The ability to see so many blue whales in this experience was just amazing. On board commentary was top-notch and made the tour something that will be very difficult to forget.

fabulous tour. The staff were excellent, informative and very accommodating. We saw many whales, mother and calves came very close to the boat. The tour was also very respectful of the whales. I would highly recommend.

Menaka_P, Sep 2023

Amazing experience! We saw quite a few whales. One was incredibly close and we saw it’s head surface. It felt quite surreal. Jacko and Jade were very knowledgeable about whales and sea life in general. Would definitely recommend it to more people

We were met on time. Smooth transition from shore to boat. Orderly & well organised. I picked a good day as boat was half full. The crew on board were exceptionally friendly & well informed about the whales. We saw humpbacks frolicking & breaching so very lucky. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience & would recommend.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you for your review and we are so thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time on board with us!

We had a Whale of a time!

Darren_k, Oct 2022

Thanks to the Captain and crew for bringing us out to spot the whales. We saw humpbacks and possibly a blue whale. It was such an experience, not one to forget. We were even given another extra 30mins to spot more whales, it was really value for $$$ and worth the battling of a bit of seasickness. Do take note, be prepared for some seasickness but other than this, it was WOW experience

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thanks for your review and we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your time on board with us! It's always good to prepare for the dreaded seasickness that can come up even on the calmest of days! :)

Very Enjoyable Day

Roy_M, Nov 2021

The vessel was very modern and seaworthy. The crew were very helpful and knowledgeable. They were upfront that it was the end of the season and that we might not encounter any whales. However, we were lucky and spent a lot of time watching a group of Blue Whales that included an baby. All together, a very enjoyable day.

Loved it!!

Rene_D, Sep 2021

Before we booked this tour, we has no idea that we would have the best tour ever. The friendly experienced crew encouraged us to move around the boat to see these animals up-close. We appreciates the fact that the crew and skipper always ensured they where not restricted by our presence. The complementary afternoon tea with biscuits and the cleanliness of the boat made the tour even more enjoyable. Thank you so much for taking care of us and we also hope to book your Bremer Bay whale watching tour. Rene and Ann

Great experience
