Good experienced crew who...

Mark_W, Feb 2026

Good experienced crew who managed to find us whales. We had no problems everything ran smoothly would recommend

Expensive for what it is...

Emma_B, Dec 2025

They forgot to pick us up, but after some frantic messages between the tour operator and viator a tuk tuk arrived to whizz us off to the port (27 mins late), once on board there was no hanging around, we left as soon as we boarded but being the last to board meant there were no upstairs seats left. We did not see whales but we were prepared for this, but absolutely no effort was put into "watching" for the whales, the crew stayed chatting to the captain, no binoculars were used and they seemed to rely solely upon another boat spotting whales and alerting them... if other boats acted like this crew I image not many whales ever get spotted. I only ate the banana as the fish/egg sandwich looked pure rank..
