It was amazing! So cool to be so close to such an amazing creature! If you are on the fence, don’t be. Do it!

This was amazing! There were around 15 manta rays swimming around us! They sometimes slightly touch you, although you can't touch them. Amazing, just amazing.

The Manta Ray experience was great. Misty fixed an issue Viator wouldn’t fix and I appreciated her taking the time to do this.
