The Reception
We met at a cafe on Sanur Beach
The location is beautiful but the service at the cafe was chaotic and slow. Four items ordered, four items arrived incorrect. Do not expect a leisurely pre trip breakfast here
The Boat
We travelled on the Lady Manta. This craft was superb. 13 guests in the party offered plenty of room. Water and fruit was provided for the 45 minute trip to first stop, Manta Point
The boat was super-fast particularly on the return trip which proved to be a true 'white-knuckle' ride - thrilling
The Crew
Brilliant, competent, caring and very funny. We were looked after all day long
The Lunch
A buffet style lunch at Armarta Penida. Adequate. That is all. It would have been good to receive some choice other than boiled rice, chicken and vegetables
The location is stunning and we took advantage of the pool area for 2 hours
The Snorkelling
I feel you really need to be a confident swimmer to get the best from this trip. Once in the water, you will be guided, but you must stay with the group without the chance to hop back on the boat when you wish. Once you're in the water, the boat moves away until the group is finished
Manta Point was good. Plenty of these majestic creatures turned up, however, as the water was quite choppy, visibility was not the best.
The last stop to see Turtles off Lembongan was 'an experience'. Yes, we saw turtles, yes there is coral, albeit not so colourful. But the swimming is almost impossible due to the current. We drifted 2kms as a group before the boat picked us up.
If you have previous experiences of snorkelling in the Red Sea or the Maldives, you will be disappointed. But overall the experience was 'okay'
All in all a pretty decent day out

An extremely good value all-rounder trip!
An amazing all rounder. You get a jet boat cruise (fun for some, toil for others), ample snorkelling opportunities (albeit all a bit short side), towels, fruit, water provided and friendly service all day. We were quite lucky to see multiple large manta rays and an array of colourful fish and coral. Some snorkelling sites can be challenging for the panicked swimmer but the guides provide life-jackets, flotation devices and close guidance. The lunch was of a high quality and very filling. Drinks outisde of iced tea will be extra just FYI. Some great footage was taken and memories to cherish forever. If only the day was longer! Some parts felt a bit rushed and of course, expect big crowds at Kelingking beach itself.
Shout out to Olog & Eddy for helping make the day smooth and doing it with cheer and a smile!

Amazing Snorkelling and Land Tour!
The manta rays were incredible! Boat was very very nice, offered cold water bottles and fresh watermelon throughout the trip. Had dry towels for us! Gio and Budi were amazing tour guides. Very enthusiastic and funny. Engaging. Felt very safe. Go pro pictures taken throughout the trip of the sea life were shared with us for free and the lunch was delicious and included! Definitely recommend this trip. Thanks Gio and Budi!

This trip with Nyoman and Tita was great. The four different snorkeling places were very good. We saw mantas, sea turtles and many fish. Beautiful coral. The boat was good quality and the snorkling gear was also very good. It was very well planned and felt safe. The lunch break was well arranged and food was good. An extra bonus was the underwater photos! Personally I could have skipped the excursion to a hill top which had a nice view, I would have preferred additional snorkeling. I especially liked the snorkeling places when there were less other boats and people around. Nyoman and Tita were very calm and experienced - great persons for this trip!

We had overall a great experience on this tour. Unfortunately the Manta Rays did not show up on this particular day but we still had fun snorkelling at the different spots. Big shoutout to our guides O'neill & Putu for keeping us safe and taking photos and videos of us while diving. Would recommend.

A really great day albeit a big one. We did see manta rays and turtles so that was really memorable. The guides were fantastic, helpful and very competent. My favourites were the manta rays and a drift coral experience at the end of the tour, this is where we saw the turtles and the water was quite warm so very enjoyable. There were towels, water and fruit provided on the boat and a lovely Indonesian style buffet lunch in the island. The slight downside for me was the approximately 45 minute drive up to the viewing point for photos of a beach. My understanding and I probably got this wrong was it was a tour of the island which appealed to me. The beach was amazing but there was no access to the beach so it was just viewed from above. It was very busy up there, packed with tourists and very hot. I didn’t really consider 45 minutes there and return in a hot car over very bumpy busy roads warranted for the ability to take photos of the beach. But overall I would do it again for the overall experience. A really lovely day.

Private boat from Sanur to see the Manta Rays.
The boat and crew were amazing. We loved seeing the manta rays. It was also great not fighting the crowd on the fast ferry over.
Snorkeling was fantastic, and the underwater visibility was amazing. Our guides really looked after us so, if you’re not confident in the open water, let them know and they will take care of you.
My only complaint was after an amazing lunch at a fabulous location we all had to make a hot/slow 110 min back braking drive to some instagram famous lookout, which was jam-packed with people and really not worth the drive imo. It would be much better if customers could make a choice to stay on the boat after lunch and kick back and chill, or make the drive for those who love the Insta and can tolerate being hot at angry lol.
