We celebrated my 40th birthday with friends on Dover Sea Safari and it was absolutely epic from start to finish. The whole experience was exciting, fun and really well organised. Craig and Max were both fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable and brilliant at making everyone feel welcome and safe while still keeping it loads of fun. Craig shared lots of really interesting historical information about Dover and the surrounding coastline, which made the trip even more special, while Max told us all about the seals we spotted along the way. We were also lucky enough to see ducks and ducklings on the water, and the scenery was absolutely stunning throughout. Everyone came away smiling and talking about what an incredible experience it was. Such a memorable and unique way to celebrate my 40th birthday, I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for something fun and unforgettable. Thank you for an amazing day!

We had a blast on our Goodwin Sands trip, led by Lauren, Paul & Craig. Good communications all the way through the build up, high safety standards, and a fun, welcoming and professional crew. The boat trip to the sands was enjoyable, and the sands themselves are surreal. A mini island paradise out at sea, great for exploring in a totally unique setting. Loads of seals around, too! A very positive experience that I would recommend to anyone, thank you.

Loved this. We had a great time on this tour with Craig. He was very informative, professional and friendly. The tour was well timed. Not too long or short and you get great views of the cliffs and the seals in the nature reserve. £50 per person is reasonable for the experience. I liked the bits of history he told us along the way. What would make the tour even better if he had a microphone and we had ear pieces so they could relay even more history of the cliffs and surrounding area.
