What a fabulous day out with Alex & Chinese, great views of this adorable island from the sea. 2 great spots for snorkelling, Alex treated us to 2 great Dolphin experiences and a visit to the small island for shopping. Chinese does a fantastic bbq lunch and drinks are supplied all day. Just to mention to anyone worried about safety, Alex is great and makes sure that everyone is well aware of safety… Tips Take spare clothing as you will get wet.

Absolutely brilliant experience! Feliciano and the guys were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. You’ve got to be quick getting in and out of the boat. Would throughly recommend

This trip was a great deal for the price. The tour operator also graciously waited for our late arrival after we had a miscommunication with our hotel about breakfast and arrived 20 minutes after the agreed upon time. We were very grateful for the tour operator's flexibility! The trip involved going out to sea by boat with 6 other guests and 2 other boatmen, pulling around to another marina to pick up 2 additional guests, and then heading into deep water to "hunt" for dolphins we could swim with. Just before boarding the boat we were also given a welcome bag with snacks in it. So thoughtful. There were a number of boat tour operators out in the same area and I could not help but notice that all of the other boats were packed with way more travelers. I was grateful we were such a small party. After swimming with dolphins in 4 or 5 locations, we snorkeled and swam in a coral reef area for 30-45 minutes and then headed back. The two areas where my husband and I felt that the tour could improve were related to communication-- 1: Explaining how to properly wear the snorkel and mask we were given, as well as troubleshoot issues. We have both snorkeled before but snorkels are not one size fits all and mine kept retaining water until I figured out how to fix it by myself. 2: Explaining the details of diving with the dolphins. We were told we would be looking for two different types of dolphins but not given expectations as to what to do once they were spotted. Once in deep water you will sit on the edge of the boat and, at a moment's notice, be told to jump into the water. After swimming with them, you board the boat again and repeat this process in at least three other areas. It was confusing not knowing how many times we would be jumping back into the water. Myself and several other guests kept returning to our seats on the boat and then finding out we were getting into the water again. This was not a significant issue but explaining at the outset what expectations are is helpful to the guests. I would recommend this tour. The water was gorgeous, the dolphins were amazing to see up close swimming in pods in the wild, (didn't get to touch any, they were too fast!), and the price was very reasonable!

Because of weather conditions the tour was postponed two days. Therefore 26 speedboats with around 10 people on board where chasing the dolphins. It was more a hunt than a swimming with dolphins. This would rather be a case for WWF.

We really enjoyed our trip, we appreciated the fact the team didn’t charge at the dolphins (which so many other tour operators did!) but kept a respectful distance from the edge. We still got to see them up close and we also got to do some snorkelling. Do be prepared though that there were A LOT of other boats - at least 20 - all in the same spot! We booked this only 2 days before and I was a bit worried as they didn’t have many reviews but Feliciano was in touch via WhatsApp shortly after booking. We were staying in Grand Baie and booked a taxi through the hotel, we left at 6am to get there for 7.15am, Feliciano was there to greet us. I recommend this trip!
