Full description

This day-trip from Seville provides you with an opportunity to spot a variety of beautiful animals. Sailing for about 2 hours in the waters of the straits, look out for numerous species of dolphins, orcas, and whales in the wild, in a respectful manner. The fascinating experience sails through the Strait of Gibraltar, an area declared an International Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 2006. The area provides an added thrill when friendly inhabitants of its waters, whales and dolphins, approach the boats to exhibit themselves and satisfy the curiosity of tourists. In the Strait of Gibraltar, an area declared a Biosphere Reserve, there are 7 different species of cetaceans that, depending on their migratory routes, the abundance of food, and reproduction periods, live permanently or spend some time in this privileged marine area: the meeting point of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. After the cruise, spend the rest of the day sunbathing at the beach.

The ride to Tarifa was a bit longer than expected but a comfortable bus made us forget about that. We were the only ones on the bus for the Whale Watching tour, the rest on the bus went to Morocco with the guide. The guide already booked our tickets for our tour, so once off the bus we went to the meeting point to get our ticket and had about an hour left before the start of the tour. After exploring the coastline it was time to depart. The whale watching experience was amazing, we saw about 6 or 7 whales and 2 groups of dolphins. The second group even played with the boat, they loved entertaining us. Once back, we had about 4 hours left to do whatever we want untill the others came back, so we went for an afternoon to the beach, sunbathing, swimming, walking,... It really was an amazing experience and a nice day off!

It was an extremely disappointing experience for us. We were told by your agency that this will be a whale watching tour and day trip but all that happened was we were clubbed with a bus full of people going to Tangier. We were dropped at the Port, and left behind all alone in this supposed day trip to figure out the day on our own. We were all by ourselves for the whole day before and after the tour. We were asked to wait until 8.30pm in the evening which is when the Tangier group was expected to return to the Port, with nothing to do after 2pm in the afternoon. This is disappointing, and they charged us 180 dollars just to get us on a ferry which was 30 euros per person. If there was nothing for the trip other than the ferry, and if we were the only 2 people for that trip they should have let us know in advance when we kept asking for the itinerary. Expecting us to wait 6.5 hours all by ourselves doing nothing with no guide and no tour group and charging so for that is terrible
