点评:This is a small group tour, which makes a huge difference in manta ray watching and swimming with sharks. Nui was our tour guide--he's extremely patient and clearly a friend of the sharks and rays! Manta ray sighting is never a guarantee, so when we didn't see any in the first stop, I thought that was it. But Nui took us to a second spot to surprise us. All tours go to the same place to swim with sharks. Nui took us in when others were leaving so we mostly had the place to ourselves. I saw that in two other larger boats, there were 20+ people clustered in the water, staring up sands with very poor visibility. While Nui anchored in a spot that's shallow but not so sandy, and he attracts those sharks and rays! We had over 10 sharks and 2 rays circling our boat for nearly 10min. We also saved quite a bit by calling Arieta to book directly.
