The tour was an absolute success. We watched Dolphins, Minke whales, seals and lots of seabirds in their natural habitat. John was a great guide and provides inside knowledge of the animals, the landscape and the country.

Great experience. The boarding was seamless. The three of us are seniors, I have a problem with a foot but the ramp was not difficult. Eco guide was excellent. Not overly done. The weather was definitely Irish, had some sprinkles, clouds and sunshine. The captain was well experienced. Saw minke whales, dolphin, and seals. Bird life a plenty. We would do it again.

Lovely tour guy, who told us story, explained everything. We saw Blasket island, seals, Atlantic puffin, was sunny day. Friendly group with one man with his dog. We got a chance to go upstairs on the boat, 7 people in a one time. That’s was incredible. View, people, atmosphere. You’ll love it. The tour start from Ventry Harbour.

Fantastic day on the water. Lots of dolphins. No whale sharks that day. The trip was beautiful and educational. The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable on land, sea and Irish history.

This was one of our best tours during our Ireland stay. Highly recommend these folks. Small group so you could see and hear everything.

Mick was the captain who was great at spotting sea life and the red deer. He was fun and very helpful with correcting our booking mistake. His first mate or biologist was quite knowledgeable and gave a lot of interesting information and also fun. These 2 were the best. Can’t say enough about Mick and Bridget. Thanks again

We saw bottlenose dolphins and lots of seals. A beautiful afternoon on the water. There was a toilet on the boat as well.

Beautiful day on the water. Unfortunately we didn’t find the whales, but we did see seals and dolphins. The scenery was beautiful. The captain and his first mate very friendly and knowledgeable. Thanks for a lovely day on the water.
