It was a great experience for myself and my family, we really enjoyed the boat cruise. The captain shared some great memories with us about the rich history of the luxury boat water front. He is such a friendly guy and passionate about his job.

Everything about the canal cruise was amazing, the driver (Thami) is a ball of great energy and there was great conversation.
He took the best pictures and he sang for my husband, as it was his birthday. Thami is a keeper, that’s for sure😁.. loved every moment of the experience.

Siya was driving our boat and he was very knowledgeable on the place, friendly and we were safe. He also takes good pictures by the way. We had a lovely experience. We can only wish the trip took longer and we had way more to see.
Tip: Put on some sunscreen

We were in Thami's boat and he was so amazing, he took such nice pictures of us as a family. The lagoon is nice but it's small. All in all the boat cruise was well worth it.

The Driver engaged the participants and related to all of the passengers, through taking of pictures, narrating the history around places we passed...
