Amazing tour, the guide is well adapting the pace to everyone in the group, giving a helping hand if needed and accompanying the tour with some stories about the history of the island!

Sin duda una de las mejores excursiones que he hecho. Desde el primer remo hasta el último, todo fue espectacular. El agua estaba cristalina, casi como espejo, y en cuanto nos alejamos de la orilla el paisaje se volvió increible: acantilados enormes, cuevas naturales que desgraciadamente no pudimos recorrer en kayak porque se levantó mucho viento, el resto genial. El ritmo fue perfecto, ni muy exigente ni aburrido, así que se disfruta tanto si vas en forma como si no remas desde hace tiempo.
