Best experience ever! I have wanted to swim with dolphins since I was 9 and I got my chance! It was outstanding! My husband and I loved it!!! I would highly recommend coming to this park and make sure you come early, we stayed open to close watched all the shows and had a blast!

My daughter swam with dolphins and she had an Amauri game timeThe trainers were awesome and very helpful to everyone’s needs they took their time to explain about the animal and the dolphins liked very taken care offDefinitely a trip worth to takeIf we take another Florida trip we will do this againThank you so much we enjoyed our time

Our family loved visiting here!! First time in Miami, and we loved our time there! Spending time interacting with the dolphins at this park was an amazing experience! Thank you to the trainers and staff there for providing such an amazing time for us! Will definitely come back another time!💗🐬

I thoroughly enjoyed the dolphin experience. It was expensive and controlled, but very interactive. At previous experiences with interaction like this they allowed you to keep your towels and wet suit, but they do not allow you to here. I thought for the price and sanitation reasons they should. You got to pet the dolphin on his belly and back. They told us where not to touch for safety reasons. We held on to the dolphins fin and it swam us to the opposite side of the pool. They also taught us some commands and informed us about the dolphin. As you can see we did they did multiple poses with the dolphin. Its definitely a once in a life time thing. Meaning Its worth doing once, bur not multiple times. The pictures are only worth it if your entire group buys their package. If not they are ridiculously priced. The picture website sucks, as well.

They are on time, helpful and courteous. The experience was personal for each person. We were well informed and coached. The ladies in charge of the swim were delightful

Had a great time. Im not sure why the ice cream stand was closed but I appreciated free ice with purchases. Dolphin shows didnt disappoint however their aquarium were really small... and the manatees sorta felt bad for them.

Absolutely amazing experience the animals seem very well taken care of and happy which is huge for me!

Great times! Awesome knowledgeable trainers and fun and friendly dolphins. Highly recommended.

I had a great time swimming with the dolphins :D the only critique is that i wish we couldve swam for longer. you swim from one side of the pool to the other, but not back. other than that it was a great experience that i recommend!

This is an amazing experience! Perfect for all ages, definitely recommend. Just make sure that if you purchase tickets the actual place you will be driving to is not the same address listed. The ones I got are at Miami Seaquarium and general admission is included.

My daughters and I had a great dolphin experience at the Miami Seaquarium! We spent a good amount of time interacting with the dolphins and the instructors were friendly and very knowledgeable. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience!

The dolphin encounter was amazing. The staff was professional. My great niece had a ball and we will be returning back to Miami soon.

This place is magical. The shows are amazing, the staff is friendly, and the dolphin swim was awesome. My daughter and I had an amazing time.

I have wanted to swim with dolphins since I was a child, and Miami Dolphin World did not disappoint! The staff was friendly, professional and knowledgeable, and you could see how much they cared for the dolphins! Their photographers took many photographs that I will have for a lifetime!

Swimming with the dolphins was a once in a lifetime experience that was worth every penny!!! Then as an added bonus, visiting the park at no extra charge completed our day!!

Simply amazing. Alyssa was fantastic and had us interacting with Zo and Cobalt. What a spectacular experience.

Nice place to go with kids

Amazing experience, except for the photos, they cost exactly double the price of the ticket.

We had a lot of fun with the dolphins. The trainers were very good.

Visited from Boston with friends. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I had the pleasure of meeting one of their older dolphins, JJ. I wish we couldve spent more time in the water but the dorsal fin ride was unforgettable!! Would definitely recommend!!

Very professional dolphin program. My kids enjoyed it and had a lot of fun. Staff was friendly and professional. Worth the money and the drive.

Excellent experience! Courteous and knowledgeable trainers

The booking process was super simple (I used the website). The company sent out clear directions and followed up via phone to make sure the tickets and directions were received and clear. My only suggestion would be to check the weather for your booking ahead of time to avoid a negative experience (and $25 service charge to change appointment).The swimming part itself was super fun. I booked it for my wifes birthday and she was ecstatic. You get to play with dolphins, feed them, play with them, kiss them and finally swim with them. You can also check out the rest of the park afterwards (inc its shows) as its included in the cost. We both loved it!

