Your ship ties up in Manga. Ten minutes later you are on your own boat, and the queue for the coach at the terminal gate is somebody else’s morning.
Everything about this day is built around your all-aboard time. Send us your ship name when you book; we plan the route around the hours you actually have and dock you back at the pier with a two-hour cushion. In between, the boat is yours. You set the pace, you pick how long you linger at the swim stop, and you share it with nobody outside your group.

This is the day we recommend for families travelling together, multi-generation groups and friends who want the port stop to feel like a private outing rather than a numbered seat. If your group is larger than 12, or you want a specific boat, message us on WhatsApp before booking and we will arrange it.
