Amazing! We saw 3 blue whales! Little note though, it is a very bumpy boat ride, so be warned if you get sea sick :)”

fabulous experience just seeing the beautiful Blue up close.however I think that too many boats rush to a sighting and scares the whale away. port authorities should stagger the departure of boats so as to give viewers a good experience.”

It was interesting to see a little bit of the whales, however if you're prone to motion sickness I recommend you take the necessary precautions and go at a time when the waves aren't so huge and bumpy as it made for a bumpy ride that led to a lot of sick people on board.”

Tour was done on a boat that took about ~70 people. Thumbs up to crew for searching whales so no one is disappointed. Served light breakfast, seasick pills and fruits. One crew refused to give a Chinese guest the barf bag, and passed remark that Chinese likes to throw up! Racist!”
