Amazing!!

Published on Nov, 2024

A great experience. We saw 2 whales and was a real highlight. It does get very cold on deck so make sure you wrap up warm but you can always go inside for a hot chocolate to warm up!

Good experience seeing life animals in their environment

Very good and competent guide, she spotted many whales, jumping out of the water for few of them, weather was sunny, sea was very quit, we were very lucky seing many whales this day, the captain and the guide were very good at finding them on the sea.

Lovely outing on the water

Very enjoyable boat trip to watch whales and dolphins in Reykjavík bay. I was relieved boat didn’t go too far out to sea, and I didn’t get sick. It was very gentle. Guide was full of personality and was very knowledgable. We went out on the Andrea boat. Plenty of warm overalls to wear. Office staff were very friendly and welcoming as are all Icelandic people we met. Captain tried hard to find us a whale to see, he went all over the place and even down by the docks where he thought the whale might have been hiding but no joy. Saw lovely pod of dolphins instead

Friendly and enthusiastic crew

The ships crew was very attentive and made sure that we had the best experience possible. Captain did a good job navigating despite the rough waters. They made sure that motion sickness remedies were available before the trip for anyone that needed them.

Fun time!

The crew was great fun and had great sound track playlist as we were driving out and back. Only complication was finding the since it wasn’t where staff member described. Perhaps better signage at the dock would be helpful.
