Swim with dolphins at Delphinus Cancun in a small group, with 10 guided activities, aquarium admission, and a short dolphin session.
“We loved this experience, it was something we’ve always wanted to do and it didn’t disappoint. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming and the dolphins were all very calm and you get to see their behaviours beforehand which the guide reassures you of, but with a 5 year old it was definitely something in the back of our heads we were wondering. Worth every penny.”
