A bit of difficulty finding our boat at the harbour but fantastic help getting on board (I walk with a stick). Great boat trip out to Rose Island (though be prepared to be sitting in full sun for an hour). Very well organised. At Rose Island we were given a group number and clear guidance. When in the sea with the pigs it all happens very quickly! You need to keep your arms out of the water otherwise the pigs will think you have food. Unfortunately I lost my balance in the frenzy of the pigs coming into the sea, my arm went down to water level and a very large pig thought I was a snack - and bit me. No blood drawn but a mighty bruise! So it's VERY important to stand steady and keep your arms out of the water when the big pigs are around - they are very focused on their snacks! It was a fun time and Rose Island is simply beautiful. Lovely cool restaurant looking over the beach. Incredible turquoise sea. Unspoilt beaches. Kind staff. Very well organised. The most beautiful location!

The people running the tour went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time. The boat ride to the excursion was on a catamaran which was great for me because I tend to ge seasick on regular boats but not catamarans. The staff on the island explained everything to make sure the people were safe and also that the pigs were treated properly. And the pigs were so adorable! The tour was amazing from start to finish.

Absolutely amazing...great vibe and energy, while keeping it safe. Our Captain even gave us a special treat by stopping near the sea turtle sanctuary for us to see a few!
