Fantastic trip! Highly recommend! Well worth going on this trip. The boat ride in itself is great, and was incredible seeing a huge pod of dolphins.

Robert_K, Oct 2022
Spent a few days in Gibraltar, whilst there looked for some things to do and Dolphin adventures came up frequently. Booked this tour. Really well organised, English speaking guide, seen plenty of dolphins. the tour is exploring Gibraltar bay for about an hour, the tour is roughly 75 mins long.

Linda_M, Oct 2022
The staff and crew were very knowledgeable about dolphins and did succeed in finding several groups of these fabulous animals. They frequently came close to the boat and we were able to take a lot of pictures. Such a thrill!

Very informative and...
Neil_J, Aug 2022
Very informative and friendly crew. We saw loads of Dolphins. The Skipper and our two guides knew exactly where to find the pods and had good knowledge of individual Dolphins. We were also given a discount by the company to ride the cable car up the rock. Great service and would highly recommend.

Great Trip
Mary_N, Jul 2022
We went on a 12:30 trip and the boat wasn’t overcrowded so we could all see dolphins. There were quite a few dolphins actually but they didn’t come too close. We circled around the bay to see them. The boat was well kept and clean and had a toilet. The only criticism is that it would have been nice to have been welcomed as we boarded.
Response from Host, Jul 2022
Thank you for your review of Dolphin Adventure Gibraltar, the yellow boat. Noted, although crew members would welcome you aboard as they took your tickets just before boarding the boat. We hope to see you again one day on one of our responsible dolphin watching tours
Great dolphin tour
Danielle_W, Jun 2022
We really enjoyed the dolphin tour. Everyone was very nice and we saw a couple different dolphin pods (of the common dolphin in the area). Everything went smoothly and it was a great experience.

Brilliant dolphin spotting trip
David_S, Jun 2022
An absolutely brilliant afternoon. We seen lots of dolphins swimming behind and beside the boat. Boat was comfortable and there was lots of space. Crew were really friendly and clearly enjoyed their work. Amazing value for money. This activity is highly recommended. Many thanks for a great experience

Without cushions and audio I think I take another company next time
dezwakke2_e, May 2022
As you can see on the photo there were NO cushions There are loudspeakers present but they did not work so with the sound of the enigine, wind and people talking we could not hear what the crew was telling.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
We are left confused by your comments. Our dolphin watch sailings are not accompanied by a loudspeaker commentary , our crews give information and anecdotes face to face with groups of passengers on deck. There is no mention in our advertising and promotions of cushions. Prior to boarding it is very apparent that we do not provide padded seats. It is regrettable that you fail to mention the sightings of the dolphins which is the primary aim of the excursion. Even so we would be happy to welcome you back for another sailing and we will have no problem if you wish to bring your own cushion. Thank you for the review.
Stunning trip. Unforgettable!
Gillian_B, May 2022
The sheer number of dolphins swimming around the boat and chasing us as we sailed along was stunning. The crew were fantastic and obviously were very experienced in finding and understanding the dolphins.

Pod
l11cho, Apr 2022
Great trip - got to see a pod of dolphins swimming by the boat. We went out about 30 mins and the dolphins were there - spent about 40 mins around the dolphins then headed back. All very safe and professional.
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Thank you very much for a great review of Dolphin Adventure. We are very pleased that you were satisfied. Please join again one day for another trip on the yellow boat. Thank you once again.
Fantastic, but feel cold on the boat:(
Heyilin_Y, Mar 2022
Fantastic, we saw a lots of dolphins. But feel cold on the boat. In total, my friend and I spent a wonderful trip~
Response from Host, Apr 2022

No guarantee of watching a single dolphin
Swapna_R, Feb 2022
It’s completely useless and dolphin watching is completely depend on the luck, they should have mentioned it when advertising this tour. Costs lots of money for nothing. No refund, no guarantee…
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Thank you for the review of Dolphin Adventure. Our success rate for locating and observing dolphins in the wild is approximately 80% during the time of year that you visited us. These are wild animals and it would be dishonest if we were to guarantee that we will be successful. We do not issue refunds on the rare occasions when we are unable to locate the dolphins ,however, you neglected to mention that you were offered free tickets for another trip which is the industry standard practice. It is unreasonable that you expect a guarantee.

So many dolphins and informative crew.
Cathy_K, Sep 2021
OMG — so many dolphins cavorting in the water — it was fabulous. I finally just put my camera away and enjoyed the show! The young crew member was so passionate about these creatures, it was a pleasure to hear him speak. I would do this again in a heartbeat!
Response from Host, Oct 2021
Thank you very much for taking the time to review Dolphin Adventure the yellow boat . We have our share of pessimistic customers , however , once we are out on the water and observing the dolphins close up , it is not unusual for positive reactions such as yours . Great review , thank you very much
A fantastic experience
Amanda_K, Sep 2021
Amazing trip with at least 50 dolphins surrounding the boat and putting on a fantastic display for us. They clearly enjoy interacting with the boat and it was great to see the baby dolphins playing around. The guides were very knowledgeable and informative, as well as friendly and approachable.

This is genuinely the most incredible experience. To be out, on the open sea watching wild dolphins happy to interact with humans in their own habitat was breathtaking.
