Our captain Kareem and guide Ahmed (sorry if I’ve spelt names wrong) were very welcoming. The islands were beautiful and we were able to spot some dolphins also. Having a guide with the group on each of the islands and during the snorkelling was very beneficial. Lunch was also nice and refreshments were given throughout the day. Would highly recommend this trip.”
