Activité et sympa et familiale

Moment partagé entre une dizaine de personne. Activité orchestrée par Tim qui a été un hôte adorable, il a pu nous raconter de nombreuses anecdotes sur la ville et sur l’île que nous avons visité

Great trip

This was a great trip. After a short boat ride out, we had an informative guided tour around the island and the whole family had a great time. Took my 1year old and 3 year old and both loved it. Highly recommend.
