Don't miss this activity. You can "swim with dolphins" in the US or really swim with them in Ixtapa, Mexico. It was a wonderful experience. More

The rate was really good if you have over 3 people in your group and the experience was like none other! Very cool and very kid friendly too! More

I'd like to start off first by saying the best deal your going to get is by going through Delfiniti alone for the lowest rate. Check the lobby area of your hotel, there may be a representative there that will book your trip for you. You can go either 10am-12pm-4pm. He won't take any money up front, you must pay... More

It was a dream to swim with dolphins, and the experience was amazing... but a I was a little concerned about the happiness of the animals, as they are doing the same thing all the time.... But I have no evidence that they were not as happy and healthy as the trainers said. More

We liked everything about the experience except that we were not allowed to take photographs ourselves, but we understand that they need to earn additional funds with their photographs, which were excellent. More

We took our little girl here, as she was so keen to swim with these beautiful mammals. Overall it was a nice experience, but I would have prefered to see them in their natural habitat. It was our choice to go, and I only hope they are really well looked after and have some release from being in those pools... More

Swimming with the dolphins at Delfiniti met all our (high) expectations. With 3 generations present, we chose the 25 minute "encounter" so that all six of us (ranging from 3 years old to 70+) could be in the water with the dolphins together. The staff of Delfiniti provided good explanation and took the time to answer any questions we had.... More
