    Unfortunately we did not take this Tour and FORTUNATELY, they cancelled due to weather so we were given a refund. I'm sure it's a great Tour but we searched by CRUISE PORT and this is no where near it although it does seem to say that the Tour is in Akureyri, Iceland. If you're in Husavik, an hour away, then it may be a good Tour to take but NOT for Cruise Passengers. Luckily we found a Tour in Akureyri, where we actually were, and had a good time.

    We had a nice and great trip, lucky with the weather (sunny and low wind). Compliments to our guide, a marine biologist who gave nice insight and was connected to the group

    Loved our trip on this boat and were lucky to see 2 different whales. The very sunny weather helped make it extra special. Our guide Martha was incredibly knowledgeable about whales. Would definitely recommend.

    It was surely an experience if you haven’t been on a boat. The captain of the boat and the guide were good. But the whale watching part was underwhelming. All we saw were a few humps and a couple of tails.
