Wow!! What an absolutely incredible trip. We couldn’t have wished for more from discovery or the viewing. Andrew was a fantastic guide. We came across around 10 humpback whales very early into the trip and spent time watching them feeding. They did not seem bothered by us and came up lots. A young girl had requested dolphins so we headed off in search. A few mins later we found a pod of 40 risso dolphins! I then joked and requested a blue whale (knew this was a possibility but sightings not as common) 15 mins later, the call came to say a boat had spotted 2 blue whales. We made our way over to the boat and jacket pot! We saw them! They came up about 4 times, diving for 6 mins or so each time. Incredible. A large male, as big as Andrew had seen. The boats were very respectful, didn’t follow or stay too long, allowing other boats to have a chance and not to crowd the whales. I researched this trip before leaving the UK and generally found better reviews for a smaller boat like this, more personal and also the 9am tour as you have longer. Thank you discovery for an unforgettable experience!!

From the start of the tour we saw wildlife, as we encountered sea otters when departing the harbour. Then a pair of humpbacks within 30 mins or so. Followed by a pod humpbacks feeding, where we saw tails, flipper slaps and lunge feeding (and lots of excitable, frantic fish, gulls and sea lions around them). Then a couple of pods of Risso’s dolphins, before the grand finale - 2 blue whales! The crew is were friendly and helpful, especially the wildlife guide Andrew. I would highly recommend.
