Interesting trip. There were 4 breaks, we would have preferred maybe 2 breaks so we could spend more time at the Visitor Centre which was really interesting. Unfortunately the cable car was closed as it was very windy but GYG refunded the money very speedily. Recommended.”

The crew took more time than originally planned, until we could spot pilot whales. They always ensure that the animals are not disturbed. The crew was extremely friendly, pleasant and accommodating! We would like to thank Lucia in particular, who took the time to personally translate for us and our children the interesting information about the animals we saw and to ensure that our children had the best possible view of the animals!”

“I had a really amazing experience. Guy is a really nice guy, and has a special way of a connection with the ocean.
