Best Day in Coastal Kenya - This was without a doubt the highlight of our trip! We saw pods of dolphins dancing in the waves and snorkeled in clear waters full of tropical fish. Lunch was freshly prepared, flavorful and served with such hospitality. The wasini village walk was simple but authentic, giving us insight into coastal life. Visiting the shimoni slave caves was emotional but very important, making this tour both fun and educational. Highly recommended!

Magical Day With Dolphins & Wasini Experience - Our dolphin and snorkeling tour was an absolutely unforgettable experience. Watching dolphins play freely in their natural environment was magical, and snorkeling above colorful corals and tropical fish felt like swimming in a living aquarium. After the adventure at the sea, were treated to a fresh and delicious seafood lunch that really hit the spot. The wasini village walk was such a special addition, giving us a glimpse into local culture and life on the island. The entire team was proffesional, friendly and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the day. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Lovely day - Our day tour was truly u! From the very beginning, the crew made us feel welcomed and safe as we set out on a traditional dhow. Watching dolphins play freely in their natural habitat was magical, and the chance to snorkeling to over colorful coral reef filled with tropical fish was absolutely breathtaking. We were so lucky enough to spot whales, which made the experience even more extraordinary! After the adventurers at sea, we enjoyed a delicious swahili-style that was fresh, flavorfuly, and full of local taste. The afternoon village walk in wasini was the perfect cultural touch--meeting the locals, learning about their way of life, and exploring the charm of the island made the day even more meaningful. This tour combines nature, adventure, culture, and hospitality all in one. Highly recommended to anyone visiting the Kenyan coast-it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Unforgettable dolphin experience - Our dolphin safari was absolutely magical from Star to finish. Seeing dolphins play freely in their natural habitat was a once-in-a-lifetime experience! The crew was friendly, professional and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. The boat ride was smooth, the snorkeling was breathtaking with colourful fish and corals, and the atmosphere was filled with excitement and joy. What stood out most was respectful the team was toward the dolphins and marine life -we got close enough to admire them, but without disturbing their natural behaviour. This made the whole experience feel even more authentic than special. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the coast - whether you love the ocean, want an adventure or are simply looking for a memorable day. Truly must do activity that left us with smiles, laughter and memories to cherish forever

Beautiful Oceanic Experience - Our trip with Shaksy was amazing! as a local to the area he was very knowledgeable about the wildlife in the area and answered all of our questions. he took us to see dolphins and joined us on the snorkeling pointing out fish and other creatures we wouldn't have seen on our own. After snorkeling we had lunch and he took us on a small tour of his village. overall it was a great time I highly recommend this trip to anyone in the area!
