5.00We took the boat ride to see dolphins and we only have compliments! From the first contact, the staff was extremely friendly, professional and attentive. They gave all the explanations clearly and made the experience even more special with their good mood and knowledge of the marine life of the region. The boat was in excellent condition, clean, comfortable and safe, with room for all passengers to move peacefully and enjoy the landscape. The journey was quiet and very well conducted. We were lucky to see several dolphins swimming right off the boat! A truly exciting moment, especially being in an environment that respects animals and nature. I recommend this tour for couples, families or anyone who wants to live something special and unique. It was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip. An incredible day that will stay in memory forever!
Happy experience
