Fantastic trip - we saw a total of 17 Whales - the guide / commentator was great - so knowledgeable and enthusiastic. we were so lucky on the weather - almost calm seas , sun and 30c brilliant trip
Great trip. I loved having the wildlife specialist on board. She was very knowledgeable and gave great details. It was difficult to see through all the people. I got a few good shots, but there are lots of people in them even holding my camera over my head.
Amazing! We saw so many whales and were surrounded on all sides. The crew did a fantastic job navigating around the whales and sharing their knowledge. They truly care about wildlife and the environment.
At one point we literally saw eight humpbacks at the same time. There were four to the front at five directly to the rear. It was a trip replete with whales as well as oohs and aahs with just about everyone on board.
Absolutely a Must-Do for Boston visitors! The knowledge and professionalism of the crew was Stellar.
