Dolphin Nursery Seaworld

[buddicle]

Both myself and my DD11 love dolphins. Anyone done the Dolphin Nursery tour, if so what did you think of it.

[johnb]

I have done it once, and thought it was an excellent experience, although not exactly a tour. You get to go to the far side of the pool - where the staff only are usually allowed. They have a few buckets of fish which you are able to feed to a couple of selected adult dolphins. The dolphins also come right to the edge and 'stand up' in the water so you can put your arms around them. There was a photographer on the opposite side of the pool.

Worth EVERY penny....NOT that its all that expensive. They only allow 10 people a day to do it so book early on-line.

We loved it and spent quite a while feeding and petting them...the ONLY downside is be prepared for cats to follow you around for a couple of days....your hands will stink of fish.....he he he...but again...HIGHLY recommended.

On the seaworld website it says $40 plus tax!

[johnb]

Actually it doesn't say 'plus tax' on the website. I think you will find that it is classed as an educational tour and is not subject to tax. Well, I didn't have to pay any.

[Rebelrebel]

Ooh might give it a go ourselves :)

[Lynda]

We did it and really loved it!:)

I went in Jan 2006, and have just checked - the price was $36 then and I didn't pay any tax.

[The-JAXX]

we'll have to take a look at this

[Rebelrebel]

I can't seem to find out what time it is at on the website, does anyone know?

[johnb]

I'm not absolutely sure, but I think it can be at different times on different days. They will tell you when you book what time it is on that day.
