Group予約確認済み2026年6月5/5We went on the tour with our mothers (aged 70 and 76). It was a fantastic experience for us and them, even at that age. A pod of dolphins swam alongside our boat. In addition, a minke whale surfaced nearby several times, and we also spotted a humpback whale (its tail fluke was truly impressive). We were also able to watch puffins frolicking on the water from time to time. The crew was very friendly and always proactive.AAmy C
