A well oiled machine - pity the whales kept eluding us as we got close, but that is out of their control! The staff were warm, friendly, attentive and funny. The boat was clean. They also have impressive facilities at the wharf. My 4 and 8 year olds had a lovely time, despite the wind, thanks to the staff.

Very nice and easy going bunch! Great staff and crew! And we were in luck, did see 2 pairs of mother and calf in the bay that day!!!!

The staff were attentive, spoke to people on the boat, they offered jackets to those who were cold. Only disappointment was that we didn't see the whales closer. Also, the photo on the tour website shows a big boat but the trip is on a small boat.