Was very good with Covid restrictions. My friend and I had our own session. We had d an amazing time with the trainers and many opportunities for learning and interaction. It was so much fun and provided great memories. The photo’s were very pricey

Great experience! Polite nice staff. Only 40 min from greeting us to telling us good bye:(

I absolutely loved this experience. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and the animals were beautiful. It was a memorable experience.

The experience was fun and the staff were welcoming and helpful

Love the playtime and that this place rescues and rehabilitate wildlife.

I went for my 25 birthday! It was very nice experience to see a dolphin that close, I heard a lot of interesting information that I didn’t know about dolphins was fun☺️

Their customer service and booking experience was an absolute joke. Very unprofessional and disappointing! They moved our reservation (that was paid in full) without word and rebooked us for a different day that wasn’t even the day stayed to us. Man was very rude and short during the conversation. We will be lucky to get our money back for their mistakes!

It Was Amazing, Went 12/5/18, Had So Much Fun, Dolphins Were Very Well Cared For, Staff Was Excellent, A+, Being Able To Be Right In The Water Interacting With Them Was A Lifetime Experience For Sure, Best Early Christmas Gift To Myself, My Youngest Daughter & Her Boyfriend !! Actually Swimming With Them Was Beyond Awesome !

Overall good experience, wife & son loved the encounter with dolphins. Due to COVID, drect contact with dolphin was a bit limited which of course is not ideal but understandable. Sign up, scheduling and logistics were perfect. Will definitely do again in the future. Thanks again!!Edit, April 2021: As a follow up - While we enjoyed the dolphin experience, I do want to voice my frustration with the digital photos package that we purchased. A photographer was on-hand to take close-up shots throughout the experience and we paid an additional $120 for the standard photo package We were told wed receive over 300 high quality downloadable images online; what we ended up receiving was only about 100 digital photos (with duplicates and triplicates to give the false impression that its over 300), and what was way more frustrating was that the image quality was VERY low and compressed. 700 x 400 to be exact, which is less than 1 megapixel!! Printing anything larger than wallet-size looks blurry and distorted. The photographer had a professional D-SLR camera that clearly takes professional quality pictures, most likely in the 20+ megapixel range, but the pictures were severely compressed via the provided online link. We were looking forward to printing some 8x10 size photos to put in frames, but we cant do that. A waste of money for which I wish I could be reimbursed. OR, if my photos are still out there in their original quality, I would love to get them since I paid for them!!

We had an amazing experience swimming with the dolphins!!

My kids had a blast. Very fun, staff is really nice and we didn’t know the price included the entire park that you can go before and after your booking.

Great place to spend time with children. We are swam with a dolphin. It was unforgettable . Also we watched 2 shows with them. They are amazing.

It was fun watching Dolphin . It was a gorgeous day.

Easy to purchase online (for a vacation later this year). Very affordable, wonderful surprise birthday gift.

My kids love it every time. The new Patterns exhibit is crazy good!

LOVE THIS PLACE! Swimming with Dolphins and the Dolphin trainers - amazing!

My family had the absolute pleasure of visiting Miami Dolphin Tours last week. We did the dolphin experience and the seal experience. What a wonderful place! The trainers were so nice and taught us things we never knew. I also think this place is fantastic because they do rescues and really care about their animals. I would so highly recommend visiting!!

Easy to book online with several options available

Have not been there yet. Scheduled for July

Girlfriend and daughters had a great experience

Nice staff. Loved it

Great experience and worth it! I booked online through Dolphin World. All my questions were answered in a very quick and timely fashion. All of the employees are so nice and knowledgeable about the dolphins. I recommend doing the swimming with dolphins option since its such a great experience that cannot be described with words alone. They are different photo packages available if you choose to purchase photos of the encounter. The professional photographers are taking pictures of you during the experience and their photos come out great since they use professional cameras. I highly recommend swimming with dolphins and the money goes to a good cause!

