My wife and I went out on the Zodiac whale watch on a windy evening August 9th, the boat driver insisted on driving at high speeds regardless of huge waves causing all passengers to bounce very hard up & down on waves...sometimes right out of our seats.

Our tour guide was a very supportive and friendly lady. But when she needed help during our tour, her coworker did not come to help her which was very sad and strange for me! I was thinking what was going to happen if there was an emergency!!! When there is no...
