Highlights
About this trip
A private charter removes the two things people worry about: other guests and fixed timing. You tell us when you want to leave the marina, we tell you when the dolphins are most likely to be resting, and we meet in the middle. The guide is dedicated to your group in the water, which matters with kids or nervous swimmers.
The route is the same as the shared half-day: 15 minutes to Samadai, 45 minutes with the pod, a rest with water and snacks, 40 minutes on the coral, and back. Want to stay longer at the lagoon or add a third stop at Marsa Mubarak for turtles? Ask, and we quote it.
