    Tour had great mix of activities included, plus enough free time to relax. Coco (tour manager), and team at our guest house - Lily Rest were amazing! Always available to help with any assistance needed. Hope to go back to Maldives to visit more islands in future.

    The mathaveri Inn manager was 17 years old and not very organized. Does not show up on time and very detached.

    We had a great time but didn’t get what we signed up for. Firstly we paid extra for our first night in Hulhumale to get a balcony and ocean view. When we got there, we were sent to a completely different hotel with no balcony or ocean view. Then the tour we went on was completely different to what we signed up for. We still had a great time but it definitely wasn’t what we were expecting. We are not sure what happened or where communication fell over. Our guide told us the tour we signed up for didn’t exist and that this had happened before with Bamba. Haven’t had a chance yet to contact Bamba and see what happened but I won’t be using them in the future.
