Scroll through our albums to see what we’re about and what you can expect from our boat tours! For us ‘sustainable tourism‘ means, that we donate our time to care for wildlife and for environmental education. The animals that we encounter on our tours are totally wild, don’t get fed and can choose to interact with us on their free will.
