Amazing experience
A truly incredible way to experience the wildlife and the scenic beauty of the mountains. The staff were friendly, they offer free shuttle service from town centre if you do not have a car, and the pilot was a skilled and smooth flyer. During the flight they communicate with other whale watching planes and boats to find animals and take turns getting close to view them. Got plenty of amazing photos and videos.

A breathtaking experience
Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Very friendly and knowledgeable team who try their very best, within the stipulated guidelines, to make the viewing of whales possible. Even if you don’t see a whale, it’s so cool to just get up in the air to watch the surrounding landscape and look down on the beautiful ocean below. And when you do see a whale, the sighting is like nothing you would’ve seen or experienced before. Well worth every penny spent.
