Wunderbares Erlebnis
Die Crew war super nett. Die Delfine in der freien Natur zu erleben war unvergesslich. Absolut zu empfehlen!

Toller Tag
Die Crew ist absolut freundlich und erzählt viel interessantes. Hatten leider das Pech keine Delphine oder Wale zu sehen aber die Bootsfahrt war dennoch sehr schön.

Traumhaft!
Die Tour war durch und durch ein Erfolg! Wir haben unglaublich viele Delphine und deren Babys, Haie,... gesehen und die Crew an Board war super nett und hilfsbereit. Sehr empfehlenswert, wir würden es immer wieder aufs Neue machen.
