Really carefree day. Jero our driver was phenomenal and made the long drive from the hotel so enjoyable (each party gets their own car to the location). The snorkeling got us SO CLOSE to all kinds of colourful fish. The traditional boat was fun. And for those who couldn’t swim, the guides went with them and made it possible for everyone to experience. The guides were guided by the group as to when we were ready to move to the next spot so that was great. The lunch was delicious with your choice of menu at a local cafe. The price was so good given it included lunch and literally 4 hours of driving us to and from our hotel in Jimbaran which was literally 2 hours from the location. Would definitely recommend.

Our driver Arjana was great, he was very friendly and he told us a lot about the culture of Bali. We saw amazing fishes and even a turtle during snorkeling, so that was really what we were looking for. However, as soon as we arrived at the snorkeling location, everything felt rushed and the time we had for snorkeling was limited.
