Had a great time! Communication and pick up were easy. We saw way more dolphins than expected and our guide took awesome videos for us on my camera. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed the tour. We already saw dolphins in Kizimkazi but you can’t compare that to how many we saw on this tour. It was amazing. The tour guide was also very nice and friendly. Explaining everything, answering our questions and making sure we were okay. He even jumped into the water with us telling us where to look for the dolphins and fish. Overall we loved it and would recommend to book with Barnaba tours.

Fantastic tour! We had a great time snorkeling, swimming near the beautiful sandbank and swimming with the dolphins. The captain and guide onboard are skilled at finding dolphins and positioning the boat so we could enjoy a quick swim with the passing dolphins (and we did this 5 times!). Thanks again. Would recommend.
