It was my partner's birthday present from myself. He loved the whole experience and got to see two whales and a pod of dolphins. One happy man , thank you. I unfortunately got seasick, which was a shame. I did get to see and take photos of the whales. A great trip, the weather was great, considering the bad weather we have had I er the last week. The staff were brilliant, even help with cold cloths and sick bags for me and others that were sick on the trip. Highly recommend to anyone considering going. 😁

I'm not a boat person, but felt quite at ease on the whale boat. The commentator was very informative.
We didn't get to see a whale but with the 80% back , I was more than happy just seeing dolphins, albatross and sealions frolicking. It was very easy to book online through Headout and they were very accommodating arranging the refund as well.

A great experience for our family. First time in a helicopter and first time seeing humpbackwhales. Pilot Kel was calm and nice, a good ambassador for a heli flight whale Safari.

Had an awesome time would love to go again especially if it meant seeing dolphins! But it was fun seeing the seals in the water and the views! Would recommend 🙂

Jude our driver and tour guide was excellent. The Boat Crew was wonderful, boat was clean and we were successful in finding the magnificent Sperm whale, Moby. We also encountered a lot of Duskies. A wonderful time spent on the ocean!!

I had a wonderful day, we could see a lots of dolphins, seals and an impressive sperm whale. And the landscape is also really beautiful. Pete was an excellent guide. He was funny and we learned a lot.
