Customer Reviews

It was a lovely experience, the boat was big and comfortable enough and the skipper was very friendly and helpful. However we were a bit disappointed that there were no dolphins but you are at least guaranteed to see seals which were fun and interesting. Just note if you intend to see dolphins, there's a good chance you will but sometimes you will be unlucky. It's even more rare to come across a whale so don't go in with such expectations. - Michael


Great excursion! Our guides were fantastic at spotting the whales and dolphins. Small group with plenty of sightings. Would definitely recommend. - Sara


Great trip, well organised. Very informative guide. We're lucky enough to see a humpback whale and her baby, although it was the end of the season! - Jane


The team was friendly and helpful, even when a more challenging customer required more attention. The trip went without problems and was an experience. We saw a few Bryde's whales but didn't get too close, and then the ever-present seals at Robberg peninsula. All considered, a worthwhile event. - Reaan
