Swim with Killer Whales and Humpbacks in Norway

This was an incredible trip. We were privileged to have Sarah and Patrick as our guides leading to some unprecedented wildlife interactions; one day over 100 orcas and the next day being in the midst of a pod of 19 humpbacks. We saw an incredible aurora; pinks, purple and green. All in all, it was more than we could have expected, and we feel like we have memories that will last a lifetime.

This was probably the best trip I've ever been on. The wildlife sightings were perfect, guiding and crew were fantastic, and the other members of the tour were lovely people. I would love to travel again!

This was an incredible experience, better than I could ever have imagined. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone.

Overall, the trip exceeded expectations. the accommodation, whale sightings and the service received from NWS and the Kinfish crew were outstanding.

This was literally the trip of a lifetime. Sarah and Kayvon were absolutely top-notch guides throughout the trip. They were so informative and always put us in a great position to capture the best videos and photos. The crew of the Kinfish were the best crew a person could ask for. They were so kind and helpful with anything you would possibly need. They would literally let you do anything on the boat from driving the boat to checking out the engine room. I’m so thankful for the opportunity to go on this trip and it wouldn’t have been the same without the people that were on it with me. Thank you so much!

I really couldn't have asked for any more from this trip. I will remember this trip for the rest of my life and would certainly recommend it to any whale lovers. Thank you to all who made it happen. The wildlife, guides and Kinfish staff were all fantastic. It was incredible getting up close to the whales, not just orca but humpbacks too. I had a feeling on the first day that we would get lots of good orca encounters but feared the humpbacks may be a little more elusive, however, Rita and Kayvon made sure we got the drops we needed to encounter these fantastic animals underwater too. I couldn't thank the two guides enough, they went out of their way to ensure all guests were happy. The accommodation and Kinfish staff were all wonderful, the food was fantastic and we were very well looked after.

Everyone in the NWS team who I communicated with was great. The staff of the Kinfish were amazing and you can tell they truly love what they do which makes a huge difference. I would love to travel with NWS again as the company go above and beyond to make the experience authentic with knowledgeable and experienced guides.

Thanks to everyone involved for an overall an amazing trip!! Amazing wildlife sightings, and once-in-a-lifetime aurora displays. We came away with unique memories that will stay with us for a long time - thank you.

Gemma gave us an outstanding service from the moment we asked whether there was a chance to have the Kinfish for the swimming with whales adventure. Not only the trip was organised, but Gemma also responded promptly to our numerous requests and helped us dealing with the uncertainty of who was to be the 4th member of our group. She even managed to get an extra dry suit at the last minute. We always received very professional service.

This trip was easily a 10 out of 10 experience. Everything was very professional and ethical.

My experiences far exceeded my expectations. The staff of the MV Kinfish were the heart and soul of the trip. The meals were exceptional and well thought out. The guides were world-class. They brought knowledge and experience that proved to be superior to all the other tours in the area. They treated you like family and ensured every person had a good experience. I would definitely book again. That week was the highlight of my life.

It was an amazing trip! Northern lights almost every night and many many orca every day. The guides were awesome and the crew on the ship were fabulous too. So many amazing memories and lots of outstanding pictures and videos.

Thanks so much for everything, Gemma - especially your help transitioning Jess for Andy! We would recommend this trip to anyone. The trip was absolutely incredible. We had success encountering orca and humpbacks every day, and the fulfillment of a life's dream to experience killer whales in their natural habitat, in the water, was everything I imagined it would be. On top of that, the professionalism of NWS, the guides, Kinfish and her crew, all helped make for a fluid, pain-free trip - thank you

The crew of MV Kinfish was amazing. They put their heart and sweat in making sure the boat was ready for the trip, made sure we achieved our objectives, and made sure we were very well taken care of. They were very accommodating and professional. Our guides Rita and Joshua were also very fun to be with. They definitely made the trip memorable.

The whole trip was a fantastic experience. I couldn't fault anything on this trip if i tried, truly wonderful experience! Everything was organised to such a high standard it made everything stress free and made the trip more enjoyable. Everything from the boat, the crew and the guides were fantastic and I imagine the same level of care and detail is applied to all NWS trips.

Everything went according to plan and it was an experience we will never forget! It was incredible! The encounters we had were amazing and the time on the water and boat were perfect. Patrick and our captain Oddgeir were great! Patrick did his best to ensure we got as many amazing encounters as possible. He ensured we were safe at all times and took us to remote locations, which allowed us to experience the whales in their natural habitat, not surrounded by multiple boats but rather by themselves, behaving as naturally as can be. It was absolutely incredible and we hope to travel with Patrick again in the future!

Fantastic. It exceeded expectations in every way. A very personal service from our destination specialist, Gemma, who was knowledgeable, helpful and extremely efficient. It was a pleasure to engage with her. Overall: excellent service, unique experiences, great ethos, friendly people, and our guides Patrick and Rita were amazing. They made our holiday perfect.

The trip was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone with a love for the ocean and its wildlife. I have a passion for travelling and your company was able to set up one of the best trips I have ever taken that I won’t be forgetting anytime soon!

Traveled to Norway to swim with Orca Whales. The trip was incredible. Very nicely put together. The guide, Patrick was absolutely amazing. Very knowledgable, great to be around, and made the trip fun and exciting! Gemma at NWS was very reachable and informative. Was easy to get questions answered and quickly.

The trip was very good. Usually we don't use travel agencies, but I loved travelling with you!

Amazing time. Great experience with wildlife, nature and fun company. Relaxed atmosphere.

A once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
