First time nothing, second time.... EVERYTHING!
On our day of arrival we booked the tour straight away with Elding. However we didn't spot any whales or dolphins during this trip. Because of that we got a free ticket to try again at the end of our trip... And I'm so happy we tried again! We saw more than 12 mink whales, 10 white beaked dolphins and a lot of Harbour porpoises which were playing with us. A unique experience told our very enthousiastic and friendly guide Elena. She is the best... We learned a lot from all the information she gave during the trip! Thanks a lot for this amazing experience!!!

We were quite eager to sail out as the forecast looked quite promising. The moon was (nearly) full and it had a halo around it, and while we did see very faint northern lights, the clouds were hiding them, so we issued complimentary tickets in the end.
