I booked the 7pm spot for the whale and puffin tour in July 2022 and it was an amazing experience. I felt super safe and warm with all the gear that you are required to wear. I was informed that the water was going to be calm and to make sure we bring cameras! I loved getting that heads up and was able to capture some incredible photos. We ended up seeing 12 whales and they surfaced so many times. I liked that the boat kept a safe distance from the whales and the way the guides spoke you could tell they really appreciated the whales and loved educating people on how important they are to the world. I've done a larger boat tour in Holmavik and loved the Husavik RIB boats much better as you weren't running from side to side trying to get the best view. It was amazing just boating with 12 people and having a great view from either side. I highly recommend this experience.

Amazing experience, really well organised and friendly. Knowledgeable crew who ensured we had a great chance to see puffins and whales. In the RIB we got to see both humpback and blue whales, being first out and fast to respond to sightings. Had a bonus dolphin sighting as well.

Beautiful trip on a zodiac, which allowed to be closer to the whales! a great team who accompanied us well explained everything! We could see humpback whales

Had an amazing trip out today, saw so many hump back whales and amazingly were actually so close to one whale we could have easily touched it. The boat captain seemed to have the knack of being in the right place at the right time and not scaring the whales. One whale really liked out boat and actually came to the boat and stayed for quite some time. Both the guide Laura and the captain August were lovely and very knowledgable. There were plenty of other whale watching boats out at the same time and we definitely got the best views of whales.

Just had the most spectacular experience whale watching with Husavik Adventures. We booked online last night and arrived as booked for the 1500hr trip on the rib. we got suited up quickly and the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Only 5 passengers so we could move fairly freely to get great views of the whales of which there were many. It was great doing the adventure on the rib as the driver skillfully was able to locate and get close very quickly to the sightings. Speeding through the ocean was great too. I would strongly recommend this company.

Back from an 11 day trip to Iceland. We booked the whale and puffin tour for when we passed through Húsavík. The check-in and suit up went very smoothly. When we began our walk to the boat, I walked a little ahead to hopefully get one of the seats in the front of the boat. When we arrived at the boat, the tour guide told a group of 4 to take the front of the boat. I asked if I could and she said "they were reserved". Since there was no "front of the boat" seating option when we booked, I am not certain why it wasn't simply first come, first served, as with 99% of group tours I have been on in my life. The boat took off to Puffin Island. I highly recommend bringing binoculars and/or a high powered zoom photo lens, since, and I am not certain if this is every tour, but we couldn't get close enough to the island to decipher a Puffin from a Pigeon. The pictures on the website make you feel as if you're going to get close to the birds and we didn't. The whales were very cool. We saw a bunch and the boat is quick enough to jump to an area where they are spotted. Another word of advice is that if you go on a warm sunny day, bring water. The suits you wear are very hot. That plus the waves of the ocean can possibly make you uncomfortable.

We took the 10am RIB boat on June 30th with our 8yo and 10yo daughters. The weather was a bit rough, and they warned us and gave us the chance to back out, but we elected to go out anyway. Definitely glad that we had hats/gloves/buffs and the provided goggles/suit/boots. The kids wanted to sit in front, and the captain had us parents sit directly behind them. It was a wild ride!! We had about 15 minutes off the puffin island and at least an hour out in the bay watching multiple humpbacks, the rest was transit time. One whale was SO CLOSE to the boat, it was unforgettable. I got great photos/videos just on my cell phone, that's how close we were. Definitely glad we chose the zodiac instead of the traditional boats after seeing them both in action. Honestly, for me, the most memorable part of the experience was holding on for dear life while cresting the waves and slamming down into the trough. Despite being freezing, we all had huge smiles on our faces and it was one of the highlights of our two week trip to Iceland.

Our tourist guide, Sofía, was spectacularly friendly and nice. In the tour we saw puffins, a curious seal and a whale for a long time. They put a lot of effort so we could see the whale and Sofía gave us a lot of information about the puffins and the whales. Also, the trip until the puffin’s island and to the whale viewpoint was really funny, the driver was really good. They treated us really well, we would hire this service again.

My daughter and I did the evening puffin island and whale watching tour with Sofia as the guide. There were only four passengers on the rib and it was superb - the skies were clear and the unusual 4-6 foot swell made for an exciting ride through the waves there and back again. We had at least an hour out where the whales were feeding in the bay and had plenty of opportunities to see one surfacing and then diving back down again. Very memorable and would do again.

This is the group to go with they are friendly and very informative. We absolutely loved our whale watching adventure because the the team and the journey.

I want to thank Laura for perfect trip.I heard a lot of curiosities from her. It was great experience to saw two blue whales.

Went whale and puffin watching on a two hour rip boat, I feel it was good value for money as I had a craw that made me feel safe and had lots of good information during the whole trip. The most important thing to say is I got to see whales!!

Had an amazing time on the speedboat! It was a lovely calm and sunny day. We saw 3 humpback whales, very satisfying. The host was very kind and was able to tell us all kind of information about marine wildlife and behaviour. They even named a couple humpbacks Milkyway and Missy, because they track and follow the behaviour of the present species. We root for these excursions to preserve this type of wildlife!

This was an amazing adventure, where we sped up the fjord with no promise of whales but we saw several and quite close. They provided suits for us to wear but make sure you have lots of layers on underneath

Husavik is doubtlessly the great place to see whales so there are a few companies offering whale watching trips. Due to the fast boat we were able to be very close of them - just a few meters. During 2 hours we have seen five different humpbacks (some of them twice) and hundreds of flying puffins. The service level was great starting for warm high quality waterproof clothing, nice fast boat up to focus on our impressions and safety. Great team.
