    WOW, just wow. My boyfriend and I are still buzzing. We got sooooo close to a mother and baby whale. The guide knew their stuff and was super patient with everyone’s questions. It was cold but we layered up. Worth every penny.

    Booked for a group of friends. The boat ride out was a thrill, but a couple of us got a bit queasy. Whale sightings were worth it though—so close! Staff were patient with us and gave good tips. The boat was packed but everyone got a good view.

    Literally one of the best tours I’ve ever done. Saw a big ol’ whale fluke only 10 meters from us. The suits kept us dry, but I wish I’d worn thicker socks. Crew was so friendly—shoutout to our guide who answered all my weird biology questions. 10/10!

    Took my parents (in their 60s) and teenage nephew. Everyone LOVED it, even though my mom doesn’t usually like boats. We all laughed about the suits—they’re kinda huge but warm! Saw 2 whales together and loads of birds. Guide was super knowledgeable and cracked a few jokes. Would def recommend for families.

    The guides were AMAZING, full of energy and whale facts. Our group was all adults and we had a blast. They gave us goggles which helped with the spray. Saw at least three whales and a bunch of puffins. Bring a camera but make sure it’s waterproof.

    Reservation was fast, staff explained everything well. The boat is a little hard to get in if you’ve got bad knees. Once on the water though, whales everywhere! Bring layers, it gets chilly, even in August. Wish we had more time with the whales, but overall v good.

    Super cool experience! Got cold on the way out but the suits helped. The ride was fast and exciting, whales were a bit shy at first but then two popped up right by us. Staff was friendly but the group was a bit big for my taste. Still glad we went.

    Went with friends—total adventure! Whales were everywhere and the captain got us close without bothering them. The ride out was a bit wild but that added to the fun. Bring a hat, wind is no joke out there.
