We had a brilliant time on this boat -our guide/captain was charming very capable and did everything he could to find whales. We had a magic experience with the whales especially an inquisitive mother and calf who swam all around our boat. It is effectively the end of the season but our captain found plenty of whales. Also the tour along the coast and the trip out and in were delightful. Highly recommended this trip which was very reasonably priced

I had such a lovely experience with this tour, especially because I saw the whales so close! Thank you Brent and Min for making my day so special! You are both amazing 🙏

We had a great morning on the Noosa Thriller. The skipper Brent provides a fantastic commentary and is extremely knowledgable, sharing interesting information about whales and their migration.

We did a 0930 whale watch tour. Saw plenty of mums cruising with their calves, and were lucky enough to see one tail feeding. Also saw a spectacular breach as well. Well run tour, good commentary, comfortable boat and only 12 pax. Highly recommend!!! Plan on doing this as an annual trip.

Noosa Thriller was great fun. Burt, the boat Captain and guide was very knowledgeable and funny. He drove around so we could get the best views of whales breaching. I would highly recommend this tour.

Fantastíc experience whalewatching with Noosa Thriller. We were fortunate to have a beautiful encounter with a Mumma whale and calf who were both active with breaching and pec slaps. Then another two younger whales. The boat ride itself was also an adventure, jumping the waves. Double the fun. Thank you for a lovely experience.

Beautiful experience - whales, dolphins, sun and blue water! Brent was very relaxed and an informative guide. And the boat - so much fun! Arrangements very clear and easy to follow. Thank you

What a wonderful experience, so close up in this 12 seat 27ft boat that powers through the waves and gets you to the action quickly. Highly recommend for anyone considering, our 2 hours plus was exceptional with several sightings and a "mugging" by a large pod of 8-9 whales that took and interest in us just as we were in them, they circled us for a good 20 minutes. Skipper Brent was fabulous and very knowledgeable about the region and the whales and their habits, etc...great afternoon out. Recommend front seats, better for taking footage and pictures. Thanks again Brent for a great couple of hours, well worth the investment...
