Very nice and knowledgable. staff. We saw a Sei whale and lots of dolphins on our trip. One word of warning, when they say the trip is not suitable for people with back issues they mean it. The boat we went out on was a small RIB/semi rigid type and it was a very bumpy ride. My mother didn't consider her back an issue, but she was very sore for several days after the trip. If you are in any doubt maybe check to see if you can go out on a larger vessel, as I believe the company does have a couple of fibreglass boats in its fleet.

This tour was amazing, we got to see '2 Fin whales and a Blue whale' along with flying fish and birds, the staff and crew were lovely , informative and passionate about what they did. Seeing the Blue whale was very emotional for everyone including the crew who don't get to see these very often, Top marks highly recommended

We saw two types of dolphins, which was great. The tour guide was informative. Unfortunately, we did not see any whales. The tour was too long. 2 hours would have been enough. Be sure to use sun screen.
