Unbelievable experience!! - There’s not more to say than this is an unbelievable experience!! We were picked up and taken early and had a very enjoyable and knowledgable journey to the bay. It started as a slightly grey and quiet day but that changed quickly. The sun came out and so did the whales. They tour guides were amazing and knew all the whales names ages and spotted them really early (which i know is unpredictable) and followed them all day with multiple sighting of single males, groups and babies! (I’m not good at catching them on camera though) I would recommend this to anyone. Although if you are prone to sickness a warning to get tablets - we luckily were ok but it nearly was a very expensive sleep for my husband - and we were lucky it was a calmer day (which is still pretty choppy) Then picked up and dropped home - thank you so much for a great experience

A killer day with the killer whales! - Seeing the Killer Whales has been a bucket list item for me and my wife and choosing The Busy Blue Bus to get us to Bremer Bay was the smart option. It was a memorable day, but also long and tiring so we were grateful that we could sit back and relax. Susan was punctual and professional and drove in a safe manner. She is also very well organised, and displays a caring nature. Susan took care of our booking for this and two other trips and the process was hassle free. We can’t thank Susan enough for helping us enjoy a day that we will long remember and we have no hesitation in recommending The Busy Blue Bus to other visitors to Albany.

The best van service to get from Albany to Bremer Bay - We were in Bremer Bay for 4 days in March 2022. We flew to Albany and arranged for Susan to drive us to Bremer Bay and back. She made the whole booking process and the trip so easy and pleasant. We needed flexibility on the dates while booking the trip from the USA. Susan was very responsive over WhatsApp and made the entire experience a breeze. She is a friendly and cheerful professional, as well as a safe driver. She followed all COVID protocols and went out of her way to make sure we felt safe. We will be calling her again on future trips. Thank you, Susan!
