I have taken this trip a few times now, and on each occasion I've had an amazing time. The crew are knowledgeable about the dolphins in the area, and always ensure the clients safety. All dietary requirements are catered for, (providing they are notified in advance), and the food is good quality. The crew make sure that everyone has the opportunity to see the dolphins in the water.

This was my second time on the boat. I've sent three gift vouchers to friends in the past to do this tour. My girlfriend and I were absolutely enthralled. The Crew are so friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had a fully involved day. The running of the days activities were extremely well planned and carried out like clockwork, including snacks and lunch. To hear the dolphins chatting away in their whistles and clicks was truly a mind blowing experience. And seeing them underwater and close up.... wow....!!! I mean... wow...!!! no photo anywhere can do the sight justice! This is a must do event for any nature loving person.... and everyone else too!! We are definitely going again next March! Thank you "Perth Wildlife Encounters" for the event Thank you Crew of the 23 March 2024 WOW!!

The tour is extremely well organized and safe. The guides are experienced and have good control of a large international group of tourist. At all moments the event was safe and I felt that the tour has been mastered as to find wild dolphins and create a controlled encounter. The guides are well trained naturalist with high respect for the environment, the animals and the overall tour. I am an experienced diver and marine biologist and had never seen anything like this tour. I highly recommend to tourist of all levels of experience snorkeling.
