The crew was super friendly. We swam with dolphins and even saw young dolphins. The wetsuits are very thick so you don't get cold in the water.
We saw many dolphins and swam with them, but they didn’t come that close to us. Maybe 5-10 meters from us.
Went swimming with dolphins a couple of days ago, and it was absolutely perfect! Thanks to the crew (Alistair, Brody and Dave) we learnt so much about the surroundings and the wildlife! We were lucky enough that the dolphins wanted to swim with us. Even saw some pinguins, albatross and giant petrel! The crew was super enthusiastic, which made it all the more fun. Thanks for the unforgettable experience!
We did the wildlife cruise and really enjoyed it. We saw lots of wildlife including lots of dolphins! Crew we're lovely and very knowledgeable. Would recommend even in winter!
We were unlucky that the dolphins did not want to swim with us. However, we saw many of them, jumping in and out of the water behind a fisherman’s boat, we also saw a Royal albatros, yellow eyed penguin, blue pinguïn, baby seals, ... Overall a good trip!
Excellent cruise for 2 hours with many sea creatures including dolphins, variety of birds, sea lions etc.
Our family of 7 got desembarked because one of the kids was not 8. We felt this was really unfair to let us all get in suits and in the boat to tell us eventually that we had to leave. To our opinion the true reason was overbooking there were 14 swimmers instead of the 12 authorized in the Boat. Plus we struggled to get refunded.
Very expensive for a stroll in the bay.... We saw just a little dolphin, overrated.
Too bad for us, but we could not swim with the dolphins because the dolphins did not want it. Nevertheless, the crew respects them, which is perfect for me. We still could see beautiful jumps and a baby playing in the water (so cute!). Some birds too and a blue penguin;)
Swim with the dolphins. Fabulous. Pip, at booking office fantastic
