Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

WOW WOW WOW - What an amazing experience, I bought a voucher for my husband as a present as he wanted to do the Hanois trip - It did not disappoint. Fantastic commentary and really informative. Can't wait to do another one.

We did the Sark caves experience. It was really good fun, lots of information about the island was given. Will definitely do more trips next year. Great to do with visitors or if you’re here on holiday. Highly recommended!

We were originally booked to go on the Hanois tour, but it was unfortunately cancelled due to the wind so we rebooked on to the Herm Explorer Wildlife Voyage for the following week instead. First off they were really helpful with getting us rebooked and sorting out the difference in money as the Herm trip is a bit cheaper than the one we had already paid for.
Then on the day itself, the whole experience was absolutely brilliant. They were so helpful with getting us all kitted out, and the tour was great fun, even if I did get absolutely soaked. We loved the fast parts and it was also great to see Herm from a different angle and hear new facts about the area and wildlife, and we also saw some seals - my first time seeing seals in the wild!
We had a fab time and are planning on doing all of the tours on offer when they start up again for the season.

Glad you had a good time. We have a very efficient booking system and waste no time in price adjustments or refunds. The islands look so different from the sea. We look forward to welcoming you aboard again next year

It was good seeing the cliffs from a different perspective and get up close to the Hanois lighthouse was a great thing to do. Nice to see the seals too. Really good to get out on the last day of the season and that finally, the weather was kind to us!

Thank you. It was a bad year for weather and this affected the Hanois more than most of our trips. Glad you got out on this fascinating trip.

Great communication with the company before booking as to their location and the potential ship dock position. Great trip with a humorous commentary and we got to see some indigenous dolphins with their babies. Incredible how our boat could go in and out of the caves.

Amazing to be so close to the Hanois Lighthouse, we also managed to spot some seals, which were lovely to see. The information we were told about the lighthouse was very interesting and it was also fascinating to see the south coast of the island by sea, which I don't think we've ever seen from that position. Well worth the trip.

Glad you enjoyed it. We see it out there but seldom get the chance to get close up. Seeing our coast from the sea gives a whole different perspective

Thank you. Seeing even familiar places from the sea gives things a whole different perspective and it's all brought to life by Matt's commentaries

Been on trips with Island RIB Voyages in the past and really enjoyed them and this was no exception. Dan, as usual, expertly manovered the boat into tight caves as well as showing his fun side with some speed and tight turns. The commentary was interesting and informative as well as fun. We were even lucky enough to spot some dolphins.

Thank you. We hope everyone has fun on our experiences. Dan's skill is key but Matt's commentary makes it fun and interesting. Seeing dolphins was a plus. Hope to see you again soon

I am visiting Guernsey next Monday to Friday and would like to know the price of the RIB voyages and where they go and start from and at what times.

I would go on their website but do not book through it I had a bit of a problem sorted out when I went to their booth half way along the main street on the sea front .They will tell you were to go and to get there 15 mins before the booking time to get kitted out.Well worth the money about £40 I think
