Overall poor quality service. Old and dirty vessel. Did not see any Whale. Did not receive rebooking information or future credit.
Received the confirmation email for the trip and the advice the day after the trip. I do not recommend it to anyone.

Great experience seeing a whale and it’s calf - it was near the end of the whale migrating season so there weren’t any close up encounters like in season, but it was still a worthwhile experience….…next time I’ll try to go at the right time…

My mum and I went on this tour and we were both overwhelmed at how special and precious it was to see a whale and her calf swimming and playing around the boat.
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming and I can't recommend it highly enough.

They left without us. The moment I reached the boat which was already there they just left. We got late because of massive traffic jam we tried calling them but there is no phone number. We sent emails everything but still they left without us despite the fact that boat was still on shore. Very unprofessional and I demand my money back.

Unfortunately, we spent 2 hours bobbing up and down on the ocean looking for whales that didn't want to play. It seems that most whales had migrated, so it would have been difficult to spot them. When we did, they were so far away and surfaced for a couple of seconds only.
Not the greatest trip I've been on.

Although we didn't have any whales breaching right out of the water, we saw them close up - a mother and her calf and a few others. The commentary was interesting and informative, with a great sense of humour, and the staff were so accommodating and kind to everyone, making the experience wonderful. The boat was comfortable, and all the expected safety measures were in place. I would definitely recommend using Spirit of Gold Coast to see the whales!

Can skip this tour
We saw only the tip of 2 whales and they were going and coming around. I don’t think it was a good use of 3 hours and $

The whales were really shy and whilst we saw blow holes, they didn’t surface fully. The captain and crew were brilliant and persevered and eventually we saw two pods (Mum and Calf).

The Captain was very informative with lots of whale facts.

Had an amazing time.

The team were informative and very entertaining. Also went out of their way to take us to see more whales when we should have been going back to dock!

The tour itself was great, we were just not fortunate with the weather which meant it was harder to see whales but when we did our captain headed towards them so we could view them better but they made it difficult for us to spot them. We were lucky enough to see a baby come right up beside the boat just before we had to head back in.
