RESEÑAS DE VIAJEROS

It’s very cold out at sea even on a ‘warm’ day so wear plenty of layers. We were very lucky to see humpback whales and a minke whale so the trip was a success. Liked that the crew very promptly shared professional photos after the trip. It means you don’t have to rely on your mobile phone to capture the action and can enjoy being in the moment. Also good commentary on marine life facts.

¡Las palabras no pueden describir lo que sentimos cuando tuvimos los avistamientos! Vimos una ballena jorobada y 2 manadas de delfines, ¡realmente una experiencia única en la vida! El tour estuvo perfectamente cronometrado y bien organizado. Nuestro guía, Pedro, nos mantuvo entretenidos con su humor y sus comentarios informativos. El tour dura aproximadamente 3 horas: unos 45 minutos a una hora para llegar al lugar, alrededor de una hora observando la fauna, y otra hora para regresar al puerto.

Un viaje increíble. El equipo estaba muy bien informado y claramente se preocupaba por las ballenas hasta el punto de que las habían nombrado y podían reconocerlas. No solo eso, sino que fueron excelentes para encontrar las ballenas; encontramos dos minke y también una jorobada, de la cual tuvimos unas vistas geniales desde una distancia cercana pero segura. ¡Una experiencia brillante de principio a fin!
de Helen W
Increíble tour, el primer viaje fue cancelado debido al mal tiempo, pero el equipo fue genial ayudándonos a reprogramarlo y ¡valió muchísimo la pena! El guía fue fabuloso, con un gran avistamiento tanto de ballenas jorobadas como de minke. Rodrigo fue muy conocedor, servicial y divertido. ¡Una combinación excelente! ¡Lo recomendaría sin duda!
de Zoe F
¡Este viaje superó nuestras expectativas! Vimos delfines, marsopas ¡y ballenas! ¡Ballenas jorobadas! El equipo fue fantástico, su energía y entusiasmo eran contagiosos y hicieron que fuera una experiencia relajante, informativa y maravillosa. ¡Nos sentimos tan privilegiados!
de Jonathan H
Really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend. Great guide who was very informative and it was great to see the respect for the whales this company has. Make sure you wear layers!! It’s freezing out on the ocean but they have cover suits you can borrow and an onboard cafe. Would definitely do again
