Wow...fantastic tour! - I just went on this tour and cannot rave about it enough. The crew were fabulous. Friendly, professional and very informative. We swam with the dolphins multiple times and once with turtles. I cannot describe how wonderful the experiences were. This is hopefully not a one-time experience. I want to go back and do it again. I would highly recommend Indigo Ocean and their Swim Dolphins tour. You don't want to miss out.

Great experience. - Great weather, great crew, great experience. Some of us didn't get to see the dolphins under water, but such things aren't guaranteed, so not exactly a criticism. We were able to swim with the turtles, however. Very cool. The boat forgot to bring dessert (okay, that is a criticism), but not a big deal. Everyone on the boat was kind, Uncle John was a great photographer, JB was a great "dive master," and the whole experience was definitely worth it.

Beautiful tour! 10/10 - Amazing experience! Breathtaking views! The crew are very kind, welcoming and knowledgable. They are also very respectful and ethical towards sea creatures. We saw spinner dolphins which are protected so we didn't get to swim with dolphins this time. The crew tried their best to find another pod, we were just unlucky but we got to swim with turtles instead! I would do the tour again! They offer snacks food and drinks. Everything was amazing!

Lack of dolphins - The driver and photographer were great. The boat was ok, kind of small and old. We only had one drop for dolphins that swam off as soon as we entered the water. Then we went to a reef with turtles and never even looked for more dolphins. The food was cold and not very tasty. The driver also threatened to leave people who didn’t tip at a different location.

Worst experience, no dolphins, very rude tour operators - Save your money!!! - Do not use this company. The crew had no clue what they were doing. Rushed us into the ocean multiple times only to scare away the dolphins and rush us back in. They rushed us in so quickly that one woman jumped on top of me, giving me a bloody nose and concussion. They handed me ice and that was it. They were extremely rude. One person on the boat was throwing up and instead of offering help, one crew member said "well, that's the ocean." There are plenty of great crews that will make this experience memorable. Don't make the mistake of choosing this one. They did not find us dolphins. Spent the majority of the time on the boat bobbing up and down. Relied on another tour company to find the dolphins. Then showed up and scared the dolphins away. On top of it, they provided very unsafe conditions in the process. And were VERY rude. Stay away.
