Dolphins almost guaranteed, with sweet (not intrusive) staff. - The boat was near our hotel without us knowing. But neatly picked up by car. On arrival we thought we had to wait a long time because there were few people on the boat. We didn't want for anything, Sprite and Coke were continuously poured, even on the deck. The staff was very friendly and absolutely non-intrusive. Many of our group could not swim, but were helped by all crew members. The food was fine, just the tasty recipe as on all boats (lots of choice of salads, chicken (nuggets), spaghetti and rice. You can get as much as you want. Dolphin spotting didn't happen by itself, there were many boats, but they did everything possible so that really everyone could see the dolphins. Nothing more than praise, for this price a truly unforgettable day. We didn't see much of the photographer, especially in the water. For us very nice because we already had 7 trips on it.

I recommend it! - Let's book the tour without knowing if we'd swim with dolphins and yes, they let us shoot twice. The first time my partner and I saw a dolphin super close and the second time my partner could swim with 4 dolphins super close. So if we recommend this company since at least they try to swim with them. Then he snorkeled twice and very cool. There was also the sofa mat which was brief but intense. The only bad thing is the waits which at first was about 30 minutes on the boat.

Unbelievable! - The organizer does it promise. Hectic incredible experience to see dolphins and be able to be so close to them. All staff on the boat ensured and were helpful throughout the excursion. They made sure and did their best to make this possible. Thank you for this experience and memories.

Great experience - The snorkeling and buoy were great! The instructor was great. Snorkeling equipment is available. The meal was good, the drinks are cool and accessible. However we were not looking for dolphins too bad. Another negative point: the driver arrived at the hotel late and forced us to leave him $1 per person in tips, which was not justified.

The usual dolphin boat... - The usual dolphin boat tour. Arranged well. Enough food (rice, pasta, potatoes, kofte, chicken nuggets, salad). Went to dolphin house and swam with the dolphins. Nice and friendly crew. Music way too loud. Snorkling spots were beautiful. Kids were well taken care of by one of the crew and a lifebuoy so they could see fish and corals too. Wish they offered one of the two snorklings spots to go snorkle "freely" though. Good experience.

Great day out! The crew... - Great day out! The crew is perfect, and we had good fun and laugh on the boat. We saw dolphins, and we did one swim with them cause it was absolutely crowded with boats. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the other boats in the Dolphins House, which were very aggressive and dangerous. They almost hit each other couple of times, which is very high risk for the tourists on the boats. I have been few times on exactly the same trip to the Dolphins House, and it was never been that packed and dangerous. The tour guides need to establish some agreement to visit the place in different hours, so they don't end up all together in the same time there...

Viator is a total scam company with no accountability and responsibility. - We made a reservation by viator and adjusted our travel plan to be able to join this tour. However viator's terrible information management made it a nightmare for us eventually and they refuse to take any responsibility. The operator told us the tour was cancelled just one hour before it, while we got up early and check out and waiting in the lobby like fools. No one take the responsibility even through i tried to contect both the operator and viator seperately. I will never use this application and post all my experience in sns .
