“ Is the Dolphin Tour Worth the Money? ”
Oct 12, 2004, 2:02 PM

I love dolphins, and would love to take this excursion. Is it really worth 50 bucks for 30 minutes?

Most of the dolphin progams run $45+ for just the educational and picture and the time you get to spend with them is about 45 to an hour. Now, for the whole package, swim, educational course, swim launch in the air and photo is $115+ and lasts 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours. It just depends on how crazy you are about dolphins.

Look at it this way. Are you planning on having the opportunity to do it again? If not do it. It is a great experience. We did the whole swim thing. I'm not sure if it was worth 115 but we probably won't have the chance to do it again.
