Great Ocean Tour - Captain Dani and Jill were fantastic guides. They both were also knowledgeable about all the ocean creatures. Even though we did not see any whales, we saw many dolphins and a sun fish.

Your operator will cancel... - Your operator will cancel your expedition if there are not enough participants, which is what happened to us (we were offered a refund or a booking on a later expedition). But this was not the fault of the captain and crew, who were delightful.

Excellent views of many... - Excellent views of many dolphins and saw sea lions. No whales so that’s why it was a 4 not a 5 rating.

Dolphins and seals no whales - It was enjoyable but we expected more talk about area or wildlife was a more quiet experience & blankets provided would have been nice and pads for seats especially since your paying for a little more private experience.

Large crowd, not luxurious - This time of year it is really cold! Boat was very basic. Not much information from captain or crew.

Disappointed - If I had known the probability of seeing a whale was so low, I would have skipped it. We saw dolphins and the boat ride was fine, but users should understand there is probably a greater likelihood of nit seeing whales than seeing whales. They should change the name accordingly.

Not like advertised - The Captain came out to greet us in line. Not friendly and disappointed it was only 6 of us. He then went on immediately stating we probably will end up turning around due to wind One man crew. No personal experience ie...like a tour guide. The boat was not luxury at all We returned offered tickets for another day. The captain said its better in the mornings thats the best time not 3pm end of tour
