We were very happy to spot the dolphins :) my daughter was extremely excited to see the dolphins and their calves ! I was only slightly disappointed we didn’t get to go to open sea :) Will definitely be coming back :)

It was an extremely nice experience! Biologist Vanessa is super nice and told us a lot of interesting facts about dolphins! Even my son, who normally gets bored quickly, had a great time and wasn’t bored at all! So I fully recommend this experience!

I LOVED this activity! It did not disappoint. I read a lot of reviews before booking this tour and was very impressed that it said 95% of the time, dolphins and other wildlife were sighted. Our boat driver was Francesco, and he handled the boat carefully and had some fun with us while driving. Our marine biologist guide was Vanessa and she was full of great information. We were very lucky and got to see a few different pods of dolphins, with babies and mamas. We heard our boat communicating with others as to where the wildlife was and that made it much easier for our boat to find the dolphins in the wild. I HIGHLY recommend this tour to everyone if you are into marine life, and seeing animals in their natural habitat.

The excursion was great! The highlight of our vacation. The dolphins were very close to our boat. The team was super friendly. We first drove along the coast and then to the dolphins. There we spent about 30 minutes with the dolphins, they must not be disturbed for too long while hunting. The boat is very fast and the ride alone was a lot of fun! We absolutely loved it. In any case, don't forget to apply sunscreen beforehand. Jacket makes sense if you get cold easily, on the open sea it got a bit chilly.

Amazing adventure, the crew was so lovely, funny and professional. There were so many dolphins swimming around us and even a whale in the distance. We've had the best staff ever, big thanks to them for this experience. Everything was perfect and totally worth it. Dziękujemy!

My Boyfriend Anil and I (Linnea) were yesterday at the dolphine tour. It was the BEST experience ever. For me it was a dream come true. The tour was great planned and the team is super nice. They knew all about the dolphines and the underwater life. Vanessa gave us a great introduction and knew all about it. All in all was it a perfect day and I would love to do it sometime again. 10/10 recommendation!!

I had a fantastic trip. Sailing on the speedboat was an adventure in itself. Pretty soon we saw a group of mama dolphins with their young. The guide gave the animals space and did not want to stress them. In the meantime, he kept giving some information, asking if everything was in order and offering water for those who were thirsty. I recommend it to everyone, but it is wise not to eat too much or too little beforehand, some pieces of sailing go up and down quite quickly.

The welcome is very friendly with some explanations given by oceanographers on the most common species of dolphins in the region. The boats are recent and fast. The small tour towards the monuments of the city at the edge of the river (after having seen the dolphins for an hour!) gives a different view of this district. The team is cheerful and available to people. To do without hesitation!
