Dolphin watching tour from RIU Atoll and RIU Palace Maldivas

The staff were very courteous and friendly and although it’s not their fault we didn’t see any dolphins due to the weather which I understand is not their fault.

Over crowded, dangerous high tides, numerous people being sick, no bottled water - only from a container that doesn’t look clean, towels that stunk.

Really enjoyed the trip. Helpful and friendly staff with good pre-trip chat about the dolphins. We were lucky enough to see a large pod just as we were about to come back to the hotel. We loved the big boat and being able to sit upstairs and enjoy the sun and views really made the trip.

Wir sahen viele Gruppen von Spinnerdelfinen. Die Crew fuhr mit dem Boot immer wieder zu den Delfinen. So konnten wir ihre akrobatischen Drehungen und Sprünge gut beobachten. Auf der Rücktour sahen wir noch ein Weibchen mit Baby. War ein sehr schöner Ausflug.

It was a really fantastic experience, the boat ride itself and the view of the dolphins (not within control of the tour, I realise!) Perhaps it would have been good to have some explanation about the environment or more info about the dolphins
