We wasn’t guaranteed to see any whales on our trip but we sure did see some. It is breath taking to see these large mammals come up for air and make a splash. We don’t see one come way outta the water but we saw several come up for air. It was exhilarating to see.

The trip was beautiful, very nice staff with lots and good informatios. We only saw a female whale with his calf, but it's ok. These are free and wild animals. We are not at a zoo or a circus. And we knew also that the season is ending.

This tour delivered everything it promised! We were able to enjoy the sights of the Sydney harbour as we made our way out to Sydney Head. The ocean was slightly choppy, so the advice to bring some sort of anti-motion sickness medicine is a good tip. I don’t succumb to this type of sickness, so I enjoyed scanning the horizon looking for the pods of whales. We saw a couple of moms and their calves. It was fantastic seeing them in their natural environment. There was plenty of space to move about the boat and the breakfast that was served was tasty eggs, sausage, beans, mushrooms, roll. Coffee on board as well as drinks for purchase. This was the next to last day of this tour for the season, so I’m glad I caught it before the end!

My family and I get bad experience on this tour as it was canceled 2 times. First cancellation was informed us 24h in advance.
But 2nd cancellation at last minute we get up since early morning and rush to go the meeting point while we arrived the agent just told us cancel again.
It spoiled all of our plan so sad.
If you have short period of time to visit Sydney I don’t recommend this tour to prevent the cancellation and impact to other tour schedules that you already planned.

Because of no fault of our own, with all fault directed to the Australian government, we could not make the trip. I asked for a refund, nothing doing. Kind of not cool, since the company doing the cruise had called the trip off. So it really was a sham.

This was one of the worst experiences I have had in long time! The boat should have never gone out in the 3 meter (9foot) swells. Over half the people on the boat ended up barfing all over the place and several people were knocked off their feet because of the massive boat gyrations. We did not see any whales and that was a risk you take and I can understand that. What I don't understand is feeding everyone a big lunch in relatively calm bay waters and then take us out into the massive ocean turbulence. They offered us a chance to rebook but I would think long and hard about ever getting on one of their boats again when they care so little for our comfort and safety.

Our trip lasted about three and a half hours with high wind, equally high waves and the boat rocking, plunging and cork screwing at times. Unfortunately due to the white foam on the top of the waves it was difficult to spot any whales but the crew tried their best. The skipper did a great job attempting to minimise the movement but the boat plunged its nose down a couple of times and many people were seasick. Overall it was an exciting experience and the operators promised an email for a free second opportunity as no whales were seen.

It was a very pleasant day out in the sun and we were able to have a nice outing in the harbor. The lunch was good and the team on board was excellent in terms of sharing their experiences knowledge and just what was going on.
Unfortunately we were not able to see any of the whales up close (apart from some very brief glimpses) made the day rather disappointing. But we understand that it is no fault of the team on board.
We are unfortunately visitors to Sydney and we're hoping that we could reschedule our trip.
Apparently they would write to us to offer an alternative however we have not heard anything today and we are leaving this afternoon.
The lack of follow-up was unfortunate so I would like to appeal for a refund instead.
Thank you

Seeing the whales was great. Lunch was OK. Encouraged to go outside but not warned about getting soaked. Also other people throwing up was not pleasant.
