  All worked according to plan but we needed to proactively confirm the pick up time via Whatsapp. Luckily we did as it was 30 min before what was written in Viator app. I got really sea sick (despite a sea sick pill) and saw almost nothing - just hanging (vomiting) on lower deck with couple of other fellow travellers. My wife enjoyed the trip and saw some delphins. No whales for us but that’s just luck. Ship was less than half full so there was plenty of space for watching.

• Disorganised pick up, no animals, good service on the boat

  Unfortunately we didn't see any whales or dolphins, and were forgotten about for pick up, so we had to take a small fishing boat to the main boat. After contacting Eagle Eye, the company apologised and sent a TukTuk for us but the main boat had already left. The smaller boat was actually the highlight of the morning, as it was a good adventure. Once we were on the main boat there were a few motions in the ocean a long way away but it was difficult to see. The ocean was filled with other big whale watching boats, all making a lot of engine noise and loudly all moving at the first sign, so I don't blame the animals for staying out of the way and underwater. I can see why this could easily feel like as a collective, we are harassing the animals. Service on the boat was good - staff were constantly looking out for movement and gave out plenty of fruit and cake. The vegetarian sandwich option wasn't great. As other reviews have mentioned, if you're prone to sea sickness I would proceed with caution or give it a miss. And for everyone, just limit your expectations.

• Waste of time and money

  Nothing no whales at all. Knowingly they had organized the tour because a mom and cub were targeted only. Giving this situation (presumably lasting at least several days), they were to cease operations . İt is waste of money and time

• Magnificent trip.

  A fabulous trip. Very good ship, The guide was good and English is also good. As a whole a memorable trip. Viator is costly compared to others but the ship was good and the pick up and drop me off to my hotel. Luckily we saw around 15 whales, 3 were very prominent. We need to require to go deep in the sea, the whales were waiting for us at close by area.

• We saw whales but its a tourist trap

  I booked this tour and tried to arrange the pick up from our hotel with the boat company. They sell it with pick up included but no one contacted me. Late night I finally got a response from the company, he was at some party calling me to inform me that the pick up wasn't included put we can have it for an extra of 4000 rubies. You asume for that high price and the fact that now pick up is not included anymore, they would mean they pick you and drop you off afterwards, but no. As we arrived we got the information that we only payed for one way extremely arrogant and rude. The boat trip was ok, breakfast not good. The crew on board was really nice and we saw whales. All in all, the team on land is unprofessional and rude. Its too expensive and just made to get some Money from tourists.
