We had a fantastic experience with the Marine Big 5 tour. The team was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They were also very helpful with rescheduling our trip because of the storm, which we really appreciated. On the day, they made every effort to help us see as much wildlife as possible and shared lots of interesting information throughout. Would definitely recommend!

Whale Watching near Cape Town -- Gansbaai Experience! What an unforgettable day at Gansbaai, proudly known as the home of the Marine Big 5! We were fortunate to spot all the Big 5 in a single day -- from majestic Bryde's whales to playful pods of dolphins, including sightings of the rare Indian Ocean humpback dolphins. The excitement continued with Bronze whaler sharks near the shark cage diving vessel, adorable African Penguins around Dyer Island, and lively Cape fur seals relaxing at Geyser Rock. Nature at its best -- raw, thrilling, and truly unforgettable!

We absolutely loved the boat tour! The guide was very knowledgeable and really cared that everyone had the best experience but all the staff in general were amazing. It was not whale season when we went so we didn't expect much but saw part of a whale as well as dolphins, sharks, penguins and of course seals. A great surprise was a sun fish we got to see as well which was very special! All in all one of the highlights of our trip and we would go again and again and again!
