This tour was fantastic!! The crew was super friendly and the guide on the microphone was extremely knowledgeable. We saw a few whales and they were so close to the boat! Definitely bring a sweatshirt, it was a 95 degree day but was very chilly once the boat was moving. Highly recommend, this trip was amazing!

We loved the excursion, saw several whales and even two kinds of dolphins! The staff and guides were fantastic, very knowledgeable and shared lots of great info about the species as well as about the individual animals. The captain always moved the boat so both sides could see the whales so no need to rush the sides to try to get a glimpse. Only thing I'd say is to get there EARLY. We were a group of 8, arrived 30 minutes early and there was only one seating area left that would accommodate us together that wasn't indoors. The shop at the end has lots of cute souvenirs and we loved exploring Glouster after the tour as well. Definitely would do again!

Found a great deal on GroupOn and booked the trip a month in advance. It happened to be a hot August day and being out on the water was very comfortable. The crew was great and provided a lot of information about the whales. We saw a lot of whales on the trip, including two different pairs of mom & calf.
