I was very disappointed with poor communication from guide and company that took us. I booked via Tripadvisor in advance and payed for my trip. I read everything carefully, what i should do before the trip and how to prepare. A day before the trip i got a message from company about pick up point and location. We drove 1.5 h till pick up point, and then i realized i didn't pack my passport. I didn't know we will need to cross the boarder. So i didn't have my passport and was left behind the boarder. It was my mistake, but I got so sad and so disappointed that nowhere did it say that i must have a passport with me. I was looking for this trip for 5 months and my disappointed was unimaginable. Please put in reminder or additional information, that all travelers must have a passport for this trip. And moreover, the trip with the bus was exhausting and very uncomfortable, i got very terrible back pain from the seats. 8 h on a bus and only 2 h on a boat (if you have a passport lf course) doesn't not seem worth it at all. So anyone reading please take this as a reminder to take your passports so you wouldn't be disappointed like i was today.
Good morning: Dear customer, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly sorry to hear that the day was so disappointing for you, especially after looking forward to the trip for such a long time. As this excursion involves crossing a border, all travellers must carry their original valid passport or required travel document. Unfortunately, passengers who do not have the necessary documentation cannot cross the border, as this is controlled by the border authorities and is outside our control. We are sorry that this information was not clear enough for you before the trip. Your feedback is very important to us, and we will take it into account to make the passport requirement even more visible in our reminders and communication, so future travellers can avoid this situation. We also regret that you found the bus journey uncomfortable. We understand that long journeys can be tiring, and we appreciate your comments as they help us continue improving the overall experience. Once again, we are sorry that you could not fully enjoy the excursion as expected, and we thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
Comfortable tour bus, great tour guide, provides very good information, but does not talk much - which is good.
Vielen Dank für dein Feedback! 😊 Es freut uns zu hören, dass der Reisebus bequem war und der Reiseleiter gute Informationen gegeben hat. Schön zu wissen, dass sein ruhiger Stil gut ankam und die Tour angenehm gestaltet hat 🌞🚍 Wir hoffen, dich bald wieder auf einer weiteren unvergesslichen Tour mit Visitanddo.com begrüßen zu dürfen, um noch mehr von Andalusiens Schönheit und Kultur zu entdecken
We left Malaga. We stopped in Marbella for a break and to get a bite to eat. No restaurants or cafes open. No washrooms available. Most of us ended up going back to the bus where there was a super marche close and just picking up a pastry. The cable car was down for repairs and for those of us who chose the dolphin experience, it made the opportunity to visit the peak impossible. Taxis will only take you on the full tour for which there was insufficient time. I think we should have been made aware of this at time of booking as we may have changed our excursion. Having said that, our bus driver and Mica10 were fabulous.
We are very sorry for the inconvenience you experienced during your excursion. We understand how disappointing it must have been not to find any restaurants or restrooms available in Marbella and to discover that the cable car was out of service, especially for those who had planned the dolphin experience 🚌🌊 We appreciate your feedback regarding the need for clearer communication at the time of booking. Informing travelers in advance about temporary closures or service limitations would certainly help them plan and choose the best option. Your feedback will help us improve how we share important information and ensure our customers can make informed decisions. We are happy to hear that our bus driver and Mica10 provided excellent service and made the day enjoyable despite the setbacks 😊🚍 Their professionalism and friendliness are precisely what we look for on every excursion. We will review the situation and ensure that future excursions offer the best possible experience.
The trip was fairly well organized and the boat trip to see dolphins was great. We saw at least 20 dolphins. However I was shocked to realize that visit to Gibraltar doesn't actually include visit of the main thing - the Rock itself. Having never been to this place before, I didn't know it was two separate things. After the dolphins tour we didn't have enough time left to visit the Rock by our own means, so this trip was a bit of a let down.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and your honest feedback. We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed the dolphin boat trip and that you were able to see so many dolphins — spotting a large group like that is always a special moment! 🐬😊 We also appreciate your comments regarding Gibraltar and completely understand your disappointment. For first-time visitors, it can indeed be confusing that the Rock visit and the free time in Gibraltar are separate experiences, especially when time is limited after the boat activity. We’re sorry that this wasn’t clearer beforehand and that you didn’t have enough time left to visit the Rock on your own. Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we’ll review how we explain the itinerary details so future travelers can better understand the available options and plan their time accordingly. Thank you again for traveling with us and for helping us improve our experiences.
The duty-free shopping on Main Street is great for spirits and tobacco, and the currency is the Gibraltar Pound (though they take Euros and UK Pounds too). Pro-tip: walk across the runway into town rather than waiting for a bus—it’s one of the few places in the world where you can actually walk across an active airport strip!