Very very nice experience, my both kids love it and we have fantastic time.I want to say thank you for stuff guys who working in the park and specially guys who who working with dolphins, they are really really nice and professional!!!Only one problem is when I booked everything everything over the phone I wasn’t informed that we are not going to swim with dolphins and all 30 minutes we were waiting when is that happens ... sorry but I pay over $500 and hasn’t swim with dolphin it really makes me upset.

They’re only getting 4 stars because I did have an actual encounter with dolphins.... BUT what they failed to tell me Is that this “encounter “ isn’t personal with just yourself or the person(s) you came/booked with... it’s you all and others (Complete strangers) so the time is divided up between 6-8 people... not only that but the pictures are a complete rip off! I would strongly advise you to pay that extra $52 so they can take as many free pictures I could go on but I’d rather not you’ll see;)

What an AMAZING experience!!! From the minute John, our driver, picked us up in West Palm Beach, to the second he dropped us back off at the end of the day, we were smiling. The dolphin experience was enjoyable. The only suggestion I would have is for smaller groups with each trainer in order for more interaction with the dolphins and less downtime. We also did the seal experience. It was FANTASTIC! 100% interactive, educational and fun! The trainers were knowledgeable across the board. They were willing to answer any any question. One of my children has special needs and they were incredibly supportive, encouraging, patient and kind. I cannot say enough good things. We have memories for a lifetime (and gorgeous photographs as well!) Id do it again in a heartbeat!

Swimming with the dolphins was an AWESOME fun experience!! We were provided with wet suits, got to get into the water and do a number of activities with the dolphins -- the best being able to swim with them. The instructors/workers were very helpful and friendly. The location is also a plus, going to Key Biscayne is a beautiful place. The only downside of the adventure was having to wait 45 minutes PAST our scheduled start time. We were excited to go, and had to wait what seemed like forever. Once we were finally called in, all was great.

Truly memorable experience,,Fulfilled my childhood dream,,You are going to love it,,

Came over from New York for Dolphin Encounter. Definitely a great experience. My son and I had a blast. They also offer pick up and drop off service with the package. Our drivers name was John, a very pleasant, welcoming person. He definitely made the drive smooth. I was very pleased and definitely coming back again. Thank you ! ;)

One of our last destinations this last vacation, we paid about $60 each to get in the park. There are a lot of premium packages that start around $120 per person to encounter dolphins, penguins, sea lions, and manatees, but they are priced ridiculously high to eliminate participation by the masses. There are VIP tours as well that you can spend hundreds per person on and should schedule days or weeks in advance. This is a great option if you want to spend over $1k for an afternoon for a family of 5.Dolphin show was included but really typical of any zoo show. Probably should splash the audience more to generate some excitement. Kids were done after an hour or so, they have seen many of the tank window views over the years and there did not seem to be any wow factor. There are other shows but the kids were not interested in staying to see them.Park is clean, staff friendly, and parking was easy, but we thought the place was a snooze, not much to see between tanks although the kids did enjoy the elevated obstacle course that had a nominal fee and staffed by very helpful teens.Someone representing the business responded to say there are other free shows which I amended on my review, but I would suggest they visit other similar sites around the country to see that they could to do something to stand out. Brookfield Zoo has a better dolphin show. The birds around the dolphin tank during the show were more fun to watch. There is no reason not to have more excitement between tanks and around the viewing windows. Terribly dated. Probably looked great in the 70’s. But very costly. I was too kind with the three stars, I will amend that as well.

The instructors were absolutely awesome!!!!! They took their time and explained everything very thoroughly and were so polite and pleasant. Getting in the water with the dolphins was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I am so glad that my daughter and I did at this location. It was fun and informative and absolutely a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget. And of course we have amazing pictures that they took as well.Afterwords we got to spend the rest of the day looking at all the other sea life that they had there as well and it was amazing!! Worth every penny spent!!!

We visited the Seaquarium in Miami after Christmas and had a wonderful time. We booked through Miami Swim with Dolphin Tours and had no problems whatsoever. Our girls (15, 18) got to swim with the dolphins and really enjoyed it. The staff there was fantastic, very knowledgeable and nice. They were great explaining everything from the beginning to end. It was really cool to see the dolphins up close! The aquarium had lots of other animals and shows to see. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Miami area.

