Fun experience - We were picked up from our accommodation, which was a little further away, by a tuk-tuk. We therefore agreed a pick-up fee with the organiser, which was totally fair. This was solely due to our accommodation and normally the pick-up service in the surrounding area is included in the price. When we arrived, we got straight into the motorboat, we were the only ones as it is a private tour. The two drivers were super friendly and as soon as something was in sight, they accelerated to get close to it quickly. We saw lots of dolphins in our immediate vicinity very early on. And luckily for us, we even saw a whale. As the other tours were probably not so successful, they were contacted by our guide and also travelled to our spot. I have to say, we had great guides. When we were back near the coast, we had bananas, delicious biscuits and water. I can highly recommend the tour. We came without any expectations and saw more than we thought we would. Of course, it always depends on how lucky you are ;)

Excellent crew for dolphin and whale watching. - Dolphin and whale watching experience. It was an excellent trip. Very safe and very good crew. Mr Vanam is such a nice person and his crew member Dinesh was very kind and sensitive. We enjoyed the long ride and were lucky enough to spot a few dolphins! No whale though , we can come back at a later time in the year to spot whales. Will stay in touch with you. Thanks for organising this.
