    YOU MUST DO THE SUNSET TOUR!!! We used first excursions to book jet ski’s and the sunset experience on the buggies. The company is very organised and communicates really well, we got picked up from our hotel for the sunset experience and the driver arrived on time. It is an ABSOLUTE MUST DO, you will not regret it. We were worried as it was cloudy on the day we had this booked but once you are above the clouds the sky is unreal. I have never done anything like this before it is so worth the money. But take a jacket/jumper as it is so cold when you go through the clouds, they didn’t tell us this and we were freezing!! You can take snacks and drinks with you but they do provide water. You can buy the neck covers there for €5.

    We found this place, as we watch Matt on Facebook and TikTok. I messaged the number linked to there Facebook page and they got back to me straight away answering my questions and told me where the nearest shop was. We walked there, only 20 minutes away right by the golden mile. Lorena was there, smile at the ready, and helped us within 5 minutes. Gave us all the information we needed and walked out happy and ready to go on the trips we have booked. Thank you Lorena, you are a credit to the company!! Xx

    Super family boat trip We chose this trip on Lindsay’s recommendation and we were not disappointed. From coach collection to drop off was seamless. The catamaran was lovely and the crew were fantastic. We paid for the beds which really enhanced the trip. The sandwich was basic but tasty and the sangria was lovely. We were fascinated with the pilot whales and how close they came to the boat. And the dip in the sea was very refreshing! It was a very enjoyable experience for all the family. Recommend travel tablets.
