What a day it was! The whole family loved the experience: pick-up from the hotel on time, the whole crew is super friendly and knowledgeable. We were not sure if we would see wild dolphins during the trip but we really didn’t had to worry. We saw them several times during our trip thanks to our dolphins whisperer. We took so many amazing videos with dolphin jumping, crossing each other. We had food and drinks the whole day along. We highly recommend this trip!!!

This your was amazing and I recommend it to anyone! the views are great, snorkeling was great and the food was great too. The guides were amazing, explained many things and made sure we had everything we needed!

Everything was great except for the pick-up, since the pick-up point was inaccurate
