Trip was good overall. Our tour guide Lana was amazing, kind and very informative. One complaint is that on the tour radar site, it says that airport pickup is included, however it was not included and the tour company was not willing to accommodate despite the website being incorrect which was frustrating. The rooms were also not that great, I paid extra for a top deck room however there was a leak in our bathroom. Whenever we flushed the toilet water would come out of the bottom and seep onto the floor. As a result, the bathroom stunk for the entirety of the trip. The rooms were also very small. That being said, the captain and crew were amazing. The rest of the ship was great and the food onboard was very good. I also enjoyed the itinerary and that we got to see some of the less touristy islands on the trip. The daily swim spots were beautiful. Overall, I would recommend the trip.Show more

The overall experience was excellent! Though I've been on trips with solo travel groups before, I'd never taken one on a sail boat. The explanations and everything leading up to the tour was transparent and very clear. The itinerary had to change due to weather conditions but the guide and the crew did a great job of keeping the adventure going and keeping us out of harm's way. If the itinerary wasn't sent out beforehand, I wouldn't have even known these were deviations from the original plan because it wall still worked out great!Show more