Had a great time! And this company made it very easy. One quick phone call and arrangements made. Many confirmations sent. Picked us up and drove us down so that we didn’t have to navigate the traffic. John was awesome. Very informative. We felt relaxed and prepared for our encounter. Dropped us at the entrance and got us into the park with no waiting. At the end of the day, John texted us that he had arrived. Couldn’t have been easier. Great company to work with.

The experience was amazing. Only part that was a turn off was the food closed stands before the times they were to close. Other than that, pick up and drop off was awesome. Staff was polite and knowledgeable. Dolphins were adorable!

We had a great time with our 2 young kids (age 7 &5). They absolutely loved the dolphin experience! Couldn’t stop talking about it for days and when we got back home couldn’t wait to show all their friends the pictures. I would highly recommend it. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable.The park ( included with your dolphin experience) is also a great time with lots of touching and feeding opportunities. Stingy rays, parrots, and seals were their favorites plus the killer whale show is super fun! What an amazing mammal! Best of all you can feel good about the fact that they take care of their animals and are very concerned for their well being.

They said they had dolphins but it was really just a catfish in a bathtub 🤷‍♂️

Our experience was worth every Penny spent. The staff and the trainers are very informative. We had so much fun interacting with the Dolphins. Defiantly would recommend this to everyone and we would defiantly go back! The entire facility was great

We received transportation to and from driver was prompt friendly and very helpful. The sea lion and the killer whale shows were good. The actually swim with the dolphins was not as much interaction as we were told. You did get to ride the dolphin once. After that very little interaction.

Excellent experience and the price is very fare

We had a great experience! My six year old daughter loved it! The trainers and everyone working there were so knowledgeable and helpful and cared so much about the dolphins. Its a great experience. Didnt know why we had to wear a wetsuit though?!

Arrived and the facility was very nice. Watched a video about recycling prior to seeing the dolphins. We did swimming with the dolphins, which only included one lap and playing with them. If you are stuck between swimming with the dolphins and the encounter, I would recommend the encounter. Thought there would be a lot more interaction with swimming. However, it was still a great experience! The 30 minutes with the dolphins flies by!

This trip was amazing! John picked us up at the hotel in fort lauderdale and brought us back. He was so friendly and personable! He even came with snacks and drinks! We swam with the dolphins and it was worth every penny! The shows were phenomenal and the staff was so friendly. I cant wait to go back! If youre on the fence DEFINITELY do this!

My sister and I had an amazing experience. The Miami Swim with Dolphin Tours provided transportation to and from West Palm Beach, and completely walked us through the entire process getting us where we needed to be, explaining throughout. The experience itself was amazing, a long time bucket list for me. They filmed the entire experience, and made an incredible video of our entire experience that he sent to us in a timely manner. Anyone looking for a great experience should definitely book through Miami Swim with Dolphin Tours!

Absolutely amazing time! My girlfriend and I will remember this experience forever. The encounter was very accessible to all people and was a joy!

The driver was friendly & we chatted about several interests, which helped pass the 2-hr drive more quickly. We walked straight in, he pointed out where food & shows were, then took us directly to the dolphins. Swimming with the dolphins was amazing! We had small groups, individual attention & they took photos & created an album for each of us. We had the rest of the day to see shows & exhibits. The driver gave us a choice as to how long we wanted to stay. Worth every penny.

I I would call it more of a private dolphin show. As we didnt do much swimming with the dolphins. However the dolphin ride at the end was priceless. It definitely was an unforgettable experience.

It was an awesome experience on my honeymoon. We got to swim and interact with the dolphin. The trainers were really nice too.

Getting to touch a Dolphin has been on my Lists for a long time. But I wanted to do it somewhere I knew they were being treated well. I walked away from this experience feeling that way. The talk they give you before you are allowed in with the Dolphins is informative- How they live in the wild, what they are doing to help the ocean, where not to touch a Dolphin, rules and the fact that they use Dolphins that seek out human interaction for the encounters. The ones that dont want to be petted get used for their shows with the trainers. I had SO MUCH fun! I loved the trainers they had with us and the Dolphins really did seem cool with humans touching them. The only complaint I had was they had us check into the park 2 hrs ahead of time. If you want to see the rest of the park its cool, but if you had other things to do, it was an inconvenience.

