Pick up from hotel was on time however driver failed to check my ticket then drove me to the wrong place, he took me to the bus terminal instead of the pier for the speedboat. I missed the service and arrived at 10.05 luckily the 10am had not departed so I was rushed onto this boat.

We had a great day seeing the beautiful Hong Island. Tony and his team were kind, experienced, helpful, and great tour guides. Kayaking around Hong Island was such an incredible experience. Would definitely recommend this tour as the value was exceptional. The food was delicious too!
