Awesome photo op - Knowledgeable crew got us in great position to see the whales numerous times as the whales move. Learned to watch the seagulls to know when the whales were about to surface doing their bubble netting. Very enjoyable excursion

So many whales! - Got a ton of pictures, one whale even swam under the boat and surfaced just on the other side, not 20 feet from us. The crew was so nice and engaging. I will do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you our crew James, Greg and Kacie!

Wonderful tour! - The tour was amazing and informative. Captain Mark, Guides Kristen and Kacie were in total control. They knew where to go to give us the ultimate whale watching experience, in addition to sharing their extensive education on Alaska's marine life. This tour was worth every penny, the memories and pictures we came away with are priceless!

Awesome experience!! Must go again! - Wonderful experience. Boats are modern, well maintained, and fun to be on. The guides and company are top notch. Everything ran on time, the whales were out and about, and all in all we had a great time. When picking a whale watching in Juneau, there are lots of options - but this is by far the best one.

Great crew, great sights, and a great time! - We had the absolute BEST time!! We saw whales multiple times and one even came semi-close to the boat! Our guides, Mark, Kristen, and Ben were very knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining! This was a dream come true for me and I can officially scratch it off the top of my bucket list! (Even though I’ll probably come back and do it again ;) **Pro tip: Bring binoculars!!!

You WILL regret it if you miss this! - Great excursion! The crew was fantastic and a lot of great information. We came at the end of the season so there were not as many whales but the ones we saw were amazing!
