I scheduled a whale watching boat ride in Sydney Australia which was canceled by the operator due to rough water. When asked how I wanted to disposition my tickets, I asked for a refund because I was leaving Australia the next day. I was ignored. Total rip off.

The experience was amazing. The guide kept us out slightly longer to allow extra time seeing the Whales as we didn’t see them until the end. In the way back in they also made a stop to see some dolphins.
Quick and comfortable...

Quick and comfortable trip from Darling Harbour to the whales providing more actual watching time. Followed a pod for a while at a considerate distance but close enough to appreciate this incredible migration journey
Not worth the money, definitely better options

A “2 hour tour” that lasted 1 hour 15 mins. 11:45 but turned up at 12, we set off and the tour guide informed is that it would take 20 minutes to get out and back and that we would be with the whales for 30 minutes. From that i knew we were not getting our moneys worth. We paid $90pp and expected to be out for at least an hour. The tour guide barely spoke to us and didn’t create that special atmosphere you would expect. I have been on one other whale watching tour (with barefoot whales) and that was amazing. We spent ages with the whales and learnt sooo much about them! Luckily we saw some whales for the 20 minutes we had with them…
Not a 2 hour trip!

It says it’s a two hour trip but it’s an hour and a half. The crew confirmed it was a mistake & said it should be changed. Feel ripped off!
