Great experience! Saw seals, dolphins, puffins, and several minke whales! Guide was patient, didn’t hurry past viewing opportunities. Highly recommend.

Went there rather spontaneously with my friends a few days ago. From start to finish very professional. We were provided with water-resistant pants and a thick jacket. Since it was really warm that day and given that we were already sweating, we took the jacket reluctantly at first. However, in the end I was glad we listened and wore them because out on the sea it got cold fast - what I‘m trying to say is: Listen to the staff, they‘ve got experience. The tour itself was also great! It started with short safety instructions and off we went. The nature is beautiful here and the guide (I think Nathan was his name) was knowledgeable. He handed us a lot of information about the wildlife and the area itself. Sadly, we didn’t get to see any dolphins or other sea-mammals on our tour. Nobodys fault, you can’t control nature. The owner of the shop was really sweet though and showed us pictures of the dolphins she saw on her tour sooner that day. Definitely worth it if you’re in the area.

Nathan was a phenomenal tour guide finding seals, sheep, puffins and other birds, dolphins, and explaining the gorgeous geological features!!! He explained every island we boated around, paused for pictures, and made it a memorable occasion for our family of three.

We had an incredible time on our tour this morning! Everyone we encountered was really friendly, enthusiastic, and helpful. On our tour we got up close with blasket island and some other scenic areas along the way. We saw dolphins, whales, puffins, and seals. Our guide was very knowledgeable and even let us linger a bit longer when we happened upon a whale and dolphin feeding frenzy. Can’t recommend this experience enough!

Everthing was on time. Our safety was their primary concern, our experience was secondary … EXACTLY as it should be. The commentary was informative and not intrusive on our enjoyment. They were ecofriendly… we got to see everything up close, but they did not crowd the wildlife. If i return to Dingle, i’d take the trip a second time. Cheers!

We went on the Blasket Island tour, it was fantastic. The team are well organised and put us at ease on land. Dave was our guide and he safely navigated the waters and gave us interesting info on everything we saw - geology, sea birds, wild life. He was able to answer all questions. We were lucky enough to see grey seals, puffins and dolphins. It was a fantastic trip. The team are experienced. You are kitted out with waterproof jacket, trousers, hat/gloves and a life vest. It was an exhilarating tour and I would reccomend anyone considering it, to go for it!

Awesome!!! We happened to walk by the organizer in Dingle. A group had just returned and was so enthusiastic that we spontaneously decided we wanted to experience it too. And we were not disappointed... it was certainly one of the highlights for me/us in Ireland. Being able to admire this incredible nature not only from the road but from the water is simply sensational! Suddenly a completely different perspective. Along with the birds, seals, and the incredible dolphins... it was truly worth it!!
