Booked this on the day and money was taken out of my account straight away. Went to the said meeting place and the cruise was cancelled. I had no notification of this (had to ask another person there) and was out of pocket $260.00 Called the operator company after this and was told that they have cancelled all cruises but it’s their fault that bookings were still open on TripAdvisor Viator. Said refund would be given to me in 5 days time. It’s been 5 days and still no money received. The email said they will refund my PayPal account but I don’t have PayPal account I paid using my credit card. These people steal your money and very difficult to get a response to resolve the issue
I’m extremely sorry this has happened to you . Unfortunately you have the wrong business . We Kalbarri rock lobster tours stopped running whale watching tours on 3/10/25. Please contact Reef Walker ocean discovery and they will ensure you get your refund if you booked with them.
Amazing whale watching trip. The crew was great and very helpful, always providing information about the trip and whales
We went whale watching today and saw a mum and calf up close, it was amazing!! We will definitely come back, Thanks so much.
What an amazing tour we were so lucky to have these amazing mammals so close It was a spectacular tour we saw large whales jumping out of the ocean and also waving with their large fins
Brilliant experience and we were lucky to see lots of whales. Staff were very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone for an unforgettable experience.
The Whale watching tour was very enjoyable and the crew were awesome. The whales were a bit lazy early on, but the crew stayed a little longer than scheduled and the whales decided to put on a show right next to the boat, it was fantastic.
The team took time to give us some information about the whales. I felt safe on the boat. We had seen a lot of spouts and tails, but none close to the boat until almost time to finish. 2 awesome whales came up and circled the boat close so we all got lovely close views. Definitely an amazing day's experience!! We were about 40 mins late getting back to jetty as the experience made us overtime and the team made no mention of that. Absolutely went above and beyond my expectations.
Going whale-watching doesn’t guarantee seeing whales but we were lucky and our group experienced several whale sightings. At the end we were lucky enough to be joined by 2 humpbacks who spent about 10 minutes showing up close to the boat which was a very special treat indeed! The crew were extremely respectful of the whales and waited for them to choose to come to us rather than chase after whales we had sighted. Definitely money well spent!
Review from our eight year old “It was really enjoyable and I really liked seeing all those whales.” And from our six year old “I liked the boat ride and watching the whales”. Thanks for a memorable trip. We especially liked how the skipper was respectful of being in the whales’ space and not trying to get too close, while making sure we got a great view. The skipper and Kate made us feel welcome and gave great information about the whales. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
It was a lovely morning out on the sea with lots of whale and dolphin sightings. Staff were very friendly and kept us well informed as to where the whales were.
