1.00These thieves agreed to pick us up at our Condo which Viator CONFIRMED! They did not pick us up. Instead they stole over $300, and refused to refund. That has cost Viator our future business, and likely legal action. DO NOT USE THIS PROVIDER. Viator should cancel relationships with them.
So much fun! Alex and...

5.00Such a cool experience looked like glitter under the water. They provide suits so you don't get stung. They give you noodles to help you float because they don't want your feet touching the ground because there's little jellyfish down there. The water is shallow about 4 or 5 ft
