Amazing experience ❤️

We were chasing whales until we found a mother and a baby. Came close enough to clearly see the creatures but not too close so we don't scare them. Thank you for your amazing work, crew!

Total Waste of Time & Money

Saw maybe three whales about 200 meters away, they were visible for about three seconds. Boat was packed, not allowed to go upstairs for half the cruise. Uncomfortable, regrettable experience.

Whale watching experience

The staff are lovely and welcoming, and we saw a whale with her calf which was a special experience I wouldn’t call this a premium experience, “morning tea” is a black tea/watery Hot chocolate in a take away cup and a arnots biscuit in plastic. Also when you do see the whale there is no commentary. It was fine, but the use of the word luxury and premium is stretch of the imagination