This swim is really amazing, no other word captures the sheer fun and exhilaration that you will feel when holding on to the dorsal fin of a dolphin. I felt empowered, excited and nervous all at the same time. I had a fun time petting and touching them, they are amazing animals. Overall I give this experience 5 stars, I have never experienced anything like this and I cant wait to do it again when I return to South Florida. If you are a dolphin lover or just love the water or a new experience this is an absolute must do, you are missing out!!

Swimming with the Dolphin was a very fun experience, although a very quick one. I do wish that I could have swam with the dolphins more than just a minute. The Miami Seaquarium was a unique experience that is definitely more geared towards families. They had shows throughout the day.

The Miami Swim with Dolphins Tour was wonderful! My almost 16 year old grand girl swam while I observed. We both fully enjoyed our part! Our driver John, was very courteous and gave us great information which helped us navigate the Seaquarium. Great time on all accounts.

My driver was excellent. He called me to tell me he was outside my hotel and brought me into the park and over to the dolphin center where I filled out my paperwork. He was extremely helpful with not only giving me all the information I needed for he day about the park but also have us information about things to do around the city. Im very pleased with my experience.

Great experience! We had a wonderful time. You get pictures taken and you get to swim with the dolphin depending on what tour you chose. They educate you about them and also explain you how things will work prior to the encounter. It’s a fun thing to do in Miami, and just over all!!

Wow! I had an absolutely incredible time doing the Dolphin Swim in Miami. The dolphins and their trainers were extremely friendly and fun, and made sure that every single person had the best experience possible! The best part was that one of the dolphins gave me a dorsal fin ride across the pool! I would definitely recommend Dolphin World to all of my family and friends who come down to visit!

Easy to get there via the shuttle they offer! Very helpful once you get to the park too, and flexible pick up times if you don’t want to stay all day. The swimming with dolphin experience was unreal! Definitely reccommend to anyone who wants to see some great animal shows as well!

Amazing experience. John the driver was a pleasure and very informative. The facility is actually a small theme park so there’s much more than advertised. Highly recommended

John, our driver and videographer was a class act. Picked us up at our hotel in the van which was stocked with snacks and drinks. He escorted us to the classroom and the dolphin swim and videotaped the whole experience. He let us pick the time we wanted to leave! One of the funnest times ever! The trainers and dolphins were spectacular. Safety First mindset!!! The photographs taken by the staff photographer will be a great memory! Cant wait to see video❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

We had a very personable driver. It was great that the service was offered to pick us up and drop us off. The dolphin experience was so great the staff is friendly and you can see that they love their jobs and the animals. I would recommend this to anyone.

Please bring a towel when go to sit on or your but will literally burn when you sit down. Besides that its great saw a bunch of dolphins and we stayed out longer than the alotted time.

I surprised my 11-year old daughter with a trip to Florida, specifically to swim with dolphins (her favorite), and we could NOT have had a better experience at Dolphin World! I opted for the pick-up and delivery service since we were staying 2 hours away, and am SO glad that I did (Miami traffic...ugh). Our driver was great! He was polite, informative, offered suggestions, took us inside park and walked with us to swim area. He also recorded our swim experience (for free since I booked so early), edited the video to music, and now we have a FANTASTIC lifelong viewable memory of it! (An outside vendor takes pictures during your swim, but they are extremely expensive!) The trainers were also great ... fun, informative, very knowledgeable, etc. If its possible, you will love dolphins even more after you encounter this experience! Thank you Dolphin World for a FABULOUS time! I would definitely recommend this as a To Do for anyone and everyone!

My mom is 75. She just wanted to swim with the dolphins.They told her to show up 3+ hours before her swim. She don’t need that, nor had the energy to walk around/wait.After all that, she swam ONE small lap with a dolphin. She couldn’t even swim with it back- they told her no.For $300 ya’ get a lot of fluff and extra time, but 3 minutes to actually swim with a dolphin.Not to mention the WAY OVERPRICED additional fees for photos or videos.

