Highlighted reviews from other travelers
Our guide was so knowledgeable and kind! We saw many whales and thoroughly enjoyed our time
We saw 5-6 humpback whales and we also saw 2 whales jumping up and down multiple times. Could not have asked for a better experience. Puffin Island thing is so-so. You don’t get to see them up close.
