We are currently doing the ring road adventure. Yesterday was so beautiful out for whale watching and we got to see a few! Our tour guide was very informative and a great guide. I forget the young man’s name but he was amazing! Glad we got this opportunity.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you enjoyed the beautiful weather, spotted a few whales, and had such a positive experience with our guide. It's especially nice to know you took the time to share your feedback while continuing your Iceland adventure. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope you enjoy the rest of your travels around the country!
No sightings so I got comped for a voyage later in the week. Guide was super knowledgeable.
Thank you for your review! 😊 We're sorry that no whales were sighted during your tour, but we're glad you were able to take advantage of our complimentary ticket policy and join another voyage later in the week. It's wonderful to hear that you found the guide knowledgeable and informative throughout the experience. Even on days when wildlife is elusive, our team always strives to make the tour engaging and enjoyable. Thank you for joining us in Akureyri!
The weather changed greatly as you left the fjord. We were glad to have brought our gloves and hats. The tour provided interesting information and facts concerning the whales predictable blows prior to deep dives so we could watch for the tail. Glad we chose a little larger boat for the tour as the sea was a bit choppy at the entrance to the fjord.
Thank you for your review! 😊 We're glad you came prepared for the changing weather conditions and that you enjoyed the information shared during the tour. It's always exciting to spot the whales' blows and watch for those spectacular tail dives! 🐋 We're also pleased to hear that you felt comfortable on board and appreciated being on a larger vessel, especially with the choppier sea conditions. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you aboard again in the future! ⛵✨
It was a very positive experience: the boat was welcoming and tidy, the guide, I think his name was Davide, gave us a lot of information about the life and habits of these cetaceans and was available to answer some of my questions. We only saw one, but we watched it dive and resurface many times, even very close to our boat. Upon returning, you can download the photos taken by the expert guide for free via a QR code.
Grazie mille per la sua splendida recensione! 😊 Siamo felici di sapere che abbia vissuto un'esperienza così positiva a bordo e che abbia apprezzato sia l'imbarcazione che le spiegazioni della nostra guida, Davide. È sempre un piacere condividere curiosità e informazioni sul mondo dei cetacei e rispondere alle domande dei nostri ospiti. Anche se avete avvistato una sola balena, siamo lieti che abbiate potuto osservarla così da vicino e assistere ai suoi affascinanti tuffi e riemersioni. Momenti come questi rendono ogni escursione davvero speciale! 🐋 Grazie anche per aver menzionato il servizio fotografico disponibile tramite QR code. Speriamo che le foto vi aiutino a conservare un bellissimo ricordo della vostra avventura. Saremo lieti di accogliervi nuovamente a bordo in futuro!
Excellent experience, and on the day we went we saw 4 whales (3 Humpbacks and 1 minke whale) There was plenty of room on board the boat, and the commentary was good too. The tour guide took some pictures which we had access to and were much better than the ones we had taken on our phones. Overall we would highly recommend

Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you on board again for another unforgettable adventure in the future!
The ship is comfortable, and the guide is knowledgeable. There weren't many of us on board, so we could move around to see the whales better. The staff takes photos that they then share via QR code. We saw a couple of whales coming up to breathe. The boat does not use sonar and stays at a distance to avoid disturbing. The fjord and the scenery are beautiful.
