Fabulous day! Our guide and all of the staff we talked to were very friendly and knowledgeable. We had heard others had gone on tours (not with this group) and never got to see whales., so we knew that was a possibility. This trip was a success! We saw a momma and her calf…Finn whales. The boat captain let us sit and watch them for awhile. It was beautiful! Then the guide got a glimpse of a humpback whale diving down. The captain let us wait the 15-20 min for the whale to come back up. We got great pics of the whale coming back up and the awesome tail fin as it dived back down. It was amazing! We saw other seaside too…seals, dolphins. It was a cold day, but it was totally worth freezing our butts off on the top deck for 4 hours.

EXCELLENT day all around. It would be very difficult to find a better group than the Cape Ann company. This trip was a make-up date that was cancelled last year. The Captain and Crew are very pleasant and informative. Other passengers included the regulars (mentioned to be on their 100th adventure), the folks from Ohio, the students from Groton, CT on class trip, one other guy besides myself that wore shorts, the volunteer photographer that's been taking/posting pictures for over 10 years, my driver and his lovely wife (who booked a great place to eat (at the wrong time since I thought the tour was only 1 1/2 hours - actually more than 4)), my wife who has put up with me for more than 40 years and OH YEAH - WE SAW WHALES!!!!
