“Perfect trip! ”
July 24th 2016
We loved our whale watching/ puffin tour on the rib. Gentle giants is a very
organized and professional tour company. They provide warm, waterproof
overalls, gloves, hats and goggles to keep nice and warm. The rib was very
smooth and comfortable and none of us got sea sick! We saw a few humpback
whales that came right up to the boat and were played with the captain and
guide! We also had the opportunity to see the blue whale which is apparently
quite rare. Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable and was just as excited
about seeing the whales as the tourists! Was a highlight of our trip. Our captain
( the head captain ) was also amazing! Thank you!

July 24th 2016
Had such a great experience! Friendly and accommodating staff. I had
mistakenly booked the larger boat instead of the RIB. They helped change my
reservation. Great time on the boat with fun staff! SAW A BLUE WHALE!!!
Would do this again!
