Great tour of ten thousand Islands. Jessica and Marco were knowledgable and engaging which made the experience really enjoyable with a personal feel. Loved the fact that they are ecologically minded and passionate about preserving the habitat. They know the dolphins individually and shared great insights into their behaviours.
Educational and fun

My friends and I had a delightful time with Rachel and Katie. These women were knowledgeable about the marine life and both had degrees marine biology and environmental studies They were extremely enthusiastic and fun and entertaining.
We got to meet some dolphins up close, who decided to show off and gave us quite a show. We saw many birds and wildlife. The length was perfect and we enjoyed it immensely. Fun for all ages. We recommend it highly.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
