Too much beauty - This is a must do. The boat trip combines human history, natural history and geographic wonders. Our captain/guide Sean was a delight, and could answer any question you could think of, and there is so much beauty In Dingle, you just owe it to yourself to see it from the sea.

Amazing 2.5 hours! - Declan was an amazing tour guide. He stopped many times when we encountered different pods of dolphins. Very worth the money!

Best way to view Dingle in a clear day. Great for all ages. Would do again. - Fantastic way to both see and experience the Irish coastline from a different angle. Declan was very informative with history and local tales.

Spectacular and adrenaline filled trip - A fantastic fun and exhilarating boat road. Declan the Captain was very knowledgeable and great fun. We stopped off at various points along the way to the Blasket Islands, to be told a little of the history with a few anecdotes thrown in. The scenery was absolutely spectacular, it’s even better if you have driven down the Slea Head Drive before as you can see where you have been. We saw plenty of wildlife including Minke Whales, dolphins, seals, puffins and pufflings (baby puffins). I would highly recommend this trip. I’ll definitely be doing it again

AMAZING day on the water - We booked in on the Rib Adventure during a weekend to Dingle and it was easily the highlight of the entire trip! Declan our skipper was so informative and the views were stunning. The history of the area is very interesting and to get to see the Blasket Island up close was fantastic. We were lucky on the day we went we saw dolphins, basking sharks, seals, puffins and more. The boat was very comfortable but be sure to wrap up well as it gets very cold out on the ocean, now we know why it's called the Wild Atlantic for a reason! Thank you Dingle Boat Tours for a great day on the water, we will be back.

Scam alert - SCAM ALERT! This tour was advertised as being with a marine biologist as our guide and to include sightings of whales and dolphin. There was no informative guide, just a skipper who made some jokes in poor taste about seals and puffins which were the only wildlife we saw (from afar). When the tour began he stated there wouldn’t be time for questions and he offered no scientific input nor did he state he was a biologist. He rushed back to the marina before the tour was supposed to end, with no plan to even look for dolphins or whales. After it was over we heard from many other tourists that they saw whales and dolphins right off the land the same day (a lovely sunny day). We wasted 150$ and 4 hours of our time with this tour. Please have a better experience than we did and go with one of the many other companies in Dingle! I have never experienced such a careless waste of time on a tour.
