AMAZING!! So much fun! Boat rides, snorkeling and swimming with stingray were also available. This was the best day of our trip.

We had the most fantastic time at Dolphin Cove. It is must for everyone that visits Jamaica. We booked the Dolphin Swim with an upgrade to the Ultimate Swim, if you go to Dolphin Cove the Ultimate Swim cannot be beaten.
Our only gripe is we wish we had been told about all the other activities onsite. We could have spent the whole day there. Although the photos and DVD are expensive they are worth every penny.

Swimming with the dolphins was a lot of fun. The sting ray presentation was interesting and the camels were an added bonus. The commercial photos were overpriced and the driver forgot to pick me up in the morning, but I was able to join a later group.

The tour people were not very enthusiastic and cheerful. They acted like it was work for them. Especially the guy with the big birds on December 14, 2012. They were asking for tips, but there was no tip jar. The jerk chicken in the entrance was actually the best jerk chicken we've had

We had a great time a dolphin cove. Our children really enjoyed swimming with the dolphins and snorkeling. We also got a great deal from Viator. No issues... I will add the transfers to and from your hotel are not included so you would either need to get a cab or arrange for Dolphn Cove transfers (cab might be less restricting and cheaper). If you use Dolphin cove transfers they will tell you what time you have to be ready for the bus and you might feel rushed through the park as there is lots to do. We felt very rushed.

My grand-daughter and her friend had a great time. The only thing is they do not tell you when you book the tour that the transportation is not included in the price and when you get there its quite expensive and you have no choice at that point to use a cab or another source. NOT EVERYONE CARIES CASH OR DEBIT TO A WATER TOUR ACTIVITY ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU THINK EVERYTHING IS PAID BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

I was disappointed that when we got to the park that the transportation was not included in the price, it was not stated as so anywhere when I booked it nor when I contacted the representative at the hotel. I would have done something different had I know that the $75.00 was an enormous amount considering no father than we had to drive.

We had a free upgrade to the Swim With program (2 dolphins). Since we were with 2 instead of 1, we got to do a dorsal fin pull and they also pushed us up in the air from out of the water. It was absolutely incredible! Worth every penny. I recommend getting email addresses from people in your group before you go, though, so you can share the group pictures online when you go home =) They're $80!!!! This was a fantastic experience and I would recommend it to anyone who likes animals. The only downside is how they hound you for tips.. I'm more likely to tip more if it's not asked for 8 million times.

Outstanding time. Grand children really enjoyed the swim while the younger ones loved the touch program. We did by all 4 dvd's photos and videos of both programs. Little disappointing in the amount of time to process.
