⸻
📸 Individual Dolphin Photo Session
The individual experience is designed for one guest who wants a personal photo session with a dolphin.
During the session, you’ll enter the pool and interact with the dolphin while the professional photographer captures different moments.
The official Dolphin World FAQ currently describes the individual photo session as a package of 10 digital photos inside the pool. Guests also interact with the dolphin during the session.
The session can include:
- 🐬 Meeting the dolphin
- 🤗 Hugging the dolphin
- 💋 Kissing the dolphin
- 💃 Dancing with the dolphin

👨👩👧👦 Family Dolphin Photo Session
Traveling with your family?
Dolphin World also offers a dedicated Family Photo Session.
The session begins with individual photographs of family members, followed by photographs of the entire family together with the dolphin.
The official program states that the family session includes approximately 15 digital photos, with an exclusive dolphin and instructor for the program.
Family Session Includes:
- Individual family photographs
- Group family photographs
- Dolphin interaction
- Exclusive dolphin and instructor
- Approximately 15 digital photos
- Swimming equipment according to the facility’s program
This is especially suitable for families who want a shared memory rather than separate individual photographs.
⸻
🚐 Hotel Pickup from Hurghada
Your Dolphin Photo Experience can begin with hotel pickup.
Dolphin World is located in Makadi Bay beside Mini Egypt, and the facility offers transfer services from the Hurghada area.
Muji Tour can arrange the transfer according to your hotel location and selected package.
The exact pickup time is confirmed before the trip.
⸻
🐬 Arrival at Dolphin World
Upon arrival, you’ll check in and prepare for your photo session.
If your booking is scheduled alongside the Dolphin Show, the facility’s current schedule starts the show at 10:30 AM, while photo and swimming sessions are separately scheduled and should be booked in advance.
For the Muji Tour product, the exact schedule will depend on the booked photo session.
⸻
📸 The Professional Photo Session
Once it’s time for your session, you’ll change into the provided swimming equipment and enter the dolphin pool.
The professional photographer captures the interaction while the trainer guides the dolphin and explains how to position yourself safely.
The goal is to capture a variety of natural moments rather than simply taking one photograph.
Depending on the session, these can include:
- Standing or sitting with the dolphin
- Hugging
- Kissing
- Dancing
- Interaction with the dolphin
- Family group photographs
The exact interaction depends on the trainer’s instructions and the dolphin’s behavior.
⸻
🩱 Equipment Provided
Dolphin World states that swimming/photo sessions include basic equipment such as:
- Swimming suit / diving suit
- Towel
- Life vest where applicable
The individual photo-session information specifically confirms free diving suit and towel, while the family photo session includes swimsuit, towel and life vest for each participant.
⸻
📱 Why You Can’t Use Your Phone
Mobile phones are not allowed during the dolphin swimming or photo session.
This allows the professional photographer and trainer to control the session safely and focus on the interaction.
Professional photographs are provided as a separate service/package.
You can, of course, use your phone before and after the session in the permitted areas.
⸻
📷 Digital Photos
The exact number of photographs depends on the selected option.
Individual Photo Session
Approximately 10 digital photos according to the current official FAQ.
Family Photo Session
Approximately 15 digital photos according to the current official program.
Dolphin World also offers additional photography packages connected with swimming experiences.
⸻
🚐 Return to Hotel
After completing the photography session and changing clothes, your transfer returns you to your hotel.
The exact total duration depends on the selected photo package and transfer schedule.
For comparison, Dolphin World’s current dedicated Dolphin Photos Package is advertised as approximately 3 hours, including the 60-minute Dolphin Show, lunch, camel activity, photo session and transfers.
For Muji Tour, we should not advertise those additional activities unless they are actually included in your final package.
