Summary: Let me start by saying I was not actually able to go on this excursion (due to MY circumstances) so this rating is for their excellent customer service. We were scheduled to sail and the night before, my wife became violently ill, was still sick the following day. I called to inform the tour we would not be able to make it, expecting a 'Sorry, we can't refund your $$ on such short notice.' Rather than that response, they rescheduled our trip !! Very accommodating !! Unfortunately my wife was still ill days later, but these guys did everything they could to try and work it out for us. I will definitely schedule this excursion next time on the island !!!
