Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was my third time on the Dingle Sea safari and I can’t get enough. This particular trip followed several days of storm activity and the ride alone was worth the ticket price. Despite the rough seas we all had a great time. We saw more wildlife than I expected given the conditions. Colm, our captain, did a great job of making everyone feel safe and ensured a good time for all. I can’t wait to go again when I am in Dingle next year.

Bridget did everything to contact us and let us know that on the day we booked the tour the weather will be bad. She then proposed and booked another day. It was incredible. We saw whales, dolphons and gannets feeding. Calum was fantastic. Can only recommend. Great fun and loads to see

We loved the Dingle Peninsula sea safari tour. We saw seals, dolphins, cool rock formations, craggy cliffs and gorgeous views. Our boat driver Colm was informative and engaging. I highly recommend this tour!

I had a lovely trip, and felt very safe, at all times. The trip takes about 2 hours, we saw amazing costal landscape, with explanation on it geology from our skipper Colm. We saw Seals, and Red Deer on the islands.
Bridget in the office is always so very helpful.
I would definitely recommend this trip

Guide was great - lots of interesting info and fabulous views of the scenery - blaskett islands, seals, deer on one of the islands and several pods of playful dolphins. The seas were a bit rough but we hardly felt it because the boat is so well built! Only 12 folks per boat so not too crowded. They provided waterproof pants and jackets - which were helpful since it was a pretty chilly day when we went out. Would go again for sure.

Enjoyed overall but was a little long. Caves amazing, blasket island interesting and seeing dolphins fun but feel like they could have shortened it a bit. Guide was wonderful

For anyone even remotely interested in the ocean and the Irish sea side this is definitely recommended. The close view on the cliffs of the Dingle peninsula as well as the surrounding islands were beautiful to behold. Being able to see so many marine wildlife was an amazing experience.

Note that this is a wild ride at moments so prepare yourself for bouncing across the waves if the sea isn't calm. Don't worry about lacking any proper clothing, you will be given this by the staff.
