and rushed back to the port, only to have to wait an hour and a half for the ferry back to Bali.

La actividad estuvo bien! Lo único que es todo muy deprisa y no da mucho tiempo a las cosas. El paseo por los manglares son 10 minutos por cumplir expediente. Hace calor y no es interesante El resto de cosas que incluye la actividad son interesantes Comida sencilla. Las personas de la actividad son muy amables. Te dan agua y toallas Post snorkel para secarte Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was good! The only thing is that everything is very fast and does not give much time for things. The walk through the mangroves is 10 minutes to complete the schedule. It is hot and not interesting. The rest of the things that the activity includes are interesting. Simple food. The people of the activity are very friendly. They give you water and towels to dry off after snorkeling. Opinion translated. Show original.

Desde nuestra salida de Ubud hasta nuestro regreso todos fueron facilidades. Tras el traslado en barco hasta Nusa nos llevaron a un lugar entre el manglar y en una barca salimos a hacer snorkel en 3 puntos: en el primero vimos más de 12 mantas raya muy grandes. Pudimos nadar a su lado y verlas muy cerca. La siguiente parada cuando mirabas al agua había un arrecife de coral increíble. De 1 o 3 m de profundidad, y la última fue en un lugar con menos profundidad pero también lleno de corales. Translate this opinion into English.

From our departure from Ubud to our return, everything was easy. After the boat transfer to Nusa, we were taken to a place in the mangroves and on a boat we went snorkelling at 3 points: at the first we saw more than 12 very large manta rays. We were able to swim next to them and see them very close. The next stop, when you looked into the water, there was an incredible coral reef. It was 1 or 3 m deep, and the last one was in a place with less depth but also full of corals. Opinion translated. Show original.

Purtroppo causa mare mosso non abbiamo visto Manta Bay, che era uno dei punti forti, ma di certo non è colpa loro. Sarebbe stato interessante anche vedere Kelingking beach, must di Nusa Penida, ma non è previsto. Simpatici e disponibili al warung/centro snorkeling. Carino il giro in barca tra le mangrovie. Anche qua tempi di attesa lunghissimi al porto sia all'andata che al ritorno e anche prima e dopo l'escursione. Translate this opinion into English.

Unfortunately due to rough seas we did not see Manta Bay, which was one of the highlights, but it is certainly not their fault. It would have been interesting to see Kelingking beach, a must in Nusa Penida, but it is not planned. Friendly and helpful at the warung/snorkeling center. Nice boat ride through the mangroves. Here too, very long waiting times at the port both on the way there and on the way back and also before and after the excursion. Opinion translated. Show original.

E’ stata una gita fantastica per me e la mia famiglia. Tutto ben organizzato( nessun problema anche per chi parla poco l inglese come me), bravissimi gli operatori locali che ci hanno accompagnato nello snorkeling dove abbiamo visto le mante e pesci tropicali di ogni genere da vicinissimo. Super anche il fatto che non serviva portare niente, ci hanno fornito tutto il necessario: dagli asciugamani all attrezzatura e l acqua in bottiglia. Ottimo anche il pranzo. Lo consiglio a tutti. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a fantastic trip for me and my family. Everything was well organized (no problem even for those who speak little English like me), great local operators who accompanied us snorkeling where we saw manta rays and tropical fish of all kinds up close. Also great was the fact that we didn't need to bring anything, they provided us with everything we needed: from towels to equipment and bottled water. The lunch was also excellent. I recommend it to everyone. Opinion translated. Show original.

L'esperienza è molto bella e merita sicuramente. Le persone che accompagnano il gruppo nelle varie soste per lo snorkeling sono brave e permettono che il tutto si svolga in sicurezza. Anche il pick up direttamente dall'hotel è stato puntuale. Da organizzare meglio il momento dell'imbarco per l'isola, troppo caotica e senza che vengano fornite informazioni precise su dove andare e cosa fare. Translate this opinion into English.

