The tour was stunning, we got to see different groups of dolphins and other animals, unfortunately no whales but that’s not to expect if ur not visiting a zoo. That’s nature. I really loved that trip and would highly recommend it!”

Even if you don't have a jetski license they let you drive around a huge circuit which is very fun. We were three unexperienced people and we had a lot of fun. Our experience was absolutely priceworthy and a nice addition to our trip to madeira. 10/10”
