Our tour was amazing! Our guide Fredrick was wonderful. He was very informative and knowledgeable as well as very kind to speak both English and French so us tourists could understand exactly what we were looking at! We saw tons of wildlife & felt very safe.

It was sumptuous, we were able to see a whale up close! Excellent atmosphere, the staff super nice and pleasant. He is very good at listening. A discovery not to be missed. And don't forget to dress warmly even in summer.

Our guide made our experience great! It would’ve been amazing to see a bigger whale but this is out of anyone’s control. Loved to see the beluga whales from a distance and the seals were so cute!

Magnificent outing, we were amazed! 😍 Great guide who gave us very interesting explanations on the different species present in the region.

Beautiful experience. It would have been better to be closer to the cetaceans.
