    The guide was very nice and she told us a lot. I also liked that you made photo s. We ourself had not the equipment to do so.

    I’m still buzzing! Saw two whales right next to the boat. Crew was friendly and kept us safe. The ride out is a little rough so hold on tight, but it’s worth it. Would do again!

    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.

    Went with my girlfriend, got lucky with the weather. Saw a huge whale plus some dolphins. Staff were awesome but the ride back was rough and cold. Dress warm!

    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.

    Absolutely EPIC experience. We got so close I could hear the whales breathing. The crew’s energy was infectious. Bring a waterproof camera for sure.
