  Poor organization for the dolphin outing. Force you to swim with a life jacket. So it's impossible to track dolphins. A loft for the exit. The swim with dolphin lasted 30 min for an outing of 7h... No hygiene for the meal. And poorly organized. We are served food in tup where cooked meat is next to raw meat. We had a night out from 8:00 to 14. With meals on the island at the benign. Result he asks us to eat at 10:30 in the morning... team to flee.

  At the time of booking, it was mentioned that the group was a maximum of 8 people (which clearly tipped the balance in the choice of provider); on arrival, this was not respected and the group was 11. It was mentioned that we could listen to whales and sperm whales using a hydrophone, which is not true, the boat was not equipped. The crew were friendly and very respectful of dolphins and sperm whales, which is not the case with many other vessels present on site... Indeed, both at the site of observation of sperm whales and dolphins, dozens of other boats were present and rushed on cetaceans at the slightest observation... In addition, whether or not you are an experienced swimmer, the wearing of a flotation aid vest is mandatory both on the boat and during launches (except at the snorkeling site at the end). Sincerely; a contract not respected, mass tourism at its purest. The only comfort, the animals were respected. I do not recommend and will not do so again.

  We booked via Kuoni to go watch dolphins and whales. Up at 4.00am, to be picked up at 4.50am, one and a half hour journey across to flic and Flac, collecting others on the way. After an hour waiting, 13 got on the boat, it was windy. Found a few dolphins with ten other boats following them, so easy to find. Couldn’t swim with them as Kuoni frown about that, but totally understandable. Then a mile out to sea for two nightmarish hours to look for whales, which we never saw. 4 metre swell, getting absolutely wet through, people being sick over the side, what a total nightmare and seemed dangerous to me. We asked to go back to the beach, what a relief when we got there. My advice would be to go when it is calm, our trip should have been cancelled. Not sure who the boat operators were. Then a one and half hour trip back. £150 per person day not to remember.

  Great tour with great guides. We have seen both sperm whales and dolphins. We went snorkeling with the dolphins. An unforgettable experience. The subsequent snorkeling was also very nice. An absolute must if you want to see dolphins and whales!!

  What a fantastic boat trip! We did an exclusive whale and dolphin tour. Our guide Julian and driver (I’m so sorry I can’t remember your name!) were outstanding. Very knowledgeable, with full respect for the animals and honestly an incredible knack for spotting wildlife. We saw a group of pilot whales, sperm whales, spinner dolphins and turtles. We found the spot where the dolphins were quite overwhelming so asked if we could leave and carry on with our boat trip which they were more than happy to oblige with and came up with a plan to go to over to Crystal Rock which was stunning. I mentioned that i was desperate to see turtles and having warned me that the place we were in really wasn’t the best for seeing them, they not only managed to find one but several, which was a dream come true. Also I t’s very clear from what we saw of other boats that Dolswim go above and beyond to avoid stressing out the animals so 10/10 to them!

  

• Wonderful experience with a lot of respect and love for the animals

  The whale watching was really a beautiful experience with which my partner and I fulfilled a lifetime dream. Our skippers were very concerned with animal welfare and took a lot of consideration, approached at a reasonable and respectful distance and then also turned off the engine of the boat while observing. We could see a Spotted Forest lady and a mom with her baby. Also the encounter with the dolphins was totally great and considerate. Unfortunately, the day before was heavy swell, so the dolphins were hard to see underwater, but they put on a real show and even jumped out of the water and turned pirouettes until the other boats arrived. After that, they swam even further, but not so playful anymore. A heartfelt thank you to our skippers, who made sure that we can take home an unforgettable and respectful experience with these wonderful animals. I will never forget today. In addition to the fun, we also learned a lot about the animals (: If you want to book your observation, then BE SURE to contact this provider. It was shocking to see other boats jumping their tourists into the water to the baby whale and the mom (which is illegal, by the way!!! And for good reason) and formally encircled the two until they were submerged. The babies can only stay underwater for ten minutes, which means they have to keep coming back. Tourists in the water stress the young animal eerily and when it is then separated from the mother. The thought alone is terrible. Would you want your baby to be touched by every stranger who sees and finds him cute?

  Great morning thank you! We managed to see both dolphins and whales on the trip. I recommend being a stronger swimmer than myself to try keep up with dolphins but I got a nice view from the front of the boat. It seemed difficult to find a trip that I knew wouldn’t harass the creatures so it was really nice to have guides that explained and respected the laws and the animals. Little private speedboats encouraging people to swim with whale mothers and calves causing them distress ruins the experience for everyone

• Fantastic company and experience

  What a fantastic experience, our captain Lino and his mate Jason were excellent, we know we were lucky, we saw and swam with Spinner Dolphins almost immediately, then went to find the Whales, the crew were in contact with other boats and when they heard of a sighting, we were off, on the way we spotted one on our own so were the first boat to arrive to see these special creatures. In total we saw 6 sperm whales and the crew were very respectful of them, unlike some of the other boats. Would absolutely recommend Dolswim. Thank you for a bucket list item ticked off.

  Great tour! Lino and Yoni were extremely patient and never rushed us. They gave us multiple opportunities to swim with the dolphins. We also got to see a huge sperm whale, and the crew waited another 45mins just to see if it may resurface again. I'd recommend this company if you're looking for a wonderful day out on the water.

  Beautiful experience with highly qualified people as well as animal friendly. Despite a stormy sea very well piloted the boat, we see the experience.
