  I'll start by saying that we had a fantastic experience, though I know others have not. We were fortunate in that we found a pygmy blue whale early on. We were able to watch several dives before heading back. On the way back, we were able to see a pod of dolphins hunting, which was fantastic. The food they served was very tasty, and there was plenty of bottled water for everyone. The staff were kind and polite. I'm not sure how happy I would've been had we had to spend 8hrs or more on the trip, so I'm glad we were only out for about 5.

  Great service and ethics, something that most other whale tour operators seem to be missing. It was such an incredible experience to see the blue whales. The team put in 200% to make this an amazing trip, including a great breakfast on board. Having witnessed how other boats were operating (hunting the whales would be more accurate than watching), I am so happy I choose Raja & the Whales.

  The crew ans company are extremely respectful of the animals and have a lot of knowledge to share. We saw 8 blue whales and dozens of dolphins and it was a great morning!! The breakfast they serve on board was quite good as well, and they wrap the morning up with some cake and juice. It was a great experience and I'd highly recommend these guys as an eco-friendly and conscious company!

  Excellent! The team was very friendly and professional, they were explaining even person by person till the last minute. Very professional approach to the whales and they made sure we all saw the whales enough times. They were offering food during the whole trip, first coffee, then fruits, then fresh omelette and finally sweets. Very cool guys. Congrats!

  Fantastic experience with passionate and knowledgeable team. Everything from the booking process to the farewell at the end of the trip was taken care of with great dedication. I booked online and got my confirmation in less than 12 hours, they picked me up in the hotel on time and brought me to the ticket office by 6:30. 5 minutes later we were already on board where coffees and teas were provided. Fruit platter with 8 types of fruits followed by omelettes made 1:30 hour the trip to the whales area fly. We passed all other boats and headed to a different direction. All 3 hours of our trip we were by ourselves and saw 6-7 whales, 2 of which passed by our boat. We also saw a pod of dolphins and mating turtles. The team is extremely attentive, friendly and helpful. They made sure everybody could see the animals and explained what we were looking at. They take great pictures themselves and send them the same day to your email, so you can just relax and enjoy the day. On our way back we got cookies, juice and even cool towels to refresh ourselves. At the end of the trip they collected all the plastic rubbish from us to recycle it. Raja & the Whales is an exceptional company, I couldn't recommend it enough.
