Hi Jason, Thank you for your 5 star review! Matador Whitsundays
Awesome experience, I will remember my whole life!!
Absolutely loved it. The crew and the whole tour was nice and I would defined recommend it :).
Very bad weather, which was not at all conducive to going out to sea, especially for two days and one night. The program was not respected, with no explanation of where we were going. The skipper spoke very badly and showed no respect for customers or colleagues. Very old boat
Awesome people, really amazing food (also gluten-free and vegetarian options are available), the crew is funny and doing an amazing job!! Thank you for this unforgettable snorkeling experience :-) ♡
