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.

    Exactly as expected with Dolphin interactions in a pen just offshore. You get to touch, kiss, hug do be pulled in the water. In a group you get about 5mins each in reality. The place (Dolphins Lodge) was clean and tidy. My kids loved it. Only slightly let down by not being allowed to use DSLR/mirrorless cameras. iPhone iPad are ok. You expect to be fleeced as a tourist but I would have happily paid for their official photos if I was allowed to use my camera as well.

    We had a tour of bali yesterday with Wayan Badunk and he was fantastic, very knowledgeable and when the weather didn't play ball he was able to to move our schedule so that we could make the most of the day. Highly recommend!

    We were really impressed to see how the handler Lucke was gentle, respectful and understanding towards the dolphins. The atmosphere was cheerful and child friendly. We appreciated that hey were clear regarding safety rules for their animals- washing hands, showering, no jewellery, interaction norns, etc. The experience was exactly as described on the website. They let you take your phone to click pictures- which is pretty flexible. There's also a photographer on site. Fresh towels are provided. Staff are courteous and welcoming. Would give them 5 /5 if we got more information about their conservation efforts.

    During a recent stay, we tried one of the Dolphin Tour companies and went out early from Lovina to see the Dolphins. It was like whacky races with 46 other boats all clamouring to see the Dolphins and the smell of outboard engine fuel drifting above the water. a waste of money and a forgettable experience on this occasion.
    Not to be deterred, we found Putu of SaraswatLovinaDolphin.com Putu speaks good english and we went out with him on two occasions. The first time we started later around 9am and saw huge numbers of Dolphin with only 8 other boats around, so a much more peaceful and pleasurable experience. The second time we left even later at 10am and had the dolphins to ourselves. Put was excellent, highly recommended over the main Dolphin tour operators

    We were invited to go around but we didn't feel bored at all, because when we visited several tourist attractions we were presented with cool views and tour guides as well as aesthetic places of course. Highly recommended for those of you who want to travel to Bali with them, just like me

    Only for the ones who accept that the dolphins are kept in enclosures... it was a great experience. You get close to the dolphins and you have sufficient time with them. The trainers were very friendly, took well care of the dolphins and explained us well how to touch or swim with them. Not to compare with places like sea world or elsewhere. There were also some stingrays and sharks where we could enter their pools and experience them as well. The tour was well organized and not crowded. We were allowed to take pictures by ourself. The pictures taken by the lodge team were offered on USB stick for only 35€. Overall it worth every cent!

    Disgusting industry and if you support this you are too. Dolphins are exploited to serve as entertainment. 10 minutes of ignorant bliss for you and a lifetime of misery for them.

    Mr Panjik ( Kadek Putrayasa) was our driver in Bali for 1 week and we visited the main famous spots but also some other very nice places he suggested us, discovering local activities and tradition. We DID appreciate he was able to understand our way to visit a country and our likings. Timetable was always respected and he was professional and kind. We will suggest him to friends coming to Bali

    We had an amazing honeymoon in Bali, thanks to our incredible tour guide, Edy! His knowledge of the island’s rich culture and hidden gems made our trip unforgettable. From breathtaking beaches to stunning temples, every experience was tailored to our interests. Edy’s friendly demeanor and passion for Bali truly enhanced our journey, ensuring we felt welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. He went above and beyond, recommending local restaurants and activities that we absolutely loved. If you're looking for a memorable tour, we highly recommend Edy! Thank you for making our honeymoon so special!
