“Fantastic tour and well worth the early pickup. I had some reservations about how busy it would be, but perfect. So many people make your day up from Francis our excellent driver, looking after us for 14 hours, and the team at the whale watching experience who get you organized and in the water as fast as can be achieved .. for us 6:20am.. superb experience. Definitely go for the go pro option and take your own snorkel if you can as you don't get the tube which makes layout about for longer tricky. Then off to the Canyoneering which was one of the best things we have done for…”

“So here’s my review of this trip. We got picked up from our hotel (Plantation Bay Resort) around 3am by our driver Ludz. He explained to us how far the ride to Oslob would be which usually around 3 hrs. We ran into a road block in the middle of the road so he had to reroute us. Me and my fiance was able to sleep still even though we didn’t get to Oslob till around 7am. We got our tickets but we had to wait which I didn’t mind since it was packed! So many people were excited just as we were to swim with the majestical whale sharks.…”
