Hi, so I did the tour with a friend and it was both our first time seeing whales. It took us more or less 1h to see the first whale (in total we saw 3) and I really liked how natural it was: just the crew (and the passengers) searching the horizon, even though the captain knew where to go to have higher chances. Also loved how Siena (hope I wrote her name correctly) kep offering data regarding whales through the micro and in general how helpful the crew was.

Fantastic ride, great tour guide. She was fantastic and super genuine. A real whale nerd. The front desk staff however the guy was a complete dick. We needed a restroom after the boat, didn't seem appropriate to use the boat one after it was docked, and he told us "read the sign" rather than just..... tell us to go across the street.

We had a delightful and very knowledgeable marine biologist. She gave us s substantial information on the behaviors and habits of the whales and dolphins. We learned about the safety practices that f the four boats that protect the various species we were hoping to see. We were particularly fortunate that we were about to watch the activities of 3 humpback whales, 1 minke whale and a pod of dolphins. It was a thoroughly fantastic adventure and a wonderful learning about these majestic ocean animals. Thank you so much for this experience!
