“The Zodiac whale watching tour was everything we hoped for. The weather was not that great and the company offered an alternative choice if we felt that it would be too cold or choppy on the water for us. We appreciated that offer but we stuck with the zodiac boat...” Sheila, Canada, October 2024  >> See More Reviews
