The weather was nice, the crew was very funny, and we saw beautiful islands. We did some cliff jumping, and mostly, we chose Green Gecko for our trip because they were cheaper and offered free rum from 5 pm to 11 pm, unlike other companies that charged a lot for drinks. The view was excellent. We loved the tour, crew, and food, it was an amazing experience. We highly recommend Green Gecko.Posted on Laurie BVerified No excursion because Typhon but fully refunded 🫶🏼 Unfortunately, we were unable to complete the expedition due to a mega typhoon, but we wanted to highlight the exceptional quality of the team’s communication.
