Dolphin Safari Charters Key West FL Reviews

Wonderful dolphin watching and snorkeling experience! We had a really great experience! The guides were friendly, professional, and made the trip very enjoyable. Seeing dolphins in their natural habitat was absolutely wonderful and definitely one of the highlights of our visit to Key West. We also really enjoyed the swimming and snorkeling stop in a beautiful spot with clear water. Everything was well organized and the atmosphere on board was relaxed and friendly. A fantastic experience for the whole family. We would definitely recommend it!

Excellent afternoon out. We brought some of our own food and drink but tbh other than alcohol you have waters, soda and a few snacks. We got so see some dolphins, swim on a sand bar and snorkel (supplied) over an old ship wreck. Melanie was our captain and she was the right level of interaction for a private charter. Obviously it comes with a cost but well worth it if you get the chance.

Inoubliable !! Je recommande !! Depuis 4 ans, nous réservons une sortie Dolphins et snorkelling avec Dolphin safari charter à Key West et c'est toujours aussi magique !! Voir les dauphins évoluer dans leur milieu naturel est un privilège, profiter du snorkelling et des sand bar aussi ! Eric le Boss est vraiment sympathique tout comme ses capitaines.

Merci beaucoup, Isabelle, ma cousine Français 😁 C’est toujours un immense plaisir de vous revoir! Et bien sûr, un grand bonjour à votre fils, nous lui souhaitons beaucoup de réussite dans sa carrière de pilote d’hélicoptère ! Nous sommes vraiment heureux que vous profitiez toujours autant de vos sorties avec nous. Et les dauphins semblent eux aussi avoir pris l’habitude d’être au rendez-vous pour vous dire bonjour ! À très bientôt à Key West !

toller Ausflug, wir sind total begeistert, der Kapitän versteht was von seiner Arbeit! Tolle Bootsfahrt, toller Delfin Spot, 2x extrem cooler Schnorchel Spot, wunderschöner Sonnenuntergang! Das war jeden Euro wert !

Très belle expérience en petit nombre. Notre guide était super et nous a permis de prendre le temps notamment avec les dauphins.

Formidable expérience ! Nous y étions en famille à 5. 1 bateau et 1 capitaine pour nous seuls. Bateau confortable et puissant, capitaine qui vous met a l'aise très rapidement. C'est parti pour aller rencontrer les dauphins, parcours agréable. Les dauphins sont vite repérés : pas d'approche agressive, le bateau accompagne la progression des dauphins, certains viennent près du bateau... Plus tard on repart. Direction un joli spot de snorkeling, tout le matériel est fourni. L'endroit est riche : poissons colorés, barracudas, requins, raies, ... On en a plein les yeux. Vient le temps de tranquillement repartir, retour avec de belles accélérations et des sauts sur les vagues pour l'immense plaisir des enfants. Captain John a vu que ça leur plaisait et c'est toute la finesse de ce capitaine de savoir s'adapter à ses clients. Un tip à la fin est possible mais aucune pression sur cela, à vous de décider. Nous avons trouvé que c'était mérité par la qualité de la prestation, l'implication de John, les explications, le petit quart d'heure supplémentaire, etc. Top expérience dans les keys. Parking facile et gratuit. John est top mais toute l'équipe semble au top. Nous conseillons cette activité à tous les européens de passage. Nos enfants ont adoré !

Vejret var dårlig ude på havet, så vi fik valget om at tage afsted i det dårlige vejr og se delfiner eller kun snorkle. Vi var 4 ombord og de 2 andre var amerikaner og guiden/kaptajnen talte 90 % af tiden kun med dem. Ingen af os havde lyst til at blive søsyge. Så vi sejlede ud og snorklede i ca 30-45 min og så tilbage. Det var en meget dyr tur på over 1650 Kr. Så jeg vil aldrig booke en så dyr tur igen hvor de reklamere med kun 6 personer/lille gruppe. Så hellere billiger og flere personer. Så føler man da ikke at man har mistet så mange penge. Jeg var så skuffet over at have betalt så mange penge for at snorkle i 30-45 min. Jeg havde min 15 årige søn med.

We had an absolutely amazing time out in the Gulf with Tim! Very knowledgable and took us to some brilliant spots to see Dolphins and to the sandbar for snorkelling, we even saw a Sail Fish (even if he was a bit lost!) Would definitely use Dolphin Safari Tours again and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed semi private tour. Thank you to Tim for such an enjoyable experience!
