Amazing day with tropical sea adventures

5.00Wow what a day we spent with Dario and team onboard tropic sea adventures. Everything was 1st class!!! Communication via email was quick and efficient. Deposit paid for a private 4 hour trip to swim with the pigs, we visited the sea turtles, went snorkelling over a beautiful reef and spent over an hour on a picturesque beach. Dario is a true gentleman, I mentioned we were coming from Scotland 🏴 to celebrate my nephew 12 birthday and he wanted to swim with the famous Bahamas pigs, Dario arranged everything and even surprised my nephew with a birthday cake. We also had an issue with my credit card being blocked, Dario was very understanding. Thankfully we had it sorted before the tour. We are hoping to return to Nassau bahamas next summer and will definitely be looking to hire Dario again as this trip was 5 stars.
Great experience! 5 stars
