    Memorable experience where we came across several species of dolphin and whale and a turtle, even some came right up to the boat. 2 hours felt enough time to see everything. The hosts were great and shared knowledge about the species we saw. Ok the way back the driver opened up the engines so we could go at full speed over the waves.

    Camila and Vladi are the best guides ever! Their smile, their passion help to live this amazing adventure more deeply. We saw beautiful delphins very close to the boat and we were lucky enough tò see also a turtle. Camila Is a young marine biologist and she explained US the behaviour of these Animals.

    A very exciting experience, with a very prepared guide Camila, the communication barrier is not a problem, and a great team, highly recommended.

    Fantastic experience with Francisco and Camilla. Camilla is extremely competent, it was an honour to do this with her. She respects their environment very much and doesn't want to interfere with nature, which I respected deeply. Unfortunately we weren't able to swim with dolphins but we got to see them up close and they made sure we encountered them. Amazing really, truly recommended.

    Went Monday last week (it's Monday today) and seriously screwed up my back. They were competing with another speedboat to get to the dolphins first and it was quite choppy. The boat kept slamming over the waves. The skipper, Francisco, was in the back of the boat and thus didn't feel the impact as much as the front (where I was sitting). After I was really hurt (have not had back problems before) and changed seats towards the back, he did not hold back and seemed to even speed up more on the way back. Even the person that had switched to my front seat asked to switch further back again. I tried to ride the way back standing up to avoid any further impact on my back. I thought I was going to be ok once we arrived, but that evening my back seized up. Since then I'm in major pain when moving and it has not improved during the past 8 days. Yes, we saw many dolphins, but it so wasn't worth it. I travel full-time and if this has caused permanent damage I'll have to give that up. I had to cancel every excursion I had booked.
