You will then head to Tamarin Bay for the dolphin encounter. The skippers will accompany you in the water when it’s your turn to swim with the dolphins.

Depending on the amount of time left, you will then go to The Aquarium, a popular snorkelling and diving site with beautiful coral and tropical fish.

Sadly not 2.5 hours in the water with dolphins. the entire boat trip lasted under 2 hrs, with most of the time travelling. Lots of boats with you jumping in for 2 Min swim, then out, race ahead and repeated. +No snorkeling even thou had time. Rest of day was good, great driver and tortoise park was fun.

This tour is definitely recommended! The private tour car picks you up at your hotel early in the morning. First we went to Tamarin Bay and from there, took a speed boat of 10 people into the depths of Indian Ocean to chase dolphins. It was an incredible experience to see wild dolphins swim around you in their natural habitat! From there, we went to Crocodile Park, where we saw animals wandering about freely inside a park, which is not like any other animal parks. We saw tortoises in free environment, deers walking around guests. It is a must-see place in Mauritius. We also went to see Gris-Gris, rocks with amazing landscape and waves. It was a tiring day but definitely worth doing. This tour is so recommended!

Un tour incroyablement beau et très recommandable ! Notre guide Kesaven a pris le temps de tout nous expliquer sur l'île et n'a laissé aucune question sans réponse. Notre point fort personnel a été la baignade avec les dauphins sauvages. C'était une journée merveilleuse et magique dont nous garderons un très bon souvenir. MERCI! Chauffeur prudent et habile pour trouver des détours rapides et nous faisant gagner du temps dans la circulation. Nous recommandons Kesaven comme guide, nous avons été très satisfaits de ses services.

Die Delfine werden sehr respektiert und es findet kein eingrenzen statt, eher ein nebenher fahren. Das schnorcheln war wunderschön. Auch die restlichen Punkte aus dieser Tour sind sehr sehenswert und lohnenswert. Der Service war einwandfrei!!!!
