★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 623 reviews · 9 hours · from $30

Review of Side’s $30 Dolphin Island boat tour with swimming stops, lunch, foam party, hotel pickup, and practical tips.

“The activity is good, boat is clean, everything as described I think me and my partner were the only English people on the boat, seemed to be mostly German. There is a recorded message played in English to describe the activities, but some things were relayed in German only, such as the returning coach had broken down and a mini bus service was being provided. We both speak a little German so we understood what was going on, and again there were various other small interactions over the intercom system that were only relayed in German. It wasn't a problem for us, but may be for others, not only English…”

“1 Trainer mit viel Hingabe und Leidenschaft und Liebe für die Tiere. alle anderen nur auf Kommerz und absoluten Profit aus. Maschinerie. Tiere werden aus meiner Sicht in einem viel zu kleinen Becken gehalten, zumal es vier Delfine sind. wie die Seelöwen gehalten werden, sieht man leider nicht. Lange Wartezeiten. 230 Euro inklus. Transfer aus Side. Abzuraten”
