Whale worth it!
We had a wonderful time! It takes approximately one hour to get out where the whales are usually seen. The ride there was amazing. We saw two different whales and they were really close to our boat. Captain and guide were friendly and knowledgeable. Overall great experience.

Enjoy!
I appreciated that one could get cover indoors if needed (it was needed when the fog rolled in!). We were fortunate to not only see a pod of dolphins early on, but also plenty of puffins and we did catch several whale sightings!

Brilliant experience
We had a fantastic trip. The guide was excellent and the captain was amazing in finding the location of a Humpback whale and getting us near enough to view but not too close to disturb the animal. Would happily recommend this tour.

SUPERB
I had already tried this trip last August and we had seen a lot of whales (according to the guide herself). I had not seen dolphins and decided to try the experiment again. We still haven’t seen dolphins and a few fewer whales, but the outing is still a great opportunity

Interesting journey and lucky to see much wildlife
The boat was comfortable and we were well informed of what we saw: many dolphins (macro pod), including babies, minke whales and humpbacks. The marine biologist did a good job spotting the wildlife including birds. Nice refreshments for purchase on board. Boat departed and returned on time.

Great trip, lovely boat
Great trip, the boat was a little more luxurious than the alternative fishing/rib boats going out on tour. Nice to have different levels to view from and the chance to pop inside for a hot drink when it got chilly! The tour was a great success amongst our group

Once in a lifetime experience even with a lost phone
Wow… what an incredible experience from beginning to end. We saw so many humpback whales and seals - which was a once in a lifetime experience! Not only was the trip amazing I unfortunately dropped my phone into the bay before departing off; distraught the team were incredible and pulled us into the captains cabin shortly after and informed us that they would be able to contact a local diver to retrieve it! I was slightly apprehensive however we arrived back at the dock with the diver in sight and he thankfully had found my phone and it was working which was a miracle in itself! 5 star service from start to finish and I couldn’t recommend the team more! Even with this stupid mistake I again can’t recommend booking with Harpa Yachts and will definitely be back hopefully diving to see the incredible wildlife and not to find my phone again!

A must in Iceland whale watching on the Amelia Rose
Wow what an amazing experience best trip we have done . The whale just kept swimming between the boats giving us even a close up next to the boat . The Amelia Rose was perfect warm inside with drinks (hot and cold) snacks etc a fire if you got really cold . The guides were brilliant telling us which side of the boat to go to and as there are 3 floors the boat never felt crowded. An amazing trip
