Klasse Trip

Super schöner Ausflug an das Great Barrier Reef. Crew sehr gut, Boot in einem guten Zustand. Sehr angenehme Gruppengrösse. Essen war gut und reichlich. Die Tauchgänge waren recht nett, allerdings muss man nicht unbedingt bis zu 150$ für 3 Tauchgänge ausgeben, wenn die Korallen beim Schnorcheln am schönsten Riff der Welt nur einige Zentimeter unter einem zum Anfassen nah sind. Den Einstiegs-Tauchgang kann man sich dennoch überlegen, als eine erste Erfahrung. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass man bisweilen das Gefühl hatte, dass Jan, unser Bootsführer die Leute dazu verleiten will, unbedingt alle Tauchgänge zu machen, und sich mit einem Nein nicht sofort zufrieden gibt.
