The tour was a great experience despite the horrible weather! Nice and very helpful staff! The explanations were very comprehensive and the atmosphere was great.

We went with our big children and we had a fantastic experience. Saw more whales than we could have hoped for. We also got to see dolphins in a herd. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide.

All in all, we had a great tour. Checking in on site was super easy and the tour started on time. On board, two charming and helpful colleagues (+ captain) led us to an incredible spectacle (unless your favorite animal is anchovies, then probably not...). Not only did we see more than a dozen whales, but also two species of dolphins, many sea lions and countless birds enjoying a feast. We were very close, but the animals were clearly unimpressed, and we were proactively told a lot of interesting things about the marine world. It was a privilege to be able to observe so many animals for so long. Absolutely recommend this (relatively somewhat longer) tour!
