She was FUN, she was INFORMATIVE, she was GREAT with ALL the people aboard. She is one of the reasons we chose San Juan Safaris -- and CHOSE to come back for two more cruises in the same week. It was a great experience. We hope she has a GREAT off-season and that she returns year after year. If she has left the island already -- please pass this along to her.

As you wrote, watching the whales in dead silence as we drifted with the engines off, on flat water, was about as good as it gets. Let me also echo the advice in your brochure ( or somebody's brochure) not to get so caught up in trying to take pictures that you miss the complete experience----I took some OK snapshots, and I'm glad I did, but they could never capture the light and the quiet as you described it. I can picture in my mind everything that you described. john and jane van bolt, plymouth, mi. Laura and Captain Craig– we were on that trip… we can’t thank you enough for a truly memorable evening.
