    Je moet natuurlijk wat geluk hebben om walvissen en dolfijnen te zien (dat geluk heb ik zeker gehad!), vooral was de staff erg vriendelijk en was de boot goed onderhouden en veilig.

    De originele catamaran tour werd gister afgezegd vanwege te veel mist. Toen konden we overboeken voor de tocht vandaag in een rib boot. We hadden deskundige uitleg van te voren wat te verwachten en veiligheidseisen. We kregen tijdens de tocht door een expert uitleg en hebben 2 soorten dolfijnen en een blauwe walvis gezien. Een geweldige ervaring met zeer kundige en betrokken begeleiders.
