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.
