Brad was absolutely amazing! We are SOOOO glad we chose this excursion! Brad picked us up right at the port dock. It was a private tour with our group of five. We have done several whale tours but always on larger boats - it was totally different on Brad's small boat - phenomenal! We recommend this tour with 10 stars out of 5! 😁
