The most incredible trip ever. Surrounded by whales! Super friendly and helpful team, we booked and got delayed so they moved our trip back a day for us. 10/10
Absolutely amazing!! Was lucky to see a whale vertical jump. We got to see so many whales, dolphins and sea lions. Me and my husband will remember this cruise forever.
