Excellent. Our boat crew were very knowledgeable, helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we saw everything during the trip. It really felt as though they cared about not only about the experience but also about the animals themselves and their welfare. The hightlight was definitely the dolphin swimming, which was incredible. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend.

Zuerst haben wir 3 Pottwale plus ein Babywal gesehen, hatten also Glück (ca. 60% prozentige Chance). Eine super Aufnahme könnten wir machen. Anschließend sind wir in mitten von Delfinen geschwommen, das war großartig und ein einzigartiges Erlebnis. Wir konnten einen Schwarm von ca. 20 Delfinen sehen. Einige der Delfinen machten ihrem Namen alle Ehre und sprangen (Spin) aus dem Wasser. Zum Schluss schwammen die Delfinen dann noch mit unserem Boot mit (super Fotos) und dann ins offene Meer. Wir hatten anschließend noch Zeit zu schnorcheln. Ein toller und gelungener Tag, den wir nie vergessen werden! Die Crew war nett, zuvorkommend und hatte interessante Infos für uns. Jederzeit wieder :)

The activity was brilliant. We were unlucky with the weather on the original day that we booked but the lovely representative helped us secure spaces on the following day and woke up at 5am to update us on the weather. The guides on the day were amazing. I am 6 months pregnant and they went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable throughout the trip amd enjoying myself. We saw whales and my husband swam with dolphins. I could not recommend this trip more highly, it is a brilliant day out and a great company.
