Bluefin Wales and the high seas - We had a wonderful tour. It started on time and on the way to the area we were able to see large flocks of dolphins. In the destination area we were lucky enough to see some Poilote whales, followed by several Bluefin whales which appeared in the immediate vicinity of the boat and whose bodies were visible above the water surface. Unfortunately the sea was very rough (August) so there were high waves which caused problems for some passengers. It is best to take travel tablets beforehand and not eat anything. Food and fruit were also offered, all in all a great experience!

BLUE WHALE SPOTTING ♥️🐋 - Very Friendly Staff and they took their own time explaining each and everything. Was very lucky to spot many Blue whales including one tail up as well. Great Thrilling Experience 💯 Photos taken from my Phone has been attached.

Mirissa whale watching - This trip is advertised as a 3-4 hr morning trip, inclusive of breakfast and morning tea. It cost 60 USD each. We went on the early morning whale watching trip which left the harbour at 6.45 am. After about 30 min we ( and several other whale watching boats) saw an adult fin whale surfacing for air. Shortly after and separated from the mother was a very small (2-3 metres) baby fin whale. All the boats chased and got very close to the baby (with 2 m). This lasted for about 20 mins. I leave opinion of the animal ethics of this to you. Most of the boats then left the baby. We were given watermelon, cake and banana to eat. Then as we had seen a whale we were told we are now heading back to the harbour. Arrived back approx 9 am. Again you can judge if you this this is a good experience for the money.

Tourist trap!!! Don't book!! - The regular price for the whale and dolphin tour is $60. We specifically asked in advance whether it was possible to pay by credit card. This was possible, but after paying we discovered that $78 had been debited from our credit card statement instead of the agreed $60. When we asked, we were told that it was an extra 18% for registration and bank fees. That would have been excessive. But $18 extra is not $18, it is 30%. Even after asking several times and discussing things in the company office, we did not get a constructive explanation, let alone our money back. Absolutely a rip-off. Definitely not recommended.

Tourist rip-off!! Stay away! - We only saw a few dolphins and a fin whale for a short time. If you can call that "seen". The boat was pretty full and at the first sign of a whale everyone ran to one side so that hardly anyone could see anything. But that wasn't my biggest problem with this tour. We paid for our tickets with a card. We later saw on our credit card statement that almost 30% more had been charged than agreed. When we asked the responsible employees about it, we received contradictory statements. Some told us it was a government fee (which apparently isn't due when paying in cash), others told us it was a bank fee. After a long discussion, the responsible employees became very exhausted and angry. We also tried to get an adequate explanation for the outrageous additional fee in the company's office. But no chance. I can only advise everyone not to book a tour with this company. So far, the biggest tourist rip-off I've experienced.
