    Ein tolles Erlebnis - Mitarbeiter waren sehr bemüht, den seekranken Gästen mit z.B. kalten Nackenkompressen zu helfen. Irgendwie hat mir etwas Typisches zum Essen bzw. zum Trinken gefehlt und vielleicht etwas landestypische Musik.

    The staff were all very friendly, couldn’t have done any more to help us see the dolphins. They invited us into their cabin to see the dolphins as it was difficult to see as everyone was super excited to see the dolphins. The weather was fantastic and we were treated to see lots of dolphins all around the boat, even babies too which were very cute indeed. Would highly recommend this trip.

    De eerste dag was het slecht weer en hebben we geen dolfijnen gezien, daarom hadden we de kans om nog een keer mee te gaan. Met stralend weer vertrokken en hebben heel veel dolfijnen gezien. Goede informatie gekregen, vriendelijk personeel. De moeite waard.
