Fantastic tour! Rachel was a great guide with really interesting commentary covering not only wildlife but also the industry and history of the area. We were lucky enough to see 3 albatross up close (rare apparently) plus seals, a sea lion and loads of other birds. The scenery was stunning too so even without the wildlife it stillwould have been amazing.
Great experience on board

Rachel was a very informative tour guide and easy to contact. Unfortunately, we had a day where the wildlife wasn’t all that cooperative and the sea was quite rough.
Great trip for kids

Fantastic trip to take the kids on. The wildlife to see is amazing and the trip doesn't take too long so an ideal "short break" for the day.
Great experience

Rebecca is an experienced, careful cruise pilot who knows "the ropes" about finding the best places to find wildlife and in some cases they come to you such as the albatross that loved hanging around our boat. I was wishing I had a fish to throw to him.

This is a great trip!! Rachel worked hard to find the sea life and birds that we wanted to see and we were not disappointed!!! She was in contact with me even before the trip, helping me with directions and missing tickets.
