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.

We had a wonderful experience! Learning about Fungi from our guide Tip, and then seeing the dolphin’s mural along the boatride, was one of the most memorable moments from our time in Ireland! Thank you for hospitality! ~Lauren & Ryan from NYC

A great tour of Irish coastal history with a lovely guide. Meant to be 3hrs but captain spent extra time trying to find us dolphins! We got to see them in the end, so this turned out to be perfect! 🐬

Exceptionally great boat ride. The views are breathtaking and the captain/first mate were very nice and informative. If you're visiting Dingle, this is a great time.

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour on a gorgeous September afternoon. The scenery was stunning and our guide, Brendan, was informative & entertaining. The history of life on the Blasket islands is fascinating. I suggest visiting the Blasket Island Centre before the tour for context & perspective. We were privileged to sight the first humpback whale of the season, along with playful dolphins and sleepy seals. 100% recommend.

Brilliant boat trip to the Blasket Islands. Saw seals and 3 different type of dolphins. Staff were brilliant especially Brendan. He was very informative and we loved it when he started playing his accordion on the way back. Highly recommend it!

Despite a rainy day, we really enjoyed this trip round the bay off Dingle. The crew were entertaining with their stories of the Dolphin that had lived in the bay recently and also about the local history.

Hi Sarah ,

Can the Dingle Boat Tours please explain why reviews with 3 out of 5 or less have been removed?
There was a common theme from very different reviewers regarding the conduct of this and others 'hounding' Fungie.
The reviews were all around the beginning to middle of August last year.
My review was removed even though the business had replied - Now I am not allowed to repeat my review?
Is that odd?????

Hi There ,
We at Dingle dolphin boat tours have no way of knowing if or how any reviews have disappeared from the list of reviews , noone in our company can touch reviews only tripadvisor has this power and everyone is entitled to their opinion in our view .

Bonjour. Les bateaux partent tous les jours à intervalle régulier. Il suffit d'aller les voir et de réserver un créneau. Pour notre part, on était arrivé vers 12h et on a réservé pour 14h. On a eu le temps de manger juste avant chez danno's 😉. Bonne balade.

Does the one hour dolphin tour take you to the caves as well or do you need to go on the sea safari tour?

Dingle, Ireland16 contributions
the 2 hour up close early rib takes you around the area of the cliffs immediate to the Harbour up close with fungie . The sea safari takes you further along Dingle Bay with more views of the caves and cliffs to the Blasket island area

Hmm.... Not sure. I suppose you could call email ahead to see if the firm would mind sitting with him for 2 hours..... Nowhere obvious around the harbour to leave a dog unattended.

As far as I can remember I think there was a ramp to get on board. Although I could not swear to it. My apologies. However, if there is a way the Captain will make every possible effort he can to get you on board. Wish I could be of more help. Best Wishes, Lisa