I had the most incredible experience with Dolphin World. I did the Seal Swim and Sea Trek Encounter, which both were its own unique and memorable tours. During the Seal Swim I started off by swimming with all the seals, ranging from cute seal pups all the way to full grown seals. Then I was separated into a group and had a one on one experience with different seals, feeding them, touching them, and even kissing them! It was a delightful experience that I will never forget.After was the Sea Trek Encounter where I went under water and experienced life under the sea in person. Wearing a oxygen helmet I traveled under water to the bottom of a 20 ft tank and saw the beautiful sea creatures that live there. Down in the tank I fed sting rays touched a giant purple fish, and even tickled a sea turtle. I had a blast with dolphin world and would highly recommend to any one traveling to South Florida and even locals.

The weather wasnt the best and the water was a bit cold, but we all loved it anyway!Our trainer was so sweet to the kids and had a good sense of humor. The dolphin, Ripley, was so gentle and even our 5 year old seemed to relax around him after just a couple of minutes. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone, especially families with smaller kids. Our are 10, 9, and 5 and it was just as much fun for the adults as it was for them.

Great experience with happy dolphins and friendly trainers. Wouldve been 5 stars except that observers couldnt take pictures from a good angle because of the way things were temporarily arranged. This was a great way to spend the afternoon!

Nice experience to swim with the Dolphins

What a great experience! Being picked up at 9am from our condo in Hallendale beach and drove worry free to swim with the dolphins! It’s an experience of a lifetime. John, our driver, was extremely courteous and made us feel right at home. This is the only way to go. Thank you for such a wonderful day. We will definitely do this again next year when we visit Florida. Thank you!!

Great experience! Our driver picked us up and took us back to our hotel, very accommodating and friendly. This was a the most memorable trip for my 11 year old daughter to be able to swim with the dolphins! Thank you so much!

My daughter, and three children from age 5 to 13 did the Dolphin encounter at the Miami Seaquarium and had a great experience that they will never forget. In addition, we attended several of the shows and found them to exceptional. We would recommend this to anyone.

It was a great experience to be close with the dolphins and to touch and learn about them. I do wish the experience included more time with the dolphins and less time posing for pictures.

The class was informative and the staff were friendly and inviting. This experience was on my bucket list and I will never forget it. I was in Miami for my 60th birthday. The dolphins were very cooperative and entertaining. I am so glad I chose the seaquarium in Miami. You guys rock.

Place was awesome they do an amazing job and even if you dont do the swim with dolphins the park is pretty cool too

This was an incredible experience! The trainers were very fun and put on a great show with the dolphins. I know others that have done different dolphin experiences and havent been able to do as much as we were able to here. I would love to do this again!!

The experience was amazing ! We had enough time for each person to swim with the dolphin. The instructor was very nice can’t wait to take my kids .

We booked our swimming with dolphins for our July trip. They were so helpful and sweet when I asked 50 thousand questions. We get a text and emails with all the information we need. Now we are just counting down the days until vacation so actually get to do the swimming!

I had a good time. The workers there were very kind and understanding about my medical condition. The only thing is, they do make you take all your jewelry out. All earring, nose, lip rings have to be taken out!

Amazing experience. It made the perfect day to do the morning dolphin swim then lunch time sea trec because we ended just in time for the 2 oclock top deck dolphin show. Oh...and the Driver (John) was prompt n friendly. Overall a wonderful experience.

We had a wonderful experience we were picked up In Naples the driver and staff where very friendly. The food and shows were excellent. We really enjoyed the whole day

We were on the fence about doing this, so we did not prebook before our Miami vacation. However, while in town, we ended up deciding to sign up, and I am so glad we did. It takes a lot to WOW at 13 year old boy these days, and I can say that my son was over the moon. We did the Dolphin Swim Adventure, which includes getting a short ride from a dolphin. That was the highlight - only wish the adventure lasted longer. Booking was easy, locker/shower room was big and clean.
