Lovina Dolphin Tour — Local services in Pulau Bali

ANIMAL ABUSE AND CRUELTY! Do not book this or any other dolphin tour in lovina. What first looked very scenic and nice turned into the worst experience we had on our holiday.

After a hour there were 50 other ones. But the experience is still amazing and you can also swim with them. Absolutely recommended! -1 Star because of the crowding with the...
