5.00Amazing experience! Absolutely loved it, our crew the very best and the whales; oh my god!! We tracked and hung with at least 5 or 6 whales for the duration! And so much action, spouting, diving, flapping, slapping, vocal and breaching!! And Viatour makes it so easy from the start to finish, reminders, eticket to save in your wallet. A must do if you want to see whales and Whale Tales the best.

5.00We had a wonderful experience! While we were searching for whales, we were provided with some great education about the whale population. When a friend of my got sea sick, the crew took very good care of her and she was able to get through things and enjoy the experience. And we were lucky enough to see several whales. I highly recommend this experience!
Absolutely phenomenal...
