Whole trip was well planned with safety and enjoyment high on the agenda Max our mother duck (as she called it) made sure everyone had a good time and could not have done more for everyone on board our driver Dan had moments of what seemed like madness with his piloting of the boat - but it certainly made it exciting and himself showed a great sense of humour towards all ages on board

What an adventure….the experience was amazing. The information on the area was very interesting. I’ve seen an area many locals haven’t experienced I’m so impressed. Great value for money. Highly recommend.

Best activity to do in Aiirlie! Tommy and Scotty were fantastic. So entertaining and enthusiastic. Everything about it was perfect.
