I was very excited for my trip to Bat Island and Thrillophilia didn't disappoint me in the least. It was my first time in Goa. I was scantily informed about the place but the staff was quite helpful. The food served was nice but it could've been better. I'm not a swimmer. Snorkeling had me excited yet I was a bit scared. But the instructor was nice and friendly which made me ease up and experience the lovely lively world under water. The entire trip was a wonderful experience. I'd totally go there again!

Overall the trip was good. We thoroughly enjoyed the snorkelling part. But the journey to the bat island hasn’t come to our expectation. We started late due to some issues with the boat we was assigned first. Then they changed the boat and after that only, we could start the trip. Hence the time we could spend on the bat island was reduced. Still, the experience was great. Thanks.

I wasn't aware of Bat Island in Goa, had always been on the northern side. Snorkelled here for a couple of hours and spotted some exotic fish, clone fish, turtles and sea cucumbers. Lunch and beer was also included in his package so it was a party for me.

We were a family of four, with two kids, and had such a pleasant afternoon exploring Bat island with the guidance of Tanay, the guide and his crew. The snorkelling experience was simply out of this world. I wished there were some snacks provided on the trip as well.
