Testimonials:
_ _Kylie M - December 2023__
"This is the best, most enjoyable tour I have ever
been on. Preparation advice was excellent. This ship is incredibly comfortable
and well equipped, with multiple viewing decks, two bathrooms, loads of
seating, an indoor area to get out of wind/rain/sun; including slide shows and
information booklets on different species, pods and individual orca previously
encountered on the tour. The deck was made out of some sort of rubber
material, which was non-slip, and so comfortable to stand/sit/lie upon that I
took a nap directly on the deck itself. The catering was excellent, and a
veritable parade of excellent food followed us from start to finish, with
croissants, wraps, scrolls, cake, biscuits and fruit skewers providing
excellent fare. Tea, coffee, water and ice-cold soft drinks were provided.
I got a surprise the next morning, an email from Naturaliste Charters told
the story of our day, and the two photographers on board had shared a hoard of
excellent photos that they had captured of the wildlife. I got to see
somethings I missed (I took only my phone camera) and have some better quality
photos of things I had seen. Thank you all very much for such a wonderful day,
I have a feeling you'll be seeing me again, and my parents will be coming over
to join a tour in the next couple of years.
_ _Matt R - December 2024__
We were lucky that we were staying in Bremer Bay and suddenly the season
opened mid December. We promptly booked our tickets and joined the tour 2 days
later. Best thing we ever did. This was an amazing experience. The boat was
great, the knowledge of the crew was awesome and everyone was super friendly.
We seen a massive pod of 50+ pilot whales, 2 different pods of Orcas,
sheerwater birds and Albatros birds. The food was simple and great. Everyone
was very satisfied. Thank you so much for a great experience. __
