Very prompt pick up and drop off from the hotel. We saw a few dolphins at one point next to the boat. Snorkeling was very good. We saw lots of interesting fish. Actually, the whole experience was snorkeling and lunch. It took the whole day but the rest was driving. The lunch which was served in my opinion was tasty and enough portions. We had options: chicken, fish or vegetables. To be honest extras seafood offered was not worthed the money. I recommend people to wear beach rubber sandals as we had to walk a lot to the beach and the corrals were very sharp. Few people cut their legs. Also the boats left us in the water and we had to walk thru the water to the place where lunch was served.that was everything. Overall the tour was OK but do not expect too much.

It took a long time to get to the island, both by van then by boat. We spent five hours getting there. We did not see any dolphins on the way, coming or going. The snorkelling was fantastic, but we only got about 45 minutes of it before we had to leave for lunch. The lunch was decent. The guides were happy to accommodate my request for a tour of a local cave where slaves were held on there way to the slave market in Zanzibar. That tour was excellent too. Overall it was a good day, but we wasted a lot of time at the dock transferring from the van to the boat, time which would have been better used for more snorkelling, and also at the restaurant after we had finished eating, which would have been better used to get us home in a more timely manner. As it was we got home at 8 pm.

Always have extra cash in hand, for water and carry along your food… Every activity was good but I got pissed and angry when I was asked to pay for water after eating, my cellphone died, I couldn’t use mpesa.

I had an amazing time on the dolphin tour and snorkeling trip to Wasini! Seeing dolphins up close was unforgettable, and the crystal-clear waters made snorkeling an absolute joy. The vibrant coral reefs and colorful fish were breathtaking. The crew was professional, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great time. We also enjoyed a delicious Swahili lunch on Wasini Island, which was the perfect end to the day. This tour is a must-do if you're in Diani – truly an unforgettable adventure!

Lovely people who tried their very best for us. Could not fault their friendliness and helpfulness. However there were only 2 dolphins seen on the whole trip, none in the swimming area so should not be called a swim with the dolphins tour. The coral that we snorkelled at was dead or dying so not very interesting. Hard to control nature of course, but they need to set better expectations. Underpromise and over deliver rather than over promising and under delivering.

Dolphins watching and the boatride were nice. Bottled water was advertised as included. Instead, before arriving we were brought to a tourist trap and had to buy our own expensive water. During lunch the restaurant “had ran out of water” so we had no choice but to buy our own juices which offcourse costs extra. Staff during lunch at Wasini was very unfriendly and inhospitable. The man who ferried us from the boat to the restaurant and back was aggressively begging and hassling every individual for “tips”.

No dolphins. To pick up some people took 1h. So to pick up everyone it took around 4h, and to come back it took around 4h and I was the first and last one. I was sitting all the time in the hot car without air conditioner. Because of all this crowd we picked up very far from the main road we arrived very late. And the captain of the boat said it's too late we will notgo to see the dolphins. So what happened - I paid 100$ to see dolphins, and they did everything not to let me see them. But what they did - they asked for tips, what kind of tips if nothing was done. I arrived home very tired, with bad mood, lost money and time of my vaccation. If you wanna see dolphings don't take a trip, rent a transport by your own in early morning (6am) and rent a seat in a boat. Don't make my mistake don't trust other people. It will be much cheaper and more comfortable. 8h in a car without airconditioner is not the best things in this world.

This tour was planned with good intentions but the actual follow through was lacking. There were multiple activities listed in the description that we did not have time for and we still managed to get done an hour later than scheduled. There was little explanation of what was happening until we had been on the boat for over an hour and there were not enough life jackets for everyone on board. The snorkeling was sporadic and came with little warning and no instruction/refresher. The “strong swimmers” were encouraged not to use a life jacket and the guides were not clearly marked so it was easy to get lost among the many other groups snorkeling in the same spot. We did see dolphins but it was overshadowed by the disorganization of the timing and itinerary of the whole day. Overall the trip felt haphazard, not very safe, and not worth the money.

Seeing dolphins was amazing! Snorkeling experience also very nice but perhaps I was expecting a bit more/something more breathtaking. But overall very good…food in the restaurant (lunch) nothing exceptional but it is ok…!!
