Our 17.30 tour was cancelled because of weather and we were not informed. We had made a special journey of 1.5 hours, and should have been informed by phone of email. An alternative (not with an eco boat) was offered after an almost 2-hour wait, and as we had no real choice. we accepted. Very disappointing and not at all value for money.

We are sorry to hear that you were unable to carry out the originally contracted activity. The local supplier is already aware of the situation so that they can take appropriate action. We are glad to hear that you finally had a similar experience.

Nos los pasamos muy bien. Nuestro guía, Iñaki, también español, dominaba el conocimiento de las ballenas y hacía el viaje ameno e interesante. Es verdad que las 3 horas de barco pueden llegar a hacerse algo pesadas, pero casi al final de la excursión vimos una en repetidas ocasiones y eso hace que valga la pena. Proporcionan ropa para el frío y un chocolate caliente con un cinamon roll al acabar. Translate this opinion into English.

We had a great time. Our guide, Iñaki, also Spanish, mastered the knowledge of whales and made the trip enjoyable and interesting. It is true that the 3 hours on the boat can get a bit heavy, but almost at the end of the excursion we saw one repeatedly and that makes it worth it. They provide clothing for the cold and a hot chocolate with a cinnamon roll at the end. Opinion translated. Show original.

Respetan mucho las ballenas y no invaden su espacio. Es una pena que haya lanchas rapidas que no respetan nada, y casi se ponen encima de las ballenas provocando estres en ellas. Nosotros des del barco ecologico, aunque vas un poco más lento pudimos ver varias ballenas. Al final es una loteria y la ballena puede salir al lado de tu barco como nos pasó a nosotros. Muy contentos por elegir esta opción y respetar estos animales. Translate this opinion into English.

They respect the whales a lot and do not invade their space. It is a pity that there are speedboats that do not respect anything, and almost get on top of the whales causing stress in them. We came from the ecological boat, although you go a little slower, we could see several whales. In the end it is a lottery and the whale can come out next to your boat as it happened to us. Very happy to choose this option and respect these animals. Opinion translated. Show original.

Pudimos ver varias ballenas y delfines. Pero de regreso el barco se estropeó y quedó parado a la deriva en medio de la bahía.Tuvimos que esperar más de una hora hasta que vino otro barco a remolcarnos hasta el puerto. Tuvimos suerte que hacia buen tiempo y el mar no se movía mucho pero varios pasamos un poco de miedo

We were able to see several whales and dolphins. But on the way back the boat broke down and was left adrift in the middle of the bay. We had to wait more than an hour until another boat came to tow us to the port. We were lucky that the weather was good and the sea did not move much but several of us were a little scared

Hemos verificado con nuestro equipo local que durante el trayecto hubo un problema con las baterías y con la carga de reserva y por ese motivo os quedasteis parados. No obstante queremos transmitiros que en todo momento la tripulación veló por vuestra seguridad y estuvo pendiente de vosotros. Sentimos mucho lo sucedido. Translate this opinion into English.

We have verified with our local team that during the journey there was a problem with the batteries and with the reserve charge and for that reason you were stopped. However, we want to convey to you that at all times the crew ensured your safety and was aware of you. We are very sorry about what happened. Opinion translated. Show original.

Hacia un día malisimo, el mar estaba súper agitado. Aunque nos avisaron de que habría oleaje, no nos podíamos imaginar lo que sería. Todo el barco acabó vomitando, sin disfrutar de la experiencia y solo conseguimos ver 2 ballenas a duras penas. No era el día de salir y ellos lo sabían.

Towards a very bad day, the sea was super rough. Although we were warned that there would be waves, we could not imagine what it would be. The whole boat ended up vomiting, without enjoying the experience and we only barely managed to see 2 whales. It was not the day to go out and they knew it.

El proveedor no permite que el barco navegue si hay algún tipo de riesgo para la integridad física de los participantes. Sentimos que no pudieras disfrutar de la experiencia. En cualquier caso, estaremos pendientes del servicio para confirmar que se lleva a cabo adecuadamente. Translate this opinion into English.

The provider does not allow the boat to navigate if there is any type of risk to the physical integrity of the participants. We are sorry that you could not enjoy the experience. In any case, we will be pending the service to confirm that it is carried out properly. Opinion translated. Show original.

Con il favore delle condizione del tempo ottimali abbiamo avvistato diverse balene, delfini e puffin. Meglio di così. La guida è stata competente e spiegato con dettagli. Gradevolissima la tazza di hot chocolate in chiusura. Ottima esperienza Translate this opinion into English.

With the favor of the optimal weather conditions we have seen several whales, dolphins and puffins. Better than this. The guide was knowledgeable and explained in detail. The cup of hot chocolate at the end is very pleasant. Great experience Opinion translated. Show original.

Demasiados barcos, algunos ruidosos y rápidos, tratando de localizar ballenas, de tal modo que cuando se encuentran las espantan.

Pensábamos que veríamos más a estos animales durante la visita. No obstante, creo que con tantos barcos haciendo dicha ruta, los animales se estresan y no tienen la misma espontaneidad que si no se les molestase tan a menudo. Un saludo.

Una pena que solo pudimos ver un par de delfines, pero el trato del servicio ha sido estupendo. Eso sí, mucho frío

No vimos ninguna ballena. La empresa nos ofreció otra excursión gratis, ya que no tuvimos la suerte de ver ballenas.

Mucha gente en el barco ,motores con mucho ruido .

El avistamiento de ballenas es una actividad muy popular por lo que, en ocasiones, la afluencia es numerosa. Sentimos que esto haya sido un inconveniente. Nuestro proveedor ha recibido ya tu comentario para seguir mejorando el servicio.

Al final no nos subieron en un barco ecológico. Era una barco como cualquier otro. Compensa por el espectáculo que es ver ballenas en su estado natural.

Ante todo, gracias por tu comentario. El barco dispuesto para la actividad es completamente eléctrico, y no ejerce impacto negativo alguno sobre el medio ambiente. Nos alegra que disfrutases de la vista de tan singulares animales.

La experiencia a sido muy bonita. Lo único malo es que las ballenas no estaban muy a la labor de dejarse ver pero alguna vimos y ha sido muy emocionante
