Fantastic day out. Everything went very smoothly. Major Tom is a lovely boat. Clean, well equipped. Helpful, friendly crew. Sailed to several spots to snorkel. Good snorkelling gear. Nice lunch. Highly recommended.

This was a lovely day out. The boat was gorgeous and skipper very helpful. The excursion on the island and view were sublime. Thank you!

Hotel pick up was prompt. The cruise was amazing! The hosts really want to give the guests a great experience/show the best parts of Vanuatu. All staff are very friendly. We felt safe and well supervised. My son was the only child and the staff were very accommodating with transporting us closer to the reef/beach given he wasn’t as strong a swimmer. The cruises are popular so recommend booking early

We felt secure and at ease throughout the experience. The tour was warm and welcoming, and we highly recommend it to anyone! Not to mention their dog was the best!
