“Over priced rip off. Get my guide says starts at 8am but it was closer to 10am before we even set sail. Disgusting false advertising. Way more money than tours available in town. Price for the same tour everywhere is about 1000 peso cheaper. I asked many people who paid way less on my actual boat. This is a con. Get your ticket in Coron. Over crowded tour also. Starting at 8am would have beaten the crowds but everywhere was packed before we even set sail. It’s worth getting together some people and paying between you for a private tour. This is an over priced joke. I’ve traveled all over…”
