We went to Newfoundland in June looking for birds and whales and icebergs. This was our first tour and we saw all three. We saw humpback and minke whales, a beautiful iceberg with blue veins running through it and thousands of birds. The birds included puffins,murre, gannets, razorbills, bald eagles and more. It was cold and windy but worth every second. Newfoundland is a beautiful place.

Amazing experience! We took a tour last August and it was one of the highlights of our summer! We seen dozens of whales, and hundreds of puffins and other birds! Also, the crew on the boat were friendly, funny and knowledgeable. 10/10 would go again.

Very professional. Shop, parking lot, restroom, vessel, all clean, modern, well maintained, etc. We could not see the whales (a bit late in season), but it's not because the captain did not try. Around the first island, the captain steered the vessel in such ways to give us the best vantage point to see puffins. A few questions came to mind regarding the oil rig "parked" in the Bay Bulls bay, but these were answered even before I asked them. The added bonus of Bay Bulls history was nice. The last song was interesting too. We had a very good time.

Staff: Excellent, all so friendly and supportive. Our family did not have jackets, and they let us borrow theirs so we would not be cold. The staff has many jokes to tell and facts to give. Experience: Puffins, whales, getting screeched, and more. The staff made sure everyone got to see the puffins and whales. They entertained us with their music, and they made hilarious jokes to accompany with it. We got to see an ice burg and a sleeping whale! Tip: If you would like to get screeched in you should ask about it when you get the tickets and please know you will be drinking some Rum. Make sure that you bring some warm clothes/ Conclusion: This company made us have a fantastic experience, see new things, and made us want to do it again. Thank you, so much for an enlightening experience.

We had a great experience! I feel the company makes it very clear that whale sightings are not guaranteed, so it was a wonderful surprise when we saw about 50 whales! The tour guide was funny and knowledgeable, and we weren't packed onto the boat like sardines. We were near the end of the line to board the boat, so I was worried we wouldn't be able to see during the tour. It wasn't a problem at all...there is tons of room on the deck, and almost everyone was on their feet the entire time anyway. This left plenty of good seats for folks with mobility issues and parents with young kids. Everyone on board seemed very satisfied. Great value.
