1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
The whole experience was amazing. Everything was well organised and clear information on what to expect. We were extremely lucky with what we could see, blue, humpback and fin whales, common and bottlenose dolphins, turtles. Stunning scenery, just being out on the boat was a fantastic experience. Lovely to meet up with everyone for dinner. Very helpful with tips for our shore day. Overall just fantastic.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Don’t underestimate the elements out at sea! Dress warmly, so you can enjoy the experience. When the sea is a little rough it can be quite physical on the boat, that didn’t impact our enjoyment, but it could help to manage expectations of anyone thinking of the trip.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Absolutely! It felt great to see the whales with a team that have a complete respect for the creatures and the environment. So knowledgeable and passionate. Also the set-up of the trip provided support for local businesses. Knowing we were indirectly supporting research efforts was a huge bonus for us.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
What an experience!! Cannot recommend enough. Lisa and the team took fantastic care of us. Sharing their knowledge and passion was inspiring. We will never forget seeing the amazing creatures of the sea.Jeremy Thomas review 27 May 2025
