    An unforgettable experience!!! We saw many whales close to our boat…amazing! The staff was super friendly and helpful. They talked about the whales behavior and gave us tips to spot whales. We felt very safe all the time and were able to make many videos and pictures. 10 out of 10 - we highly recommend!

    We had an amazing experience with Adventure Rafting! The ride out to find the whales was thrilling and we were fortunate to see a number of whales. The most special sighting were two humpback whales that circled the boat for quite some time giving us a spectacular close encounter. Thank you to Brendan and Hayden for being excellent guides and, in particular, to Brendan for his humour and sharing lots of interesting facts about the whales :)))

    I had a great morning. For a while I thought we were only going to see a few cruising whales but we got quite a show in the end. Booking and checking in are hassle free. I would definitely recommend Adventure Rafting. The small boat is the way to go.

    The absolute best experience! Can’t recommend this boat tour enough. Not a fancy boat with a deck - we didn’t need that. This was FUN!! Fast, wet and the whales loved circling us. I want to go again next weekend. I mean, we could have just about jumped on for a ride if we wanted to. Just amazing!
