Prince of Whales Telegraph Cove - Went on both the zodiac tour and the boat tour. The crew were so friendly, Stephen was a great captain on quite choppy waters and Abby was very informative and helped us learn about all the wildlife we were lucky enough to see!

Great trip with James - Had a great trip on the zodiac with James. Saw so much amazing wildlife, and such beautiful scenery. James was knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Highly recommend.

Great way to see some wildlife and the islands and straights around Telegraph Cove - The half-day zodiac boat trip for wildlife/whale watching is a great morning on the water. James was friendly and informative, with interesting facts about the animals we saw and the area itself. We were lucky enough to see a humpback whale, sea otters, sea lions, dolphins, porpoises, seals and eagles during the 3 hour trip. The boat ride in and around the islands and straights of Telegraph Cove would be great fun even without all the marine life sightings. Spray/floatation suits provided, but dress warmly.

Worth every cent! - Beautiful day, beautiful trip and friendly and knowledgeable crew. For a while it looked like we would be out of luck, but then there was the killer whale! Great to see!

Connor was amazing! - Four of us arrived for the 1:30 pm whale watching trip on Wednesday, September 27, at 1:26. In our enthusiasm to book we had missed the statement that we needed to arrive at 1:00. We pleaded with the captain of the 1:30 group. However, she correctly refused as the 8 already on the zodiac would have been forced to wait for us. We returned to the office where the wonderful supervisor called a captain who had just gone off-shift and asked if he would return for our little group. Connor agreed! Connor arrived so we could depart at 2:30. He asked what wildlife we most wanted to see. Orcas. Other boats were currently with three orcas. We joined the queue. I don't know how long we stayed to watch this little family of orcas. I will say, we saw the sudden death of a seal and multiple spy hops. Connor was very professional. He asked if we would mind waiting until their sister vessel arrived before we left, "No problem. " Then we headed across the straight to where the humpbacks were. We saw lunge feeding, tail slaps, and trumpeting. At one point, there were in excess of 10 spouts in sight. We returned to Telegraph Cove by a roundabout and picturesque route as the forecasted rain began to fall. Connor was wonderfully knowledgeable about the marine wildlife and the general region. My partner has been on 5 to 10 whale watching trips this season. All of us agreed this was the best. We've been with Prince of Wales before. We were very grateful to them for accommodating us.

Spotted 17 whales and all kinds of other animals! - We did a 3.5 hour Whale Watch tour from the Zodiac. Scotty was an excellent guide and quickly led us to the first 4 humpback whales of the day. We also saw sea lions, a Minke Whale (fin whale) and porpoises. When we thought we had had it all, we arrived at a stretch of water with 13 (!!) humpback whales. We have seen all behaviors return, including jumping out of the water. Really cool to see! Unfortunately no orcas were spotted, but as Scotty said: mother nature does her own thing. Highly recommended if you want to go whale watching!

Good Tour - Saw a fair number of hump back whales. Some orcas would have been nice, but no tour operator has control over which, or how many, whales show up. The tour was professional, safe and informative.

Amazing afternoon…. - We were very lucky to get the last 2 places on the zodiac trip. This was our third trip out whale watching and the first with Prince of Whales and they did not disappoint. With every trip it is purely luck if you get to see anything but we struck gold, and with Scotty as our guide we watched a pod of orcha’s and then entered humpback highway where there were 4 humpbacks all in different directions. His knowledge was amazing & he is a credit to your company.

A wonderful experience, definitely worth it when visiting Telegraph Cove - Scotty is an experienced skipper with a passion for his profession. He has given a lot of explanations and knows the waters like the back of his hand. We spotted all the animals we could imagine. whales, orcas, sea lions, dolphins… A wonderful experience, worth it.

Cancelled tour without notice! - We arrived early for our 2pm zodiac tour only to be told the pilot was sick and it was cancelled! My daughter had researched this particular area for Orcas and our Canadian trip was centred around it. We even visited the day before to check in with staff so we knew where to come. We ended up disrupting several days of our trip and rearranging ferry crossings to do the trip 24 hours later. The manager wouldn’t even come out of the office to talk to us and left a very inexperienced young girl at reception to deal with our upset and dismay. This is totally unacceptable to be in the building but on a “meeting” that speaks volumes! Personally I believe our trip was cancelled due to lack of numbers or customer cancellations so they cancelled us. I have emailed the manager with my thoughts and received no reply - again speaks volumes! We were advised we were rang the night before and morning of the trip but I received no missed calls and yet when staff tested the number in front of me my phone miraculously rang! The sign of good firm is what they do when things go wrong not when things are running on rails - in this case they did absolutely nothing! You crushed my daughter when you told us it was cancelled. I get things happen but your team should have better systems in place - like a back up pilot for such instances. I imagine you will be answering this review as it may affect your public profile - shame you couldn’t be bothered to answer my private email. Only saving grace was Scotty when we did get to go out the following day. Happy to take money months in advance and drop people without a minutes notice. But it’s okay you gave us a 10% refund! Complete insult when you disrupted our whole trip.
