Es war aussergewöhnlich und supergut organisiert ,pünktlich vom Hotel abgeholt ,unser Guide gab uns und unseren beiden Mitreisenden zuverlässige Informationen .Wir waren gesamt 4 Gäste /2Paare , es war sehr entspannt . es wurden mehrere Dörfer angefahren ,mann sollte dazu wissen , das überalll wo man hinkommt Trinkgeld erwartet wird ,da kommd doch noch einiges zusammen ,was der Tour aber auf jedenfall angemessen erscheint .die Nacht im Zelt auf der Sandbank , mit Lagerfeuer und Sternenhimmel ist unglaublich !!!!! und jeden Euro wert . Ich kann jedem Naturliebhaber diese Tour nur ans Herz legen .Dazu kommt ,das es den Menschen dort in der Region hilft ein einkommen zu haben ,um auch die Zukunft der Delfine zu sichern.Dazu kommt noch ein kleiner Beitrag zum Umweltschutz.
