Whale and dolphin watching holidays

Whale watching or dolphin watching is available as an optional activity on many of our group tours. Discover where you can go dolphin and whale watching on our trips.

Whale watching on tour

Seeing whales and dolphins in the wild is one of the most thrilling sights in nature. Several of our tours offer whale watching trips on the itinerary, usually as an optional activity.

From breaching humpback whales in Canada to spotting sperm whales from the coast of South Africa, we go to some of the best places in the world for whale watching holidays. There's the chance to spot blue whales in Sri Lanka or pilot whales in Madeira, to name just a few awe-inspiring whale watching opportunities available on our tours.

A whale leaps out of the water, creating a large splash. In the background, a boat with two people observes, with distant mountains under a clear sky.

Dolphin watching

Seeing dolphins jump and spin in the wake of your boat is a thrilling sight. We include the opportunity to see dolphins out at sea, like common or bottlenose dolphins in the Azores. You may even be lucky enough to go orca watching in places like western Canada or Alaska.

We also offer dolphin watching on tours to countries where these magnificent creatures live in rivers. You could spot the Irrawaddy dolphin in Laos or even the rare pink dolphin on our Family Thailand trip. Where there's the opportunity to see dolphins in the wild, we'll make sure you get the chance to try and see them.
