Great tour! The guide was... - Great tour! The guide was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. The boat was comfortable and equipped with a bathroom. Seeing Chicken the whale was absolutely amazing. Only trouble we had was briefly being unsure where to meet the boat.

Close Encounters - An excellent trip, the skipper knew exactly where to find the whales and was able to quietly manoeuvre to get really close. We had constant sightings for almost 2 hours with one whale circling and passing under our boat. Very exciting. Perfect for cruise ship passengers as just a short walk from cruise terminal

Whale watching - Great whale watching trip! The tour guide is very knowledgeable and spent much time explaining all about the whales and their habitat. The captain was very good at maneuvering the boat to get numerous views of the whale.

Great value - This was just what we wanted. We saw whales and our guide was very well informed. The boat was comfortable and clean. The price was far less expensive than our ship’s included tour and was equivalent in content.

Great day in a beautiful Fjord - Although it was not a very nice day weather-wise, the captain and guide worked extremely hard to find us some whales. The guide was very knowledgeable and the Captain kept us safe even thought it was a rough ride back to port

Whale watching cancelled - It didn’t happen. The boat hit the dock as it was arriving to pick us up and was no longer sea worthy. So disappointed as the weather is gorgeous. Awaiting refund.
