High recommend whale watching place - There are many whale watching places in Sri Lanka, but you are the best. I can say from my experience. I was not treated unfairly in any way. It was very good. The whales are shown very well. You make a great effort to show the whales. I respect you for that too.

Fun whale watching with friends! - Good experience while in Sri Lanka. With polite and professional staff on board, we were in the waters till every one of us was able to spot the whale. They took care of F&B, gave us bags in case we threw up, and carried medication including those for sea sickness.

Amazing journey on the sea for Spot whales - It was an amazing journey with Chaminda Whale Watching boat safari, I was lucky enough to spot 1 fin whale and plenty of dolphins, they have well organised the trip, once it comes to service the staff who was on board they were really helpful and cooperative with the passengers. Highly recommend. Thanks them for given me wonderful clicks on the sea. ⛵

Good cruise and good value but safety instructions poor. - The time given by Viator when booking (0700) did not correspond to the time given by the company (told to be there by 0615 for an 0645 departure though we were sailing by 0640. No security instructions given on board as to eg where life jackets were to be found so rather disconcerting. Food provided as stated except for the tea or coffee (though that would have been very difficult to drink). Only one toilet for men and women so long queues. Crew really did make an attempt to see a whale as cruise was scheduled for 3-4 hours and we were out for 7 hours. So maybe best not to plan anything else in case that happens. Crew did tell passengers if anything seen on the right side then only passengers on the left should stand up (and vice versa). But instructions only in English and perhaps singala but as many people spoke neither language it had no effect and many stood up. So not great for safety. So on safety grounds I wouldn’t recommend but cannot vouch for other companies.

skip this company - We were supposed to be picked up from our hotel, but no one showed up at 6:20 a.m. We had to arrange our own taxi and only just made it on board in time. The boat was overcrowded and there were no seats available, even though they said they wouldn't let too many people on board for the whales. The only positive thing was that the staff on board were friendly. A two-hour boat trip there and back just to see a whale in the distance. They'd been saying that all week... Of course, the staff can't do anything about this. We later sent a message asking what they thought about us not being picked up. Unfortunately, no response (not surprisingly). I don't recommend this company at all. A waste of money. It's the first time I've ever written a bad review.
