We had a brilliant morning with Dave who is extremely knowledgeable and very personable. Highly recommended.
Dave pulled out all of the stops to enable us to see Whales. He was also incredibly informative and passionate and coped with all of our questions!
Awesome few hours with Dave, who’s passion and knowledge of the Whales is second to none. A ‘must do’ in Hermanus.
Those who book this activity do everything right. Dave is a walking lexicon and explains with great love everything you need to know about these great animals. Questions are welcome. It was a very nice afternoon with great sightings.
