5.00Seeing wildlife, having a single kayak, guide's knowledge and friendly relaxed manner, the quarry and mangrove reflections in the water plus distance travelled. Only downside was the amount of rubbish was shocking.

4.00We enjoyed the tour and mangrooves. Our guide was very informative and helpful . We got caught in a terrible rain storm so had to take shelter in the mangrooves area and our kids really liked that added bonus. The palau island is EXTREMELY DIRTY and the water is also EXTREMELY DIRTY. Dead fish everywhere and terrible
Good experience.

4.00Overall it's a great experience. But the downside is that it ended 1.5 hours earlier than expected. Shall try out the mangrove kayaking the next time round.
Great adventure

5.00Awesome morning out! Our guide Sheng Min was extremely friendly and very passionate. We really learned a lot about the surroundings of Pulau Ubin and also got in a bit of a workout and some sun. She was also very understanding towards some special needs of people in our group. 5 Stars for the programme and 5 Stars to Sheng min!

5.00It was a fun and relaxing little tour. the tour guide syafiq was very friendly and easy to talk to, he is also knowledgable and was flexible to make tweaks to his original program because the paddlers were all rather proficient, we got to paddle right next among the mangrove trees between the shallow sections. it was interesting to learn about the different type of kelongs as well as the type of wildlife that can be found in singapore. In all a very enjoyable tour.
Good experience to get to know a different part of Singapore
