Had the best experience my little family and I and we were blessed to have a dolphin jump out of water and flip in the air right next to our boat. Well done captain Dedi 🫶🏽”

“Chouette activité. Même si c’est plus de la chasse aux dauphins que de l’observation ou de la nage. Bateau typique sympa. Pour le reste, Aling Aling est très belle et moins peuplée que d’autres. Pour le café, j’ai visité d’autres productions qui expliquaient un peu plus en détails sa fabrication. Par contre, nous avons eu une dégustation généreuse de thé et de café. L’endroit est magnifique. Toutes les personnes que nous avons croisées sont très gentilles et serviables. Notre chauffeur Agus sympa et à l’écoute.”

The other one was good, but I looked forward to some shopping, it was also closed i cause of the holiday. The guide instead of that, took us to see some coffeemaking and a view of riceplantage.. but it was not what we had asked for in the beginning.. so ... disappointing....”
