    Brilliant trip. Although we didn’t see any dolphins ( we were not really expecting to anyway) the speedboat experience alone was fun. The caves were fascinating and the guide was very informative. They really did try to find the dolphins for us but they were not playing that day! Great experience though. Thoroughly enjoyed it

    Venlig personale der gjorde meget for at finde delfiner, selvom det ikke lykkedes, var det en fantastisk tur med smukke grotter.
