Incredible experience of swimming with dolphins in their natural habitat! Emotional, exhausting and exhilarating! - An amazing day out from start to finish. Picked up by the lovely Dhiren to take us to the south (considerately stopping for coffee enroute) for one of the best days ever! The boat took us out to where the dolphins would be & the crew briefed us on when to jump in and what to do. Owen and Nino were the best guides and out of 3 jumps swam with dolphins all around twice. Hard work to swim and keep up but worth it. Then headed to benitiere island for bbq lunch. Great food and relaxing island. All in all an amazing day thank you

Mauritius dolphins swim with dolphins - Had an amazing experience saw and swam with the dolphins. You had to be quick jumping in the sea but it was well worth it. The skipper was brilliant. The taxi picked us up promptly on other side of the island about an hour away. We then got into the boat about 8 of us so it was perfect. Snorkelled around the crystal rock and then had a fab lunch and creole dancing and singing and lots of rum beer and non alcoholic drinks. I totally recommend this company from start to finish. Book up you will not regret it.

Full Day Dolphin Watching Cruise - I went on a dolphin watching cruise with EcoHolidays Mauritius and had an amazing time. I booked the trip through the trip advisor app three days before. Our boat driver was incredible and positioned the boat in the perfect place for us to get in the water as the dolphins swim past. After spending a few hours with the dolphins we then set off to see crystal rock to take some photographs. We spent lunchtime and early afternoon sitting on the beach of a small island and had a bbq which was also fantastic. I would highly recommend booking your dolphin experience with EcoHolidays Mauritius, it was a great experience.

Fantastic day dolphin watching - What a fantastic company we went out on this trip swimming with the dolphins and were lucky to spot humpback whales as well . Great trip started with Ravi our driver picking us up at hotel . He makes the start of the trip such a friendly guy . The 2 boys on the boat made the trip, very good at there job and friendly . Great barbecue on Benitiers island prepared by the two boys also . Everything was well organised and made our holiday . A must on any Mauritius holiday . John was one on the boat and can’t remember the other but made the boat trip a great success

Once in a lifetime experience - This excursion was well organised from our driver Raj who picked us up from our hotel and Pascal who managed to get us on the boat and the skipper Fabrice who took us to view and swim with the dolphins. He was well experience and he briefed us on how to swim with the dolphins and giving us some information about the dolphins. We then moved to snorkel in ‘The Aquarium’ where the colour of the sea was crystal clear and the corals and fishes was the main attraction there. After that we then went on to see the crystal rock and ended with a BBQ lunch at Benitier’s Island together with our boat mates and 3 other skipper which I cannot recall their names. Overall this is the best tours I have been with compare to all the other excursion in Mauritius😊😊

Highlight of our trip - Takes up all your day to give you memories of a lifetime. We had a very nice experience of watching so many dolphins together which was not in a zoo and also were given snorkeling time of 30 minutes at a proper place in the sea to have a look at different fishes. Vegetarian food was available and was more than satisfactory (I would advice you to inform in advance).

Worth a visit - It was a beautiful experience. Never knew that they were such a thing. We took the tour and the chance for swimming alongside the dolphins was worth the experience
