Really jealous that I wasn't on that trip, the whale sightings are very, very rare but we always keep a look out for whales. Thank you so much for posting your review. As we always brief passengers as we come out of 'No Do' season there is a greater chance of no dolphins and a greater than usual but slim...

I was stopping in Estepona for the week and a friend of mine, Becky, who was marrying in Gibraltar on 12 May had told me about this. Me, Vicky, Claire and Kennedy had always intended on coming over to Gib for the day and luckily for us Becky decided to 'Tag along'. She had previously been on a Dolphin...

Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review and we all hope that Becky's wedding in Gibraltar was a magical one. It was a pleasure to have you all on the boat and so glad that you weren't deterred by comments from certain people in a certain bar. It is a competitive industry and we all...

Friends got in ahead of me to review our recent trip, but I thought I'd just add my 2ps worth as the bride de jour. I'd just like to thank Fiona and the crew for making a major contribution to what really was a perfect day. Her help and enthusiasm when organising the trip was very much appreciated - and...

Thank you so much for posting a review, really glad you enjoyed it, even if it was a bit wet. Graham will be very pleased to hear your kind words, he works so hard on the boat, as do all the crew, but I will make sure he gets to read your review. Many thanks. Fiona

We were staying in the Marina Village itself just up from the departure point so passed by the boat every day. As a result the guy who is on the dock touting for business had a chat with us each time we passed trying to encourage us to go (he was never overbearing & we were quite happy to spend...

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I will make sure that Valentino gets to read it as well as all of the crew. It is so good to hear that you enjoyed the trip. March and April are challenging times for sales, office, crew and sometimes customers as there are less dolphins during this time and they are...

What an amazing afternoon looking for dolphins etc in the bay and then out into the Gibraltar Straights. And yes we saw several dolphin pods who were busy chasing fish. The crew ensured we had a lifejacket drill and where they are located, very important ! There was no doubt the crew were professional and determined to find the dolphins...
