Again, the crew did a great job, performing, dancing and singing. So it was fun overall!
Such a great experience! The crew is friendly, funny, helpful, & informative! I took my whole family - it was great! Swimming with the dolphins in the wild is an experience you won’t forget! I highly recommend!
It's basically your typical snorkeling experience with the added plus of possibly seeing some dolphins for a few seconds.
As a company called "Dolphins and You," my wife and I expected more...well...dolphins. They basically drove for a little over an hour and quickly told us to get out of the boat. We did and two or three dolphins swam under us and that was it. If you're expecting a sort of "swim with the dolphins" experience, this is not it.
It was a very energetic activity and the staff were super helpful.
Cons:
We had fun snorkeling.
That being said we had an awesome experience with these guys and were able to get up close to the dolphins multiple times. We were lucky to spot a whale on our way back as well. The guides were very fun and made the experience even better.
The crew was very entertaining and friendly!
First off this isn’t your typical swim with dolphins experience. If your looking for a touch and swim with dolphins this isn’t it. This is a more natural wild life experience.
We found out about this tour from the Entertainment Book and had a coupon for a buy one, get one experience. Turns out they don't give you a buy one get one experience, but rather offer everyone the tour for $175 each, or $165 for Entertainment members. My three siblings and I still decided to do the tour. The Dolphins and You tour bus picked us up right in front of the Marriott Beach Hotel in Waikiki which was great! The bus was very large, nice, and clean. We were given a thorough explanation of what to expect by two nice and enthusiastic young adult girls on our way to the west side of the island for the Dolphin Tour. They were very informative, helpful, and friendly. We chose to purchase an additional professional photos package ($55 total for a group up to five people) and wet suits ($10 each), while we were riding the bus. We arrived on the west side of the island and everyone in the group (30-40 people) changed into wetsuits and got fitted for snorkel gear and fins. The yacht (with a slide and trampoline) is really more like a boat (with a blow up slide and they decided not to put the trampoline up), so that was disappointing. I wish we had been told it was a boat from the beginning, and I wouldn't have had false expectations. We did get to see dolphins on the tour, but only for a split second. There were 2-4 individuals on the tour who didn't get to see any dolphins. We can tell that this is unusual and the crew worked hard to try to help us see the dolphins. They even gave us a 50% off a future Dolphin Tour because our our bad luck. We did see and swim with a Sea Turtle, which was amazing.
Great family fun, good for all ages, safe . Burgers cooked on the boat was a plus. Nice crew members who are fun loving and make you feel very comfortable. Pick up service in a big bus was good.. We did not have to drive back to the hotel. Video and pictures by our guide/photographer Jeremy were excellent added bonus. Memories to keep forever.
