Ask for Demetria. Wonderful guide. My wife became seasick and the Cpt and Demetria were very kind and thoughtful. We saw a couple minky whales. Didn't see the big ones, but the kids had a blast. Totally worth it. Saw lots of puffins too!
We couldn’t have chosen a better day of our stay in Iceland to go sailing around Húsavík Bay. When we parked the car, around 9am on June 9th, there were hardly any clouds, the temperature was quite pleasant, there was no wind at all and the sea was completely calm. At the GG office they told us that our guide would be Fabio, who was very friendly and approachable at all times. Before leaving, he gave us some good preliminary explanations and helped us to put on our clothes. The journey started at 10am. We had chosen to do it by speedboat, which was also a great decision. With the fantastic day and the sea so calm, we were able to move quickly and comfortably around the bay. First of all, we headed to Puffin Island, where we saw a large number of puffins flying and swimming around. After a few minutes, we went to look for the whales. Luck was also on our side with regard to the team leading the expedition. Sarah drove the boat and Fabio gave us very interesting and entertaining explanations about the environment, the behavior of the birds and the whales. All of this made us enjoy the experience to the fullest. And, as expected, we were able to see some whales alone, a pair moving together and a mother with her calf, as well as groups of dolphins that accompanied us for a while at the end of the trip. As there were so many of them, the team decided to extend the visit a little so that we could fully enjoy it. Once in Húsavík, we went to have lunch at one of the restaurants in the port, where we were able to taste the local cuisine, which was the culmination of an unforgettable day. Many thanks to the whole team for this wonderful experience!
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and kind review. We are really happy to know that everything came together for such a memorable whale watching tour, from the calm conditions in Skjálfandi Bay to the puffins, humpback whales, and dolphins you encountered. It is also wonderful to hear that Fabio and Sarah helped make the trip even more enjoyable with their enthusiasm, knowledge, and care throughout the tour. We will be sure to pass your kind words on to them. Kind regards, Beatriz
Great nice tour made on the rib. Enthusiastic guide. Whales, puffins and dolphins spotted! Perfect!

We loved the tour. Additionally, we were lucky and saw everything: whales, dolphins, puffins, all with our guide Clara, who explained her extensive knowledge with enthusiasm and joy. I recommend it 100%.

Very nice experience, we were able to see whales. A very attentive team
Thank you for your kind review and for choosing Gentle Giants! Kind regards, Beatriz
The whale watching and puffin tour was amazing and we have never seen anything like it. On our tour we had a unique experience of seeing over 20 humpback whales. Our boat captain, Josephine, and guide, Jelmer, were so informative and were also amazed of our sightings. We saw several puffins and the boat ride was enjoyable as well. Overall, 10 out of 10 experience.
Hi Laura! Thank you so much for writing us! Seeing more than 20 humpback whales is an extraordinary experience, even for our crew. We are glad Josephine and Jelmer helped make your whale watching tour in Husavik so unforgettable. We will share your kind words with them. All the best, Fabio.
Super comfortable tour, they provide very warm Suits. We didn’t get wet or cold. We were very close to whales but not too close to disturb them. We had a very enjoyable experience.
Thank you, Julia, for sharing your experience with us. We are pleased to hear you had such an enjoyable whale watching tour in Skjálfandi Bay.

What a lovely review, thank you. We are glad you had such a wonderful experience and enjoyed seeing five humpback whales and dolphins in Skjálfandi Bay. We will be sure to pass your kind words on to Fabio, who will be happy to hear them. Kind regards, Beatriz
Layer up for the cold weather and sea spray. The tour guide didn't talk too much, and the captain did a great job getting us near the whales quickly. Originally, I debated between this type of boat and the traditional oak boats, but my daughter and I were so happy that we went with this one. It was an unforgettable experience, and Puffin Island was the "icing on the cake."
A truly wonderful experience. Saw humpback whales within the first half an hour. The crew were very informative and knew their stuff. Great experience.
Hi there!! We are happy you spotted humpback whales so early in the tour and enjoyed the information shared by our crew. Thank you for choosing Gentle Giants for your whale watching adventure. Greetings from Husavik, Fabio.
