“We were really appreciative of our guide and the whole crew in general. We went whale watching beginning of October and the whales were already further from the shore than where their ships usually go to. Nevertheless, they took us further so we could see three beautiful whales. The guide was very cheerful and passionate about whales. We were worried that we weren’t dressed well enough (we both had jeans only) but the company provided us with the water resistant warm overalls, so we really enjoyed it.”

“Took a guided tour with Gentle Giants on Sept 10 in the morning. Our guide was super knowledgeable and friendly, the speed boat was able to get to whale locations very fast, compared to the big slow crammed boats. We saw rare whales and humpbacks; at one point just over an arms length away. Our guide she educated us, the captain he knew what he was doing, everyone was so overjoyed. I am so happy I took a risk and spent a little extra on a much higher quality tour. Life changing experience! Sebastien and Tia”
