"First of all: I highly recommend this tour! We saw dolphins. It was amazing! The guide and skipper were also great. The only thing that bothered me was the noise on the speedboat, which sounded like we were on a roller coaster. The tour operator could perhaps do something about this by slowing down a little when going over the waves. With different passengers, it might have been fine without all the screaming. If you don't want to be shaken around too much, it's best to sit at the back. CONCLUSION: Overall, highly recommended "

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.

We had an incredible dolphin-watching tour in Lisbon! Inês and Francisco were amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They took us to the perfect spots, and seeing dolphins up close was magical. The boat was comfortable, and their enthusiasm made the trip even better. It was a day we’ll never forget. Huge thanks to Inês and Francisco for making it such a special experience! Highly recommend this tour!

Little kids can get sea-sick, other than that, it was a great tour.

It was a real disappointment because this tour should have been cancelled due to bad weather. There were no other boats operating on the same day because of rough seas. Yet we were taken out only to turn back abandoning the entire experience.
