Great time snorkeling - I had an amazing time snorkeling with Captain Jeff and two other tourists! He guided us throughout the tour, showing us different fish and coral. We also saw a snake at the bottom of the ocean! At the end, we enjoyed some time relaxing on “Bubble Beach” with some Peanut Punch. 10/10 would recommend. The only thing I’d do differently is bring a camera bag to take pictures underwater!

Unique snorkeling experience - Excellent shore excursion. Only 6 of us on this trip. The captain and first mate provided exceptional service. The captain snorkeled with us and pointed out various sea life. The snorkeling was great-swimming in the bubbles surrounded by marine life and nice colored coral, After visiting a couple of snorkeling sport, we stopped at a small beach to enjoy the warm water from the volcanic activity. The trip was finished off with an excellent homemade run punch. When visiting this island again i would definitely report this shore excursion!

Fantastic Tour and They Have a Store for Gift Purchases! - Using the Waitukubuli Adventure Tour Co. led to the best day of my cruise! They had excellent communication and were well organized for my snorkel tour. Captain Jeff led a snorkel tour of Champaign Beach where the warm waters are from the nearby volcano. He took the time to point our the creatures of the sea and a canon from long ago now under coral. We also went to a snorkel location of recent volcano activity that was also very nice. The views were amazing and the water was clear.
After my tour, I went with Victoria to the shop a block from the excursion meeting location. She has a great little shop and will make your day to have a conversation with her. She will be the one that organizes the tours in the morning. I bought a few shirts and trinkets for family and headed back to the ship. Dominica was the best because of this company, their store, and the people.

Definitely Worth Doing - Pros
There were only five people on the tour. Very intimate.
The guide was tremendous. Super informative and caring. He genuinely wanted everyone to have an amazing time. He was regularly pointing out really cool things like a sea turtle.
We’ve been on numerous snorkeling trips throughout the Caribbean and this was one of the better reefs.
Champagne beach was worth seeing. Thousands of bubbles from the underground volcano.
Cons
It was a little on the long side of actual snorkeling. Not necessarily a bad thing but you need to be at least a decent swimmer.
Overall, I would highly recommend it.

THE MOST INCREDIBLE TOUR! - THE MOST INCREDIBLE TOUR! I loved this day and will keep it as one of my Top memories on my cruise contract. We loved how efficient Tiffany was at our meeting point and our Captain Jeff was just so much fun. He took us on a snorkel adventure showing us aqua life and the incredible champagne reef ( active volcano). The day was shared with incredible friends, 2 reef snorkel spots and finishing with a volcano natural hot tub. PERFECT DAY and I would recommend this tour in a heart beat!

Loved this - Captain Jeff was great, always catering to our needs. Our group was small (5 people including me) so it was basically a private tour. We snorkeled at two different spots - the coral was nice and there were many fish. The champagne area where bubbles came up from the ocean floor was really unique. Captain Jeff pointed out different types of coral and fish. Then, we went to a geothermal pool at bubble beach. It was low tide so we only wet our feet but it was lovely nonetheless. We had plenty of time to get in the water again at Bubble Beach to just enjoy the clear Dominica water. The over all the trip lasted a little over 4 hours and was well worth it.

Champagne beach is something unique - Swimming through the fizzy champagne bubbles was really cool! We saw lots of sea life at that stop. The other two stops were not interesting but taking the boat ride there was worth it , as there are lots of beautiful views of towns nestled between the volcanoes.

Another fantastic day out - This is the third trip with the company. We have also been whale watching and fishing. The communication is excellent from booking to final drop off. The guides have all been very friendly and really go out of their way to ensure you enjoy the day. This is a family run business and we would definitely recommend them.

A Wonderful Overview of Dominica - My husband and I were originally just doing the snorkeling with the champagne bubbles, but we join four others to do a full tour of the city, and I’m so glad we did. I feel as if I got a great overview of Dominica while the cruise ship was in port. Tiffany was a fantastic host and tour guide. We started with snorkeling in the champagne bubbles. While Tiffany stay with our belongings, she had a guide take our group in the water. He pointed out different items in the water. We got to hold a short needle sea urchin and feel it suck our hands with its mouth. The guide brought up water from the bubbles and poured it in our hands to surprise us with just how warm the water was compared to the ocean water. While we walked in the water from the beach, the shore was rocky. But, we had help getting in and out. We were able to dame some local food and soft drinks for lunch. We also visited the scenic double waterfall Trafalgar Falls. But, my favorite stops were Titou Gorge, and the hot springs. Titou Gorge was swimming through moss and fern covered caves ending in a waterfall. I regret that I didn’t have my camera to capture its beauty. The hot springs were so relaxing and honestly made our skin so soft. Tiffany shared a taste of rum made from a fifty year old family recipe. Thank you, Tiffany, for a memorable experience and for all of your kindness in sharing your country with us! And she got us back to our ship on time!

Be careful booking with this company - Be careful booking with this company. What you see may not be what you get. If I could rate this a zero I would! They down sized the boat due to number of guests. It was down sized to an open bow with a fish deck in the back and tried to pass it off. We did not get on the boat nor take the excursion. When I contacted the operator, the response we degrading and unprofessional.
