Overpriced in my opinion

Nadine_P, Dec 2023
2h trip to see seals and if you get lucky, more marine life The employees don’t seem very motivated and seem to avoid interaction Not really worth it - there are other places where you can get the same for less than half of the price Would not do it again

Very informative tour. Attentive staff
