Tour Reviews
On Prangli Reisid’s website it says “Helen is a ray of sunshine …” She really is! Adding sunshine to our already sunny day on Prangly island! We enjoyed a day off the beaten (touristy) track and had a great time with her, full of fun and information. Contact with the office was also prompt and very friendly.
Behind our back is an active day full of laughter and exciting stories from Prangli Island. Many thanks to our guide Andreas from Prangli Travel.
Beautiful island and village. We were very well taken care by the local host. Thank you!
