    It was amazing getting to swim and interact with the dolphins, however when we got there they made us wait for about 45mins - 1hr just to get in the park. We also noticed some people only paid for interaction package however they got the full 2 dolphin experience like ourselves so we paid nearly double if not more for them to have the same experience! You’re not allowed to take your own photos and the rate they charge was quite high. But being with the dolphins I highly recommend for all ages

    My father (he’s in his 70s) and I had an amazing time. We booked the Excellence Swim, and it really was excellent — it definitely didn’t disappoint. The dolphins all looked very well cared for and well fed, with plenty of space to swim. They were such gentle and intelligent animals. The instructor was great and made the whole experience even better. My favorite part was doing the “Supergirl” pose while the dolphins swam underneath me. It’s an experience I’ll never forget. Thank you so much!

    Firstly we missed our 1st trip on Friday 28/11, as we stood outside our hotel and not at the outside gate by security. When the coach didn’t arrive , I went and saw the Tui rep ( Emanuel ) who did try to turn the bus around for us , sadly the driver couldn’t come back. But they texted us that day and we rebooked for Monday 01/12. Thank you ! We loved this experience, the photo guys wernt pushing us to buy. But we did get the video. Even the lady at the end informed us what time our bus was !

    I really enjoyed the transport and the experience with no wasting of time. We saw the parrots, the sea lion and the dolphins. We also fed the wee parrots. Unfortunately, you do not have the possibility to take pictures as you have to leave your belongings in the lockers and the price of the photos are crazy! 150 dollars for all the pictures and if you want to print one it’s 38 dollars. Crazy if you think how much we paid the ticket already. Monkeyland’s price for a printed photo is 10 dollars

    I wish I could leave a 5 ?? plus review, but unfortunately I can't give more than 2 stars for the experience, especially since this vacation and experience was to mark 20 years of marriage.We bought the most expensive ticket option to fully enjoy the experience with 2 dolphins, but the instructor assigned to our group of 8 people was having a bad day and was more concerned with having various disagreements with one of his supervisors throughout the swim session, thus skipping more stages ??

    The guides were very knowledgeable and able to answer every question we had, the experience wasn’t just for money they genuinely cared for the animals. You don’t need to be a good swimmer for this trip but I’d definitely recommend the excellence package! It was amazing!
