BEST TOUR EVER!!! - Absolutely hands down - the BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! I have been on other whale watching tours - big boats - big crowds and everyone fighting for the "shot". This experience was not that - comfortable seats - walk around deck - 360 degrees of big windows - boat only holds 20 per trip so everyone gets the shot and gets to see and experience whales like no other. TJ and Andrew were great. From booking to getting off on the dock at the end of the tour - 100% awesome. Incredible crew start to finish. Can't recommend these guys enough. Look no further - this is the BEST whale watching tour in Juneau!!!

Bucket list must do!!! - My husband and I, along with some family and friends, had the greatest experience with the JWT excursion. Our hosts TJ & Andrew were informative and oh so gracious. Our guides took us to what they called the whale nursery. There, we were witness to some amazing sights of humpback whales with their calves. Our boat was an amazing vessel! It had 360° views with a walk-around deck of forward, aft, starboard and port. Even with maintaining the NOOA assured safe distance, the whales soon had us in what was deemed as “whale jail”. I HIGHLY recommend this excursion. And purchasing the excursion through Viator was a savings over buying through the cruise line.

Whales Everywhere - Though a bit hard to hear the commentary at times over the engine noise, the naturalist guide and captain did a great job of finding and positioning us to see whales. The ship was built by a former engineer/company owner and has a 360-degree walkabout deck.

Chicago watching Whales - This experience was superb! The Capitan and his first mate were wonderful and knowledgeable and we got to see whales! I am very happy with the privateness of this whale watching. So personable. Everyone was able to be on the outside of the boat and get great pics. The Capitan made several stops looking for whales, we saw one at every spot. Nothing was left out! ALL 14 OF US LOVED IT.

The greatest whale watching tour in Juneau - This is the whale watching tour you want. The crew is great, the boat was over the top with 360 walk around. We got mugged on this tour (whale mugged - meaning we were surrounded by whales) The captain is very friendly and went out of his way to make sure our whale watching experience was over the top. We had a naturalist on board while was very informative and helpful.

Brilliant - We had a great experience on this trip. We saw Whales (Mum & Calf), sea lions, harbour seals & bald eagles. Cedar, who drove us to and from the boat was really informative with local information and Daisy and Alan on the boat gave us loads of information on the marine life. All in all a brilliant time. The boat itself was so cool too.

Tj & naturalist... - Tj & naturalist (apologies I can not remember his name!) were great & made the trip fun. We saw dozens of whales & they were great about pointing them out to everyone on board. Absolutely the right choice & amount of people on board!
