Frequently Asked Questions about Senior Tours

Q. Is there an age limit for snorkeling?
No special qualifications or age restrictions are required to begin snorkeling.
In addition to checking for safety before entering the water, do preparatory exercises to relax your neck, ankles, and hip joints, which are easily fatigued during snorkeling.
Q. Is there an age limit for diving?
Diving is an activity that can be enjoyed by all ages and genders, but requires proper training and instruction to ensure safety. Swimming ability and physical flexibility may also be required, so advance preparation is important.
Furthermore, some tours may have age restrictions, so it is important to check the conditions of participation before making a reservation.
Q. Can I dive if I can't swim?
Diving is one of the marine sports that can be enjoyed by those who cannot swim. It differs from ordinary swimming because it involves breathing and propulsion underwater using specialized equipment such as oxygen tanks and masks.
Swimming skills are not really required as the swimmers can breathe through their mouths and do not need to hold their breath, and they are propelled by the use of their leg fins.

I was worried about whether we would be able to make the climb since there were three of us, but the instructor gave us slow instructions and all three of us were able to make the climb. The weather recovered and we were able to see a wonderful view. It was a pity that we could not climb up to the top of the stone because of the strong wind! I can understand why people want to do it again and again. We would like to come back again to see a different view. Thanks again.

We were very satisfied with the tour. We joined the tour by disembarking from the cruise ship and were picked up and dropped off at the cruise terminal. The tour guide was very helpful in teaching us how to drive the trike for the first time. The guide was very kind to let the next vehicle go ahead of us because we were going 30 kilometers per hour on public roads, which made driving stress-free. It was a memorable experience. It was a very worthwhile tour!
