I did around 15 whale watching tours in my life in Mauritius, Norway, South Africa, New Caledonia and Sydney last year.
But this one today was by far the very best!!! Super nice, competent and funny captain who explained a lot about the … More whales. We saw multiple times so called double breaches (which is super rare). Since it’s a speedboat it is way easier to reach the whales than on these slower boats. Will definitely book it again! Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience 🙏🐳🤗

Without a doubt, the best experience I've had in Sydney!🤩
Dylan and the deckhand were absolutely incredible from start to finish. We were lucky enough to see whales up close, and Dylan's knowledge about whale behaviour made the … More whole experience even more fascinating. You can tell he's passionate about what he does and genuinely loves sharing it with guests.
What makes this tour even more special is the boat itself. It's fast, exciting, and a lot of fun, giving you not only an amazing whale watching experience but also an adrenaline-filled ride through Sydney Harbour.
Seeing whales this close in the wild was something I'll never forget. It honestly felt like one of the best days of my life.
If you're visiting Sydney and can only choose one activity, make it this one. Highly recommended!

Such a surreal experience with a very experienced and passionate skipper by the name of Dylan as well as “deckhand Dan”. Both showed extensive knowledge of not just the whales but the harbour and surrounding environments which made the … More experience incredibly engaging. Both were happy to answer any questions I had and overall made it a very comfortable experience as it was my first real time out in open water and I was quite nervous. I left with a new, keen interest in marine life.
I will most certainly be booking again.

Within the first hour, we were treated to spectacular views of not just one, but multiple giant humpback whales breaching and playing right next to our boat. The captain skillfully maneuvered us to get the perfect vantage point to watch these majestic creatures in their natural habitat.
