What a fantastic trip. From start to finish the skipper and crew were amazing and very knowledgeable. Swimming with the sea lions was the best experience of our whole holiday. Highly recommended. Full review by BarlowO

Hi, I am trying to establish why there is a significant price difference between your company and others? Would love to understand the difference so we can travel with the best supplier possible. To any past travelers, I would love any feedback on what made you choose Calypso over other companies. I want to get this right :)

Hello Michwoodz, thank you for your message. Our price includes all the fees payable on the day. We choose to advertise our price as the most you will pay one the day with no hidden extras. The other operator's prices does not include the visitor use fee to Neptune Island Marine Park (they charge $39) and then if you see sharks on the day they charge a further $175 to jump in the cage. If sharks are seen on the day our price is in fact $29.30 cheaper. Please also note that if sharks are not sighted on our trip we do give our guests a $100 refund and a voucher to the value of $200 (adults) to use towards another trip. We are the only one day operator who provides a discount to try again. One other difference in the way we operate is that we are the only one day operator who is privileged and permitted to use natural fish berley to attract the sharks on the day. This sustainable and eco certified practice does give you the best chance of shark sightings and interactions on the day which is one of the many reasons people choose to travel with us. Our annual success rate is 83% since January 2011. We publish all of our sightings on our website with complete transparency and are the only operator who provides this information after every trip. Please also note our main vessel is also the only stabilised boat (reduces the roll and increases comfort for guests on the day) and we also have no minimum guests to operate so you can have the confidence to make all your travel arrangements that if you book our trip we will operate (only subject to weather). We hope to see you on board with us one day and if you have any more questions please ask :)
