Ticket voor Nichupte Lagoon Speedboat & Snorkeltour

Had gehoopt iets meer te zien tijdens de speedbootrit. Het was vooral snelheid en niet gericht op zien wat er in de jungle leeft. Wat dat betreft mag de omschrijving van deze toer wel worden aangepast. Het snorkelen was oke. Vanaf de speedboot wel mooi zicht op de skyline van het strand. Hebben een prima 2 uurtjes gehad maar voldoet totaal niet aan de omschrijving.

Positief was dat we met maar 1 ander koppel aanwezig waren, dit maakte wel dat we bij aankomst op hen moesten wachten voor vertrek. Er mocht na uitleg flink door gevaren worden, wat het spectaculair maakte, alhoewel er bij de mangroven waar rustiger doorheen gevaren werd, (in tegenstelling tot het snorkelen) maar weinig tijd werd genomen om wild life te kunnen spotten. Heen hadden we privé vervoer, maar de gecombineerde terugrit met andere touristen duurde ruim 2u-dit vonden we n groot nadeel

Different to what was advertised, there were no turtles or manatees, for some reason we weren’t allowed to be in the same boat (3 adults) without any explanation despite multiple advertisements of boats with even 4 people on. The best part was the sailing which was fun but the snorkelling gear was very uncomfortable. The boats also had different speeds and if we broke down I felt the guide would’ve just sailed without us. Bring own snorkelling gear and it should be a much better experience.

Excellent guide

The overall tour was great from start to finish, but this could have been we were only a group of two, not the max group (8, I think). The boat driving and and snorkeling were a great experience, with lots of different fishes to see. My son would have liked a big longer to snorkel, I think we had about 30-45 mins. One down side I would comment on is the arrival time. After pickup from the hotel and check-in at the tour we had a 40-50 min wait until the tour actually started. Please look at this.

The speedboat ride was fantastic. The area in the sea where our guide chose for us to snorkel was not good. The water was choppy and there was a strong current. We never saw the reef or any fish. We spent all our time in the water fighting the current and choppy water.
