Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Enjoyed it and was close to where I lived so very convenient and we seemed to be first on the reef as it didn’t take as long to get there weather was great which also makes it or breaks it

I want to express my gratitude for the amazing experience we had with Dolphin Wild. My companion Sonya was quite nervous about snorkeling in the ocean, but the staff made sure that she felt safe and comfortable throughout the trip. They were all very friendly and professional.
The marketing material mentioned that Dolphin Wild is a family run business, and we found that to be true. The atmosphere on board was warm and welcoming, and we could see that some of the crew members had their own families with them. Even the captain had a child on his hip as he navigated the stairwell at anchor
The crew always put safety first, but they did so in a way that didn't detract from our enjoyment of the day. We had a truly memorable time, and we owe a special thanks to Captain Cook for his excellent boat handling skills as it made sure Sonya felt at ease, and we both had an unforgettable day.
Thank you so much, Dolphin Wild!
Sincerely,
Russell James

This school holidays we decided to stay at home and look for day activities close to home. As a long-time local to the Moreton Bay area, I have never been to Moreton Island (Muulgumpin) and what a way to experience it for the first time!
The crew are amazing, friendly and personable. The organisation and set up of this cruise was outstanding. From the 1 hour guided snorkelling tour through the Tangalooma Wrecks, food provided (morning/afternoon tea and lunch), free swimming time on the island and an eco tour that presents interesting facts along with the chance to spot dolphins, dugongs, whales, sea turtles and other wildlife.
Thank you Dolphin Wild Island Cruises, for such a wonderful day creating special memories with our family.

Hello, I'm wondering how accessible the boat is for elderly people? e.g. getting on and off the boat, moving around, sitting where they can see the action, toilets etc? thanks

Hi we have elderly people on our vessel all the time. They need to be able to board the vessel by 3 steps. Once in the saloon it is comfortable with lounges & air conditioning. If mobility is an issue they normally can't get down into the tender vessel or do some of the activities. Alot of people like to just relax.
Due to the design of the vessel & doorways, we cannot accommodate wheelchairs on the vessel.

Hi, I was curious if you go to where they feed the dolphins?

Brisbane, Australia2 contributions
Hi, the only place permitted to feed the dolphins is the Tangalooma Resort. Our cruise goes past the resort, but we do not go into the resort. Our Moreton bay dolphins swim around our boat on our cruise. Check out our FB page for pictures Dolphin Wild Island Cruises.
