Amazing Views and Staff! - I had a great time on this tour! The staff were funny and amazing! The dolphins and caves were beautiful and super cool to see! The driver and guide would play music that would match where we were which added to the fun.

To do, nice boat ride and nice atmosphere - Nice team, who speaks very well English and French, good music and adequate-suited to the journey. They did not hesitate to go longer than expected and went to the trouble to make it last so that we could see the dolphins on the final....Good atmosphere, to recommend!

Fantastic tour with great crew and dolphin sighting - Fantastic tour with great crew and dolphin sighting!
This tour was really great! The crew was super entertaining and created a great atmosphere. The absolute highlight was of course watching the dolphins. It was nice to see that care was taken to disturb the animals as little as possible. We also drove very far into the impressive caves. The crew was just great! Highly recommended!

Amazing excursion! - Amazing experience. We were with our 3 children (6/11 and 14 years) and we had so many sensations! It was beautiful! Explanations in French, English and Portuguese. Swimming along the way for the brave! Bring your windbreaker and put on pants because the power of the boat and the wind melts that it is cool offshore. The crew really looked for the dolphins but we didn't see them. It doesn't matter, Pedro and his colleague are friendly and invested! We expected anything but this ambient ride. Thank you!

A very nice excursion - Very nice experience!
The excursion is really to be done and being on a small boat, close to the water, gives good sensations: my teens loved it and didn't see the 2 hours pass!
The crew is very friendly and speaks French. The discovery of the caves is beautiful and we were really able to observe the dolphins close to us.
I recommend this provider +++

Amazing! We saw the dolphins! - A 21st birthday treat for our daughter in the hope to see dolphins… and we did! Which was amazing!
The hosts were absolutely brilliant, great atmosphere, a fun experience, riding the waves, (worth getting wet!)
Unfortunately due to the ‘choppy waves’ we couldn’t enter the caves but the driver got us up close with great photo shots.
Would highly recommend this trip, we loved it, thank you!
