Amazing full-day adventure - We had a memorable day in Maldives with many interesting experiences with this tour. The Dream Adventure team is very friendly and enthusiastic. They were always ready to help us take photos, help us carry our luggage on and off the boat since we were going to Himmafushi Island after the end of the tour, and they took great videos of us while snorkerling. During this tour, we saw dolphins (especially I saw a cute baby dolphin jumping out of the water 😍), walked and took photos at the sandbank, had a delicious lunch at Himmafushi, and snorkeled to see colorful fish and stingrays. Highly recommend this tour!!!

Boat trip in the Maldives January 2025 - This tour was very good! We were picked up at our hotel and brought to the dock where we got on the boat for the short ride to Himmafushi, a local island where we had lunch. We had the opportunity to swim and or snorkel with manta rays and see beautiful fish. Short underwater videos were made for us by some of the crew. We also stopped at a sandbar near the island. The weather in January 2025 was great. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour!

Awesome Himmafushi adventures - Awesome excursions. We did 2 point snorkelling trip, dolphin watching, sandbanks tour . He also arranged day visit to a local resort. We were a big group with an age range of 8 to 65 and they looked after us very well and customised everything to suit our needs. The 2 point snorkelling was more suitable for older teens but my 8 year old was well looked after.

Shark snorkeling... Highly recommended - About 30 mins from Hulumale by speedboat. Great experience. Sharks, rays and thousands of colorful fish within a few feet. Very safe. Affordable for the price and about 2.5 hours in all. Siraj is a great guide. He took some videos that he shared so memories were captured.

Great no-frills tour for younger adults - Older local boat takes you to a great snorkel area, cool sand bar to walk around in waste deep turquoise water. We saw dolphins swimming alongside the boat. Lunch was local food on an island. Staff were awesome. Now, the downside. This excursion is best for younger adults. Very challenging getting back in boat after snorkeling. Not enough equipment for everyone onboard, and some of the breathing tubes on snorkels were black inside (not clean). So bad I wouldn't use one. They were not very organized. They had guests arrive late after we left dock - and we returned to get them. (Tour information said not to be late, this made the entire boat of on-time guests experience 1/2 hour delay.) Then we returned to the dock a 2nd time after discovering people on board who were not on this tour. They did not scan our tickets or have an efficient way to know who should be on the tour. We prepaid for transport from cruise ship to location of tour boat. We were told to meet driver at Presidential Jetty, but they went to Jetty 2. Had to call to find us. Return taxi ride also confusing. They just said we needed to wait for their car, but not where. There were 4 older adults who had to squeeze into a taxi for 3. So uncomfortable we asked to get out before we arrived at our destination. Again, younger, smaller adults, would have been fine. If you are a go with the flow kind of person, dont mind older boats, equipment & delays and you are relatively fit . . . this tour is a great value & they take your to awesome locations.

not a good tour for english only speakers, unless they make significant changes - poorly organized. we got picked up ok but when we arrived at the place to get on the boat, there was no boat and no one to tell us what to do. we waited and about 30 people showed up. some had suitcases and we thought they were going someplace. eventually the boat arrived and the 30 people started boarding and someone came to us to tell us to board. we went to a place to dive that was excellent with many fish and manta rays and moray eels. the ladder to get back in the boat was close to terrible. it was made of metal tubes that were painful to climb and the ladder was not very long to help climb up into the boat. then we went to an island to eat and that was ok. then we went to a place to swim and walk to a sand bar for picture taking. unfortunately, no one explained to us english speakers what what happening. also we needed to get back to shore to catch our cruise ship. fortunately, a high-speed boat came to pick us up but that was not explained to us until the boat arrived. we didn't get to see the dolphins or get to the sand bar. it was poorly organized and not adequately staffed.

A nightmare Maldives Adventure tour - This was the worst experience we had on Maldives Adventure Trip. The description of tour was nothing that we got, the boat Was old and overcrowded with young children and adults who could not swim, we were not able to snorkel due to the chaos on this boat. it was extremely unsafe they timing was not what was promised as we needed to go back to our cruise ship. The tour company charged us $80 to get a speed boat to get us back so we did not miss our ship departure. Regret ever booking with this company!!
