“Whale Watching as It Should Be”

Absolutely amazing whale watching experience! 🐋 I loved every minute of it. The crew was not only friendly and professional but also deeply respectful of the whales and the ocean. Unlike some other a**holes who break the law and let people snorkel near the animals (which disturbs them), this company followed all the rules and kept a proper distance. You could really feel their love and respect for nature. It was a truly ethical and unforgettable experience — I’d recommend it 100%!
Highly recommended

The guide was very knowledgeable about naval biology. He knew so much about the animals and was happy to share his knowledge with us. All in all, he was a mixture of an actor (he told interesting and captivating) and university professor (in terms of his knowledge), which I think is ideal for a guide. We had seen a group of sperm whales, but also dolphins and - while snorkeling (which I really recommend) - also a ... Mura eel! That was great. The whole morning was great. It is problematic to do whale watching in Mauritius because the whales are very crowded and hunted by the providers and tourists. But this provider is characterized by a lot of empathy towards the whales and cares about their welfare. So - if whale watching in Mauritius, then here.
Wouldnt go again

Trip ended 45mins before it was supposed to end. On the way back from the whale watching, they just kept going in the direction of the beach where the boats were at. And After 20mins of trying to find dolphins on the way back, they didnt gave us any info, just went back to port 45mins earlier. Also the whale watching was kind of macabre, 10+ boats chasing one whale and circling it in. Wasnt fun for us, nor the whales.

We had some reservations at first, as there were very few reviews, but booked the tour anyway – and were not disappointed! Directly after booking we received a confirmation via WhatsApp, which was very straightforward. It was planned to start at 7:00 a.m., in fact it started at 7:30 a.m. Overall we were on the water for about two and a half hours and were offered a drink. After about 30 minutes we saw the first whales – a really impressive experience! Later, even a dolphin appeared. The tour was really great overall and the crew very friendly. The only small criticism: For our taste, the ride should have been a little longer. And a snorkel stop was unfortunately not included. Important: Definitely bring waterproof clothing, as the high swell caused water to come on board. Nevertheless, absolutely recommended for anyone who wants to watch whales!
Amazing experience

We were greeted by friendly tour staff. The boat left on time. We boat was fast so got us out to the whales quickly. The crew were very knowledgeable and humorous. Seeing the magnificent sperm whales up close was worth every rupee. Wonderful experience.

Except there were no drinks, everything was as described. Nice captain and plenty of whale and dolphin encounters. However, it is not a pretty sight overall as the animals are hunted, although this provider was still the most humane. I probably just went into this activity too naively. If this hustle and bustle doesn't bother you, you'll be totally satisfied here. And it is important to know that the local contact person is Mr. Kush and the boat Voctory.
Experience to remember!

We had a great experience! A dream has come true for us. At 07:00 we were expected at the Flic en Flac beach. When we came on board and had our life jackets on, we went out to sea. First we saw a group of dolphins, being able to look at them extensively and eventually we went further out to sea and and soon we saw the fantastic whales. We were back around 10:30. It was an experience to remember! And thanks to you! Highly recommended. Thanks for everything!
