Who Are We?

For the last 18 years, Quest Tours, our small group travel agency, has established a magical connection with Tonga, and have since branched out to create our whale swim company, Whaledive.net.

We are now about to discover some NEW destinations, to continue to swim with all kinds of Whales!

Timor Leste and Tahiti.

We have shown over 1,000 happy travellers the incredible experience, discovering the whales of Vava’u Tonga and are excited to explore these destinations!

Our snorkelling groups are capped at 8 plus your tour leader to maximise your whale experience and to allow easy transport around our destinations for optional activities.

Travelling to remote places can sometimes come with "glitches" in travel arrangements; flight delays, weather interruptions and other events, can all create issues. Support of your licenced travel agent in Australia AND your tour leader on the ground to help in sorting out any difficulties in these situations is PRICELESS.

"An absolutely amazing trip that you have to experience to appreciate! Being in the water with the Whales is breathtaking and the Tongan people are some of the loveliest on the planet. Definitely a 5 star experience & worth every cent!"

"It is a totally exhilarating experience to have a Humpback whale pass you by while you are floating in the most beautiful clear blue water you have ever seen, totally breathtaking and a once in a lifetime experience that will be very hard to beat. . Vava'u is a place that has no concept of time, a unique place place to just sit and watch the world go by for a week or two. All in all a pretty awesome adventure. "

"I came with two professional cameras, thinking I was prepared for anything.... But little did I know... Today I did not take a shot. But I was left speechless and crying tears of joy - what we experienced cannot be put into words: I like to call it "sound therapy" . we were laying silent, for 2hours, somewhere in the middle of the ocean. Floating just 30m above one big beautiful creature. Every particle of my body is still vibrating from this song of a fully grown Humpback Whale calling a mate.

"Hi Ron, Just letting you know that we had an amazing experience swimming with the whales that will live in our memories forever. Thanks for the opportunity to join one of your groups and many thanks to Geoff for his guidance, organisation and friendly company that made our whole group appreciate the wonderful and unique experience that we were all having on land and in the water. Thank you once again for the wonderful experience, joy and fun we all had on this tour and we look forward to perhaps joining you or Geoff on another Quest Tour in the near future."
