Whale of an Adventure - We saw and followed three whales for a while and had a great view from all angles of the boat. The crew were so helpful and knowledgeable. The boat was comfortable and not crowded. The future plans for the provision of drinks will be perfect.

You won't be disappointed - We had and amazing experience we seen 3 whales. It was great only having a small amount of people on the boat it was much easier to see the whales. The staff were great full of information about the whales and answered any questions. We stayed out longer than the time stated as we were having a great time and the whales were putting on such a show. So it made it hard to leave lucky we were the last for the day. I certainly recommend Adventure Rafting they won't disappoint.

Plenty of wales - From the moment you make contact with the crew you are made to feel welcome. Happy, helpful and fun. Now the whale watching. WOW. We were so lucky, saw plenty of tail slapping, small breaching then the best happens. Whilst we were floating around watching a pod from a distance another pod came within metres of us with their baby’s. That close that when they blew out their water we got covered with it. Humbling and amazing .

Whale watching. - Despite the weather being a bit windy and the sea quite rough, we had a great time and were able to see a few whales including a couple of babies. Unfortunately a couple of passengers didn’t cope very well with the swell however the crew were very kind to them.

Wow, Wow, Wow - Wow, Wow, Wow, this was an incredible experience, we seen at least 10+ Whales and a couple of dolphins. The skipper Anthony was great. Nina our host was truly amazing, her enthusiasm was contagious and her knowledge was outstanding. This was our first ever whale watching cruise and would recommend it to anybody that is thinking about doing it. Well worth the money. Thanks Nina and Anthony.

We saw whales 🙌 - This was an enjoyable morning. Staff friendly and boat felt safe. At first no whales but the guides preserved and we finally came across 3 whales. I would recommend this company.

Must see - These guys were amazing. Our kids loved the adrenaline of the speed boat on the way out and I was in love with yhe 3 calves breaching and the adult whales putting on a show. Our tour guides humour made the trip enjoyable from start to finish! Definitely recommend.

Good trip if you’re ok with seeing the whales at eye level. - The trip was ok. Didn’t see much. The boat crew were great. You don’t want to go on such a small boat if you get sick. You also can’t see the whales as much from that height. If you’re on a bigger boat you can look over and at least see their size. You also need to stop the boat to go to the toilet. No tea of coffee can be served.

Bad Business - If you're on a cruise ship, do not book this tour. This port often has difficult weather, making the docking or tendering process difficult. We were unable to stop at this port and this tour company did not refund us our money, despite the fact that the cruise ship could not stop. There is only one way to stop unethical companies, and that is not to do business with them.
