"It was a wonderful tour. We always followed the dolphins at a safe distance. We had the opportunity to observe a small family several times. There was also plenty of information in German about the islands we passed. We were out for almost two hours, and refreshments were even provided on board.
My family enjoyed it very much, and we would book it again."Nicole · May 2026
"Very nice, friendly, and clear service.
They also made time for a chat. Nice boat and had no problems. Going again tomorrow, then we'll rent a jet ski!😃
"Roeland · July 2026
"It was a great trip, even with children (6, 11 years old). The older one had a lot of fun cliff jumping and the younger one had fun swimming and snorkeling. But of course the trip was great too. Simply a completely successful trip with a very nice young lady who drove us. We would be happy to do it again any time."Nicole · September 2024

"It was a wonderful boat trip with many beautiful moments: the swimming bay, feeding the seagulls, the sea itself, a little history lesson... But the unexpected brief encounter with the dolphins was the most moving 😍🙏"
