Customer Reviews

We had a great trip with oven safaris. The experience with the whales was incredible. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was respectful of the animals space. I would recommend this trip and would definitely go again. - Ilse


The tour was amazing, the guide was super energetic and well informed, which really added to the experience! - Eline


They really put in the extra effort for us the see the whales. They explained a lot about whale and dolphin behaviour. The captain and guide were a good team. I had a wonderfull stay. The beach launch wad nice but nut scarry at all. - Harald


What an amazing experience. The guide was very skilled at finding the whales - without him we would have had zero chance of spotting them. The seals were so numerous and cute. Driving back onto the beach kamikaze style was a great adrenaline style experience. Defenitely recommend this company - Barbara


Great experience. The guide knew what he was doing and he also has a sence of humor. We saw the whales, didn't get the tail though. - G.
