      I was a solo traveler :) It's definitely not an issue except that you need to share a very small cabin (VERY SMALL) with a stranger. And bathrooms are shared. But it's worth it. I'll try another boat this year which has single cabin. I will share my experience again on this channel. If you want to subscribe you will get notified when I post the video :) I will go in November. So right after :)

      Thanks for watching my video. I appreciate that we all have different opinions. Otherwise, how boring this world would be. However, I feel the responsibility to explain that these activities are done with complete respect towards Mother Nature, in this case, these beautiful marine mammals, which I had the privilege to observe from a close distance without obstructing their behavior and routine. These activities are led by biologists who are very concerned about conservation and would never do anything to hurt the environment. Also we are not playing stupid games, we are just watching.

    • @Solonomadjourneys
      @Solonomadjourneys 4 місяці тому

      I will go back this year at the beginning of November, only then I will be able to compare :). However, the people from the boat told me that of course the beginning of November there is much more light but it's always high season so more boats out there and more people in the water. I went at the end of November and there was a shorter daylight time but fewer people. With the weather, you can never tell. It's too unpredictable. I was very lucky. But you never know. I hope it helps.
