Truly an experience of a lifetime! After 5 days of swimming with the humpbacks in August I am truly the happiest person on the planet! What an awesome experience!! Nadia and her partners are running a 5-star operation, everything is taken care of. Great accommodation, great boat and skipper, and great guides who stick to the rules of max. 4 people plus 1 guide per whale. Lovely evenings out with really good food (loved the Mongolian BBQ!). We saw whales every single day, moms and playful calves, a heat run, encountered an incredible male singer which touched our hearts - a life changing experience, which I highly, highly recommend!! I will be back! Thank you soooooo much Nadia Aly for making it happen and for taking care of everything- loved every second! 😍

Truly once in a lifetime! Swimming with the humpback whales of Tonga has been a dream; the interactions are intimate, on nature's terms, and each opportunity is a gift to cherish! Humpback Swims is a best-in-class operation from logistics, crew expertise and professionalism to knowledgable guidance on any need one might have in a remote place like Tonga. 5 water days - Flying Annie

Amazing whale experience Just returned from a 2 week trip to Tonga (in the South Pacific) to snorkel with humpback whales in Tonga with my brothers John and David. David is an underwater videographer, and he met our fearless leader, Nadia Aly, on a shark diving trip. Nadia has created a wonderful trip - she has found the best housing, the best guides, the best boats, and the best food. Take a look at this video (this site will not let me include a web site, so search "Tonga humpbacks David Trescot" to find his wonderful video.

Do Not Hesitate WOW, Just WOW! It doesn't seem real...But it IS! The whale encounters are an experience of a lifetime. With only 4 in the water at a time and some encounters with moms, calves and escorts lasting over an hour...Simply Incredible! We even had a singer!! It's always exciting to hear the whale's song but to be close enough to physically feel it resonate through your body... UNFORGETABLE! As for Nadia... total rockstar! Her attention to detail and knowledge of Tongan logistics are invaluable. She's operated for years on Vava'u securing access to the best resorts, boats, captains and guides. She is very quick to respond to any questions/concerns you might have pre-trip and is always available throughout your stay. Factor in her infectious energy along with the warmth and kindness of the Tongan people, and you can't go wrong. Do not hesitate to book this trip!

OUTRAGEOUS! Do NOT book with this company! The owner kept my 1000$ deposit since covid started, refusing to give it back even after postponing for 3 YEARS! I begged her to give me my money back when covid hit and put me in a really tough financial position (not being able to pay rent and buy decent food) but never got a single dollar back, and didn't even TRY to make a gesture at all (split the apple in half would have been appreciated considering...). This says a lot about her as a person, and I don't think I even need to elaborate... Plenty of other operators with great customer service if you’re looking for a humpback swim, don't let your dream be ruined by a company like this one!
