Cape Ann Whale Watch gave us less than 12 hours’ notice when they canceled our Friday morning tour—booked months in advance—because fuel prices were too high. That’s not a safety concern, and the last‑minute cancellation threw off our entire itinerary and lodging plans. The lack of professionalism and consideration for customers was obvious. Seven Seas stepped up and delivered an outstanding experience, but Cape Ann’s disregard for its customers ensures I won’t return.

Amazing experience l. Saw a ton of whales up close. The captain would carefully move the boat so everyone could see. The naturalist, Tina was knowledgeable. All of the crew were friendly.

The boat had a conservationist on board. She helped with information on each of the groups and also made it easy to see where they were and what they might do next. She and the captain worked together well to ensure we all had a chance to see the whales (moms and babies!) as they moved about. We were lucky to have two different groups who seemed to love the attention. The crew was nice and seemed very skilled at being at sea which made my nerves happy. Such a great trip, we will definitely do when ever we come !
