Perfect whale watching experience on a Zodiac
They guarantee whale sightings and we weren't disappointed. Humpback, Beluga, Finn and Minky. The guide was great too. She was very knowledgeable and divided her commentary equally between French and English. A perfect way to spend a few hours immersed in such wonderful nature

The whales were there!
A cruise that allowed us to discover the St. Lawrence as well as the marine mammals that inhabit it. Whales, porpoises, and belugas were present!
Wonderful afternoon

Family whale watching trip to Tadoussac
Very foggy and chilly on the St. Lawrence. Visibility severely limited. Instead of spotting the whales, we listened for them. And we found them!—beluga, minke and fin whales. Great experience. Can’t stress enough to dress warm.

Amazing 🐋
This was a brilliant experience. I’ve experienced many whale watches before, but this was next level. The zokiac allowed us to get up close and personal in a respectful manner. Specially, a humpback whale swam under the port side of our boat. It was otherworldly!! I highly recommend this tour. We saw many fin and minke whales and seals as well!

Book the tour, you won’t regret it!
We had such a fun time! It was a whale bonanza!! Humpbacks, fin whales and one beluga whale. We saw so many whales in such a short time that we went back and got to explore the fjord and see a beautiful waterfall, sea lions sunning themselves on the rocks and just the most stunning scenery. Guides were informative, entertaining and kind. The information was given in French and English.

It is worth it!
Very simple process to get the tickets and the information for boarding. The staff are nice and patient. The guide and the staff on ship are nice and professional. We saw at least four whales under their guidance and interpretation. It was raining but the most important is we saw the whales!

saw a huge pod of belugas
We met the boat at the meeting point and found some seats. The guide told us where we were going and what we MIGHT see. She told us how she would tell us that whales were in the area. We were really luck as we saw a huge pod of beluga whales, we saw minkies and humpbacks. There are toilets on board and there is a cafe/gift shop. We were out about 3 hours and seeing the beluga was the highlight of our trip- would recommend this to all

Outstanding
Outstanding experience! The weather cooperated with clear skies. Saw many belugas, humpback whales, minke, a fin whale and grey seals. You can reserve to either board the boat in Tadoussac or St Catherine’s. We boarded in Tadoussac. I think it was the better option of the two choices. There was more to explore in the town near the dock than in St Catherine’s. Definitely bring a hat, sunglasses and wear layers. It got quite breezy on the outside decks ( but so worth being a bit chilled to see the whales). If you drive, leave enough time to find parking etc.

We recommend
The evening cruise allows you to see the twilight over the fjord. The midday one seems to be quite busy. We saw minke whales, fin whales, a blue whale, humpback whales, porpoises, and seals. Be careful, parking in Tadoussac can be tricky (few spots, paid spots, time-limited spots). AML offers a bus shuttle that serves the ticket office near the main road.

Wonderful tour
Excellent tour. There was some confusion of where to go to join the cruise, as we booked for a departure in tadoussac but ended up sailing from Baie St-Genevieve. The staff at croisiere Aml sorted this out and we had an amazing tour.
