Review of Makadi Bay’s Panorama Submarine tour, with reef views, 30-minute snorkeling, hotel transfers, family tips, and honest value advice.
“Great trip, amazing views especially if like me you love to snorkel but will never be able to go diving. Friendly crew, heavy but friendly sales on photos and films taken while aboard, costing as much as the trip itself, but of great quality, so worth it. Collected last and dropped off first on transport so very little waiting around, but a bit of a trek to the boat from drop off point, which isn't ideal, but tricky to get around and could be an issue for less mobile guests or at the height of the days heat.”

“We were at the pier, at the time they told us, and had to wait 1 hour before the ship left. (It was not even at the pier when we arrived) Snorkeling was in a large group and there was a very annoying guide, who always called „hello hello“ as soon as you were swimming a bit further - super annoying. Nice boat, good value for Money.”

“Exceptional Customer Service!: We were very impressed with the entire team. They provided exceptional customer service, picking us up and dropping us off at our hotel right on time. In addition to the amazing boat tour itself, the company manager went above and beyond by sharing interesting historical insights about the city throughout the trip. This unexpected touch added a real depth to the experience and was incredibly valuable. The boat tour was fantastic – we saw beautiful coral reefs and a wide variety of fish. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the tour company to anyone visiting the area, and we'll definitely be using them again on future trips!”

“Nous avons bien eu le transfert de l'hôtel jusqu'à la marina, aller / retour. Nous avons ete conduit jusqu'au bateau. Toutes les explications étaient en anglais. Aucune personne ne parlait français. Nous avons vu des poissons. Tout le monde avait de la place pour s'asseoir. Les fonds sont abîmés. Ils nourrissent pour que les poissons restent bien autour du submarine. Notre fils a beaucoup aimé. Ensuite, possibilité de snorleling. Pensez à prendre un change pour se changer ensuite.”

“We were contacted via Whatsapp by the tour representative on the hotel pick up arrangement. It was a totally fuss free experience, pick up came on time on a mini van together with other hotel guests to the submarine port. Was a short ride from our hotel and we boarded the submarine. We sailed to a nearby area and were told go go down to the submerged part of the ship for viewing the marine life and corals. Amazing views of the undersea. Just too bad that the corals were not very colorful or bright and vibrant probably due to pollution (?). Neverthelss, an amazing experience, the crew took great…”
