100 times worth it! The tour was informative, funny and all around great fun. It’s really something to be this close to nature and to get to enjoy it! Whales (not guaranteed), puffins and sea birds are to be expected! The online booking is user friendly and super easy to use to change the hours ! Do not go to Newfoundland and miss this tour!
We had an absolutely incredible experience with O’Brien’s Boat Tours. From start to finish, everything was seamless. The shuttle service was convenient, prompt, and took all the stress out of getting to the departure point.
We were fortunate to have a beautiful day on the water, but what truly made the experience exceptional was the outstanding crew. Everyone was warm, welcoming, professional, and genuinely focused on ensuring every guest had a memorable experience.
Staff genuinely seemed to enjoy their jobs – made the trip remarkably enjoyable. They worked together to get a big group of us screeched in, provided an informative and entertaining tour and went out of their way to ensure that everyone had the best possible time. Very grateful to Patrick, Zach, Captain Roy, driver John and our lovely bartender! Highly recommend!
