    De tour is heel druk bezocht met boten en andere kayaking. Deze maatschappij ging goed om met de drukte en bleven vriendelijk en kalm.

    De gidsen waren erg ervaren letten goed op de veiligheid van iedereen, het kan best druk zijn op sommige plekken maar, ze houden alles goed in de gaten. Je peddelt langs en in de grotten, geheime strandjes, stoppen overal even zodat je kunt kijken en aan het einde kan je ook nog even zwemmen.

    Vriendelijke lokale gids, die met veel enthousiasme vertelt over het ontstaan van de grotten Op het begin moesten we even zoeken bij wie moesten zijn en waar er een parking was. Maar hierna werden we vriendelijk ontvangen.Je krijgt de mogelijkheid om spullen die je niet gebruikt veilig op het droge land te laten en waardevolle spullen in een watervaste tas, die aan de kajak vast wordt gebonden mee te nemen. Over foto's maken moet je je geen zorgen maken. Dit wordt door de gids gedaan.
