Great trip with expert guides - Great trip - Johannes and his team are very knowledgeable which meant we got to see a number of whales and also learnt a lot about the habits of the Southern Right Whales.

Great experience - highly recommend tour company ! - So happy that we booked out tour with this company. Great experience - of course there are never any guarantees of what you see but I got the feeling they knew exactly what they were doing and where to go. We got the best sights of whales right next to the boat, swiming under and around us. Small boat and around only 20 passengers so never felt crowded or too much. Better than expected and highly recommended company to use :-))

Amazing experience! - Had a fantastic morning trip and were so lucky to see some whales so close. The mothers and calves stayed near the boat for some time so we got to see a fair amount of activity. Was a highlight of the holiday!!

Once in a lifetime experience! - We saw the whales close up in their natural habitat and this was amazing
The skipper and guide were patient and allowed us to get as many pictures as we needed always keeping us aware of the whales behaviour and reactions to us

Really fantastic - Whale watching from whole bay South Africa. It was fantastic. All of them are on the boofmd looking for whales. And yes, we found them. The crew were very friendly. Told super much about the whales and all the life in the bay.

Special experience - Very good organized and they also respected the space to the whales.
We were happy and saw one baby so close, because it came by itself to the boat. It was a very special experience for me. I would definitely go again.

Brilliant way to see the whales and get some really interesting knowledge about the sealife and area - Absolutely lovely trip out to see the whales - the trip lasted about 2 hours, was fairly priced, and our skipper was extremely knowledgeable and kept us entertained with lots of interesting snippets about the sea life interspersed with classic SA humour. The boat although busy, wasn't too crowded. There were snacks on board and all in all it was a thoroughly lovely experience. Would suit families, couples or friend groups.
