Whale of a time in Akureyri

4.00Even on a fine day, make sure you wear warm clothes! It was a great experience - we saw a young humpback whale and two orcas. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt a lot. Expensive, but good value!
Great whale sightings - highly recommended trip

5.00Enjoyed a very pleasant tour on a calm fjord. We were lucky to see a couple of humpbacked whales; one was particularly active so lots of tail viewing and the elegant arched dives. Best viewing point is aft (front of boat) although course, you are well into facing the weather! There are warm weather suits available and I recommend you put these on first rather than waiting until you get cold. Not a great look but certainly cosy. It meant I stayed outside the whole time. Jakob is a great guide and narrator. Photos were available post trip to download which is much better as then you can simply enjoy the antics of the whales and enjoy nature (unless you want to photograph and video of course). The photo download took about 5 days to come through. Loved the fact there was complimentary hot chocolate and coffee available too. We were on the smaller vessel which I prefer. Great experience.
Amazing time with pure nature

5.00Great experience, especially for the kids. Knowledgeable and friendly guides. We went out on one of their smaller boats, saw two humpback whales quite a few times.. hot drinks, blankets and other warm kit available on board. Definitely recommend. Extra bonus to receive the pics that they took in parallel to our own.

5.00Great experience! We loved spotting the whales and being able to see them in their natural habitat. The guide was knowledgeable and took some great pictures that were shared with us. The boat was great with an indoor space for when you get a bit cold with drinks and snacks sold!
