"Great staff and trip! It was so wonderful to see dolphins live. They were very far from coast so we had long time to enjoy also riding on the waves. The caves were also worth seeing. "Lasse, October 8, 2022
"We were a group of 9 friends and had a fantastic day. Super friendly owners and a great boat. We were even lucky enough to see several dolphins swimming alongside our boat for a few minutes.
We can only recommend this tour!"Viktor+Lauritz, September 14, 2024
