"Took my 5 year old granddaughter on the mermaid adventure. She had so much fun! Our guide was very interactive and engaging with the kids. Mermaid Nina was friendly and engaging too. The story teaches about ocean animals and conservation."

"Highly recommend! My 6 and 2 year old LOVED it. It was a small group (maybe around 10 kids or so) so everyone really gets to experience Nina the mermaid!! The kiddos get small souvenirs and it's long enough to be entertaining but not so long that kids get bored. We saw beautiful HHI and even dolphins. 100% worth the money!"
