We did a whale watching trip with these guys and had the most amazing experience. The boat was comfortable with plenty of seating indoors and out so you didn’t feel crowded and everyone had a great view. The crew were friendly and informative and took the time to chat with everyone on board answering questions, telling us about the whales and the onboard commentary was really educational. It was a little rough to start and the crew onboard were awesome with helping those that were feeling a little seasick. We were able to find one humpback whale and saw several breaches before he gave us a wonderful show and leapt right up out of the water! Then he was joined by a second whale and a pod of dolphins! As we were almost out of time we were thrilled to get a second jump! What an experience! The sunset over the harbour bridge and dolphin escort on our way in was amazing and the perfect way to end a spectacular afternoon! The photos taken by the team are absolutely incredible and the memories we took home priceless. Highly recommend these guys. Professional, informative, great value for money and more than delivered with whale sightings. They were also very respectful of these beautiful mammals and took care to give them the space they needed to ensure their safety. Will definitely book again when we come back and have been telling everyone we know!! Thanks Go Whale Watching Sydney! You guys are the best!
