We went whale watching in the Fjord on the sixth of February with a french group of students. We saw 6 Humpback's whales from very close by. They were curious and came towards the boat the Ambassador. It was a breathtaking encounter and some of the students were even crying so special was the encounter. Even the captain and the guide Ania were exited by this exceptional encounter. We got very professional guiding by Ania and for some students this was the best day of their life!! Thank you so much for this unforgettable whale watching trip❤️????❤️

We booked a whale hunting trip in Akureyri because we were informed that was the best way of seeing sea life. However if we had known the boat was only going to travel the same route as the Cruise ship then I wouldn't have booked it !! I know that we are in the laps of the gods with regards to whale/dolphin spotting and the staff on the boat were very knowledgeable about sea life & bird activities & in that aspect ot was a good trip. However having just cruised the same waters on the ship it eas a tad disappointingly. Sorry to give a rather negative view but those are my feelings
