We saw whales, so the trip was worth it. The whales were always submerged in the sea but would elegantly show off their tail or top part of body. This was still pretty amazing. It was an enjoyable boat trip due the birds, scenery and skillful calm sailing. Ive been on sea boat trip and felt badly sea sick, not once on this trip. The staff were helpful and friendly. Also the added bonus of photos being taken by the staff/boat. So could just take in the experience and not faff around with taking photos. The only slight downfall, is the amount of people on board, it makes it hard to get a view at times. Also was annoying when boat turned to face whale at 12 o clock, meant less view points/spaces to catch a glimpse. It was better sightings when viewing fir side of boat, 3 o clock, as more spaces for everyone to fit and view on the various decks. Even when other boats had gone, we still stayed longer and tried 2 different spots, so this was an advantage to ensure good chances for everyone to carch a glimpse. Wind was high, so crazy cold, there are overalls but run out quickly. Wrap warm, especially a snood for face!

Very enjoyable boat trip to watch whales and dolphins in Reykjavík bay. I was relieved boat didn’t go too far out to sea, and I didn’t get sick. It was very gentle. Guide was full of personality and was very knowledgable.
We went out on the Andrea boat. Plenty of warm overalls to wear. Office staff were very friendly and welcoming as are all Icelandic people we met. Captain tried hard to find us a whale to see, he went all over the place and even down by the docks where he thought the whale might have been hiding but no joy. Saw lovely pod of dolphins instead

The ships crew was very attentive and made sure that we had the best experience possible. Captain did a good job navigating despite the rough waters. They made sure that motion sickness remedies were available before the trip for anyone that needed them.

The crew was great fun and had great sound track playlist as we were driving out and back. Only complication was finding the since it wasn’t where staff member described. Perhaps better signage at the dock would be helpful.

Terrible experience. Do not do this tour. We saw no whales. We saw a couple dolphins and these small whales that looked like dolphins, but they were too far away. What a complete waste of money

Such a fantastic experience. We were lucky enough to see puffins, Minke Whales, Dolphins and Humpback Whales. It was an incredible experience, our guide, a marine biologist, was a wealth of knowledge, which the children in our booking loved as much as the adults.

We only got to see minkie whales. They are small and don't make any impressive displays. There are no big whales near Reykjavik so ignore the cover photo. It was very informative though.
