See the dolphins - Very nice experience The dream for the family to see dolphins in their natural environment I will do this again Too bad it was a little cold that day. But it was so beautiful that we forgot the cold. The person responsible for the ride, was very friendly. And very nice.

Dolphin and island tour. - This was a fun tour. Unfortunately we didn’t see dolphins but seeing the two islands made it worth it. It was a very enjoyable experience and showed another facet of beautiful faro.

A very nice and unforgettable boat trip - Very well organized and you have the feeling that you are in safe hands. We were lucky enough to spend a long time at the same height as a pod of dolphins, an unforgettable experience. The visits to the islands of Deserta and Farol were very interesting and left good impressions of these totally different islands. 5 stars also for the friendliness of the guides.

NO Dolphins! - NO dolphins, the boat trip was good, but we travelled for over an hour at sea to see no dolphins. As we came back in the guy said the dolphins were shy today, then when we got back to disembark he just got off at another boat and didn’t say anything not even goodbye and left us with the boat driver to return us to the pier. Very unprofessional. Nature is nature but to just get off and not say anything was rude.
