It was an amazing experience, the speed boats were actually very fast although the water was choppy in the beginning our tour guide took us to a comma area where we were able to have more fun with the boats

The guide could not have did anything about the rain during our ride but he went so far ahead of us that we couldn't see him for over 10 minutes or reach him on the radio.