That sounds like an amazing tip! 😄 The duty-free shopping in Gibraltar is definitely a highlight, especially for spirits and tobacco, and the convenience of being able to use Euros and UK Pounds alongside the Gibraltar Pound makes it super accessible. And you're absolutely right—walking across the active airport runway is such a unique experience! 🌍✈️ It's one of those little adventures that makes visiting Gibraltar even more memorable. Thanks for sharing this awesome pro-tip! If you're ever looking for more travel recommendations or things to do around Gibraltar or Málaga, feel free to reach out. We're here to help you make the most of your travels! 😊
We saw a lot of dolphins and there was no rush and the staff were lovely and friendly.
The trip was very good, our guide Coby, super, iced us laugh, explained many things and also took care of everyone, made us feel like a group despite not knowing each other
Muchísimas gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaste del viaje y que Covy hizo que el día fuera aún más especial. Es fantástico leer que consiguió haceros reír, explicar tantos detalles interesantes y, sobre todo, que estuvo pendiente de todos en el grupo. 😊 Uno de los objetivos de nuestros guías es precisamente crear ese ambiente cercano, donde personas que no se conocen terminan sintiéndose como parte de un mismo grupo durante la excursión. Nos encanta saber que Covy logró transmitir esa energía y hacer que la experiencia fuera tan agradable para todos. 🌍 Le haremos llegar tus palabras, seguro que le hará mucha ilusión saber que su trabajo dejó un recuerdo tan bonito. ¡Gracias por viajar con nosotros y esperamos verte muy pronto en otra aventura con Visitanddo! ✨
The organization of the ride was not optimal. The exact duration was not clearly communicated in advance. Instead of the announced 10 hours we were on the road for a total of 12 hours. The outbound journey took about 4 hours, including a short break at a gas station. A three-and-a-half hour stay in Gibraltar was announced throughout the day. In fact, before the dolphin tour we only had about 1 hour of free time and then another 1.5 hours to explore. The dolphin tour was very nice, however, the boat did not drive a fixed route, but mainly followed the dolphins. Whales were not sighted, but many dolphins. Without a separate booking of a tour to the “Rock of Gibraltar” you won’t see the monkeys. This additional service is relatively expensive. At 16:00 the return journey to Málaga began, arrival was around 20:00. The tour guide was very nice though and could always answer our questions
Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihre Erfahrungen so detailliert zu schildern. Es tut uns leid, dass die Reiseorganisation für Sie nicht optimal war und insbesondere die Gesamtdauer nicht ausreichend im Voraus kommuniziert wurde. Es ist verständlicherweise ärgerlich, wenn ein Ausflug aufgrund von Verkehr, Grenzkontrollen oder anderen äußeren Umständen länger dauert als erwartet, vor allem, wenn Sie mit einer kürzeren Reise gerechnet haben. Wir entschuldigen uns. Ihr Feedback zur verfügbaren Freizeit in Gibraltar ist uns ebenfalls sehr wichtig. Wir nehmen Ihre Anmerkungen sehr ernst und prüfen derzeit, wie wir den Zeitplan und die Reiseroute transparenter kommunizieren können. Wir freuen uns dennoch sehr, dass Ihnen die Delfinbeobachtungstour gefallen hat und Sie so viele Delfine gesehen haben; es ist immer ein besonderes Erlebnis. Wir schätzen auch Ihre lobenden Worte über unseren Reiseleiter und werden diese gerne weitergeben.
It was a good trip with a fantastic clever and fresh guide. However, there was too little time in Gibraltar before the boat trip so another time I will take a full-day trip to Gibraltar instead. The boat trip car great although it winded a lot and we therefore unfortunately did not see any dolphins.
Tusind tak for din fine anmeldelse! 😊 Det glæder os virkelig at høre, at du havde en god tur, og at guiden gjorde oplevelsen ekstra god med sit engagement og sin energi 🌟 Vi forstår godt, at tiden i Gibraltar kan føles lidt knap, især hvis man gerne vil nå det hele inden bådturen. Tak for din ærlige feedback – det hjælper os med løbende at forbedre balancen i programmet 🙌 Hvor ærgerligt, at I ikke fik set delfiner på grund af vinden – naturen kan vi desværre ikke styre 🐬🌊 Men hvor er det dejligt at høre, at selve bådturen alligevel var fantastisk! Vi håber, vi får lov til at byde dig velkommen igen – måske næste gang på en heldagstur til Gibraltar! 🌍✨
Weather was awful, originally we had gone for the dolphin watching but swapped, at considerable expense, to the Rock tour, was great fun, Gibraltar itself is a disappointment but at least you get to say you’ve been there, Monica, the guide/hostess, was really good, we will be using the company again on further trips as the day was well organised with an easy pick up location in Malaga, overall I would recommend
Thank you for your detailed review! We truly appreciate your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the weather didn’t cooperate for the dolphin watching, but it’s great to hear that you enjoyed the Rock tour, even though Gibraltar itself didn’t fully meet your expectations. We understand how important it is to have a positive experience, regardless of the conditions, and we're happy to hear that Monica was a great guide and that the day was well-organized. It’s wonderful to know that you’ll consider using our services for future trips! We’d be thrilled to welcome you again and make sure your next adventure is even better. 😊 Thank you again for your recommendation!
