We had a fantastic trip with three swimming stops and were able to observe a dolphin family extensively. Everyone on board was very friendly.
Mickey the guide is very welcoming and friendly, and the three stops are superb. However, a major disappointment was that all the commentary was in Italian, which was disappointing for French speakers like us. The explanations regarding the boat's location were imprecise and could have saved us some searching.
