From prior communication when making a reservation to the tour itself and returning photos, it was a satisfactory tour. I went with two elderly people in their 80s, and they really enjoyed it. The meal on board was also the most delicious of the Kota itinerary, and I was able to enjoy it very comfortably. I recommend!

I made a reservation a day before considering the weather and other schedules, but the reservation was successful, I would regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't, the Korean guide kindly guided me around, and the local staff took care of my child swimming in the sea when adults were sick of motion sickness. I was impressed. It was a bit uncomfortable to eat raw food locally, but it was a move of the barbecue god on board. Highly recommended! Super recommended!

Fortunately, 5 people in my party applied, and only 5 of us chartered the boat and went there~^^ The Korean guide's kind guidance and barbecue on board~ We ate and played well~ Above all, the children had fun and had fun fishing~ There were some waves and the mothers suffered from motion sickness... It got better after a while~ The smell of the barbecue was so strong~ I caught a fish and the motion sickness disappeared~ I was a little worried because the price was cheap... Don't worry and apply~ Taking pictures with a good camera is a bonus~~^^ Be prepared with snorkeling equipment (face).. Flippers.. Paddle boats.. I had a good time~ I want to go again!

Starting with the pickup, there was nothing disappointing about anything. Fortunately, only our number of people were on board, so we were able to play comfortably. 👍👍 The water looked muddy due to the rain the night before, so they moved the snorkeling point to a more convenient place, and we had a lot of fun riding the paddle board. I fell into the water while trying to stand up on the board, but I couldn't come up again, so I hung up and asked for help, so he even came to rescue me. He even cooked the fish he caught. Children who were too small were released to bring their parents. 😋 It's a pity that the guide was upset because he fell into the water while preparing the grill for the bbq, but he kindly responded that he would replace it with a steamed or fried dish, and even cooked fish with his own special sauce. One of the group was struggling with motion sickness, so I was very satisfied with the fact that they finished the tour a little early 😄😄 I highly recommend it!

I don't often write reviews, but I had a really, really good time, so I'm leaving a review like this. Since Kota is famous for sunsets, I thought it would be nice to see the sunset on the sea, so I searched for Sunset Ocean Safari and booked EXO in Borneo. I was so thankful that guide D.O took care of everything from playing in the water, food, and photos in detail and caring! I had a really, really good time thanks to the guide~~ Thank you again~~!!!
