Superbly organized tour. Picked up on time. The two tour guides were great, awesome atmosphere, music on board. The two guides allowed us to swim with these beautiful dolphins without any stress, without pushing, without endangering the dolphins. The food was also very tasty. We can definitely recommend this tour.
