We had the most amazing time, the rib was fast and fun, the guides knowledgeable and considerate of the animals and we saw whales and dolphins, incredibly close. Spotters work really well and we actually saw a blue whale!!! Thank you!

We really enjoyed this trip and would definitely do it again next time we're in Madeira. The day we booked for was really bad weather. The guides managed expectations, but still took us out on the boat for 30 minutes to see if we could find any wildlife. We did spot a couple of spotted dolphins, but the guides decided the conditions were not good enough to continue. The office booked us onto the next day without stress and we saw a pod of 30+ bottlenose dolphins which was magical, and common dolphins hunting. The guides are very knowledgeable and I appreciated that this tour didn't disturb the wildlife. We even picked rubbish out of the ocean. The speedboat was also great fun. Would definitely recommend this company.

We were by far the oldest (over 60/over 70) on this exciting dolphin and whale watching tour, which was made entertaining and varied by the tour leader Lino. To our surprise, despite our very youthful driving style, we never got wet, and what was even more astonishing: even with our sensitive stomachs, we didn't feel sick for a second - despite the lively Atlantic waves. So: absolutely recommended!

A fantastic experience for the young people on the boat, for some the first and memorable observation of dolphins and whales. Everyone enjoyed the experience and would definitely repeat it. Very competent and lively crew.

A lovely tour off-island. Fast boats, knowledgable guide, and up-close wildlife! Bring a jacket and sunscreen; you might need both!

What a beautiful and special experience this cruise was with H2o! Their passion for nature and marine animals is evident. Nice to see how much respect the crew has for their habitat. Highly recommended!

Absolutely brilliant trip. Saw four different types of dolphin, very knowledgeable guide. Speedy boat ride was as exhilarating as seeing the dolphins

Excellent guides, we managed to see 3 families of dolphins, and the final "drifts" to wake the people up made the experience even more fun!

Nice Tour but be aware that it is a small boat you should like a bumpy ride. We haven't seen whales but Tons of dolphins. Better than in Funchal.

Exceptional experience! The team on the boat was very friendly, they explained the specificities of the species to us well. They went out of their way to find as many animals as possible to show us.

There is an additional option, the possibility of swimming with dolphins. This is an additional cost. The experience lasts a few minutes, and is clearly magical. Unforgettable memories