The experience is very nice and definitely worth it. The people who accompany the group in the various snorkeling stops are good and allow everything to take place safely. Even the pick up directly from the hotel was punctual. The moment of boarding for the island should be better organized, too chaotic and without providing precise information on where to go and what to do. Opinion translated. Show original.

Después de llegar en ferry a Lembongan nos han llevado a la base de operaciones, nos han dado las aletas y chalecos Luego nos hemos subido a las embarcaciones (para 16) y nos han dado las gafas y tubos. Nuestro grupo familiar era de 14 con niños entre 2 y 15 años. Hemos disfrutado de tres inmersiones, sin incluir Manta Bay, por el estado del mar. De vuelta a la base comida a base de cocina balinesa y una travesía por los manglares. La organización, en la base como en el mar, muy buena. Translate this opinion into English.

After arriving by ferry to Lembongan we were taken to the base of operations, given fins and vests. Then we boarded the boats (for 16) and were given goggles and snorkels. Our family group was 14 with children between 2 and 15 years old. We enjoyed three dives, not including Manta Bay, due to the state of the sea. Back at the base we had a meal based on Balinese cuisine and a trip through the mangroves. The organisation, both at the base and at sea, was very good. Opinion translated. Show original.

La organización estuvo muy bien, teniendo en cuenta que utiizas cuatro medios de transporte, pero la actividad es justita, de los cuatro snorkels solo uno valió la pena, las otras tres ubicaciones fueron poco atractivas, además no vimos mantas raya. Comida al final y posobilidad de ducha y cambiarse. Mucho trajín para tan poco

The organization was very good, considering that you use four means of transport, but the activity is very limited. Of the four snorkels, only one was worth it, the other three locations were not very attractive, and we did not see any manta rays. Food at the end and the possibility of showering and changing. A lot of hassle for so little.

La actividad estuvo bien y vimos muchos peces pero nos decepcionó no ver tortugas ni mantas rayas; entiendo que es algo que no se puede preveer pero por lo que nos comentaron los monitores es muy raro que se puedan ver aunque lo pone en la actividad y aparecen fotos de tortugas. El personal fue muy amable y todo estuvo muy bien.

The activity was good and we saw lots of fish but we were disappointed not to see any turtles or manta rays. I understand that it is something that cannot be foreseen but from what the instructors told us it is very rare to see them even though it is stated in the activity and there are photos of turtles. The staff was very friendly and everything was great.

Nos lo pasamos genial. Muy bonita experiencia poder nadar entre peces de colores y ver el coral. Como único punto negativo, decir que vas con bastante gente en el bote, en nuestro caso chinos, algunos de los cuales o no sabían nadar bien o por cuestión cultural, se abrían paso a empujones en el agua para subir al barco o para agarrarse al flotador (incluso a costa de nuestros hijos pequeños). Menos mal que los que los guías estuvieron muy pendientes y les ayudaron un montón️ Translate this opinion into English.

We had a great time. It was a great experience to swim among colorful fish and see the coral. The only negative point is that you go with quite a few people on the boat, in our case Chinese, some of whom either didn't know how to swim well or, for cultural reasons, had to push their way through the water to get on the boat or grab onto the float (even at the expense of our small children). Luckily, the guides were very attentive and helped them a lot. Opinion translated. Show original.

Des de la recogida por la mañana, hasta el transporte en barca y los sitios de buceo... Todo muy bien. Aun sin saber inglés es fácil de seguir, solo te has de dejar llevar. Hemos visto mantarayas, delfines y mil peces de colores. ¡Genial! Amabilidad y simpatía a montones, muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

From the morning pickup, to the boat transportation and the dive sites... Everything was very good. Even without knowing English it is easy to follow, you just have to let yourself go. We have seen manta rays, dolphins and a thousand colorful fish. Brilliant! Kindness and sympathy galore, highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.
