    I did this trip many years ago. It was a dirt dusty track to Shimoni but now there is a purpose built road which takes less time to travel. The dhow is as you would expect but covered over to shade from the heat. Dive guides were awesome and explained how to use a mask and snorkel if not used before. The lunch was really tasty and an explanation of the Swahili dishes. I would highly recommend this trip. The driver was very knowledgeable about the local area

    We would highly recommend wearing a t-shirt or absolutely bathing in factor 50 sunscreen because you will be cooked. We made a fatal error. Our 2nd day in Kenya and on this trip we got cooked. I spent the next 4 days in agony with blisters on my back and head, this was no joke. Dont be like us its not worth it, wear a t-shirt in the water. You can thank me later. The trip is well worth the money. Oh & get a go pro from temu, the guy will use it and get you some amazing marine life pics & vid

    Die Schnorcheltour war ein tolles Erlebnis. Sowohl der Fahrer als auch die Guides waren zuvorzukommend und auf das Wohl aller Gäste bedacht.

    Alles in Allem war sehr schön, gut organisiert und das Essen war Top. Ich hätte mir mehr Artenvielfalt gewünscht. Ich empfehle diesen Ausflug dennoch gern weiter
