• Unfortunately very bad organization, communication & garbage.

  Unfortunately, this day did not meet my expectations. The only positive thing was that on 1 January we Snorkel stop actually spotted a manta ray and diving close to you was impressive, but there are the 2 stars. For the rest of the tour I would have given zero stars. I don't have a comparison in Bali, so it's hard to say if it's basically like that, but I was in Egypt & Turkey on such day trips. So organization & communication were extremely bad. I waited 70min in the hotel lobby because it said I will be picked up between 0630 - 0650. 20min buffer I can understand, but I couldn't have breakfast because of it & waited until 0740h without anyone getting in touch. A "no go" for me. Pick-up was in a minivan. This was occupied down to the last place. For me, of course, understandable but the about 1h to the harbor is not more pleasant. At the port, it's a mess. Except that I - from anyone - got a sticker on my arm no communication how the day goes. There was no water there either. At the destination port then chaos again & lots of garbage/dirt. It's a shame to see that people obviously don't care. Organization here also disaster. Nobody knew exactly where they belonged and what would happen next. Issuing equipment was like at the grave table. Fins in 2-3 boxes where you had to dig through yourself. LifeJackets weren't there enough, but not everyone needs them. Again, hardly any communication. Sometimes names were called, but had to be very close to the "guide" to hear it & what, when next happened was always a surprise. When divided on small boats, a similar picture. After more than 4h (0630-1000) there was the first bottle of water. Snorkeling was then at a total of 3 spots. Always about 15-25min and there were always many boats on site, so pure mass tourism, but OK, that was also the case in Egypt. But much better organized there. Lunch was included but the island was really not nice, especially because of all the garbage. Again, nobody knew what to do after diving. Somehow I learned from another participant that there is a return option around 1230 or 1500. I chose the earlier option, but lunch was not ready in time, so you could not take something with you on the ship as I said. Once at the port it was not clear how the return transport was arranged. Luckily had the WhatsApp from the driver in the morning & he then took care that a driver drives us (4 people from 3 different hotels) back. Was then about 1430h back at the hotel without having eaten a bite. When I write this I should only give 1 star...

  The staff were very friendly, the snorkeling was great and the views from the sights were amazing. Our driver was a great photographer and even did some really cool videos. Highly recommend

  

• Just okay - not worth the price

  Unfortunately the snorkelling masks were too wide for my head and took on water. As a result I couldn’t see beneath the surface. I asked the crew, but no alternative was available. The land tour was pretty, but crowded. Good just for photos if that’s what interests you. Our guide couldn’t speak English soo we relied on ChatGPT to tell us about the places we visited. The food was modest in size but quite tasty. In general the staff were friendly and the tour was on time. For the price I wouldn’t recommend it, particularly in the wet season as no Mantas were seen by those who dived.

  

  

• Experience a little disappointing, this excursion perhaps deserves to be made with a private boat.

  Stormy sea .... It’s a bit of a factory, the rays were not there, and the different buddies are not charging each other. The staff is friendly. The views are beautiful but very touristy. Maybe an excursion to do differently.

  A lot of rubbish and plastic in the water, general areas and car parks would not recommend to others. Drove over poorly maintained road to get to the location for lunch. Our driver was a shocker he couldn’t drive to save his life

• The climax of mass tourism

  Snorkeling is done on a boat full of people with very few safety rules. The spots to see its flooded with tourists and there is nothing to see. The afternoon visits concern ultra-tourist places made at the pace of races. Run away.

• Ot was an easy pick up...

  Gokil anyway, this trip is really healing. From the start of snorkeling in Manta Bay to the ground spot, his vibes are really cool. The guide's very chill, no ribet, but we're still on the go. This price is a mindblowing experience, no debate at all. Fix is coming back!

• Dangerous, unsanitary and disorganized

  -We get driven from our hotel by a completely reckless driver, completely chaotic driving during rush hour traffic. -Every step of the way we are getting hearded like sheep. Very poor communication. We're just getting dropped off from spot to spot and eventually someone shouts something to split the group, take you somewhere else, repeat. English is the standard for international communication in Bali, and none of the workers really seemed to know any, which means communicating any instructions was extremely difficult. -They absolutely do not sterilize the snorkles between uses -We arrive on the snorkelling boat which was completely overcrowded. Then we set off with no life jackets??? Insane. We're driving through the waters with probably 6-10 foot/2-3 meter waves, the boat is bouncing all over, there's nowhere to hold on. We get to the first snorkelling spot where the waves are EVEN BIGGER and smashing against rock faces about 30 feet/10 meters away. Obviously, nobody felt safe going in so we didn't and we to the next spot. A real guide should NOT have even offered for us to swim at the spot at all!!!!! The next spot was better, but still really choppy waters. There were too many boats and people all over the place and the driver kept having to yell at people to get away from the motor which is still running!!! -Once we were on land, we got off the boat and left because we were so upset with our experience until then. To their credit, they did organise us a driver and accommodated us on an earlier boat. I cannot believe the reviews for this place, avoid!!!!

• Even for beginners, the snorkeling is a Bali must do.

  The boat and Snorkeling are brilliant; manta bay was up close and personal with the rays, land tour beautiful but spoilt by the roads way too rough.
