5Savvy
We had a fantastic day at Savvy and rhe snorkeling experience was outstanding. The only thing that let it down was that our ride back never turned up. We waited an hour for it then gave up. Noone to ask for help. Ended up having to get a taxi back to the hotel.
5Value for money, a good day out.
Staff were very polite and knowledgeable. Pick up from hotel on time. Free drink on board. Free drink when we got to Savvy on the Bay. Free drop off back to hotel at 5.20pm. Overall VERY good value for money. Thank you
