Dreams came true - We were very lucky with the weather. It was calm, clear blue sky and very sunny. The whole ride was just amazing! A dream came true. The crew was so professional, friendly and very kind. They gave a lot of information and were really devoted and committed. I only have good things to say about them. We saw killer whales, humpback Wales, sea lions and bold eagles. Just WOW!

Great outing - Capt Russ and his crew of knowledgeable and engaging naturalists were great to spend the afternoon with. We saw whales, sealing, eagles and more. Once they found a group of whales we stuck with them for quite a while and learned all about them as a species and individually. I would highly recommend this excursion and will probably do it again myself.

Seal, eagles and humpbacks - oh my! - We saw an amazing amount of wildlife on our cruise - seal, eagles, humpback whales and small island sheep. The boat allowed us to view the humpbacks for a long time - which was great! Got good photos, plus the wildlife photographer on board sent out beautiful photos from the tour. Great trip with Eagle Wing Tours! Ww will definitely cruise with them again!

Amazing Expirience! - Thank you Eagle Wing and guide Sam S. for a wonderful experience in Victoria yesterday! I have never been whale watching in Victoria, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much time we got to spend with several pods of orcas. We saw a spy hop, and tail slapping. We got to watch a pod of orcas share a meal. We also got to see all 4 pinniped species that could be expected, including stellar and California sea lions, a sea otter, elephant seals, and harbour seals. We also saw a porpoise and a bald eagle as well as some other marine birds. This tour was much more than I could have ever hoped for. I will definitely be back!!!!

Incredible! Best crew we could’ve hoped for - Booked this as part of our Canada road trip while in Victoria. Team were incredible! Very attentive and informative, and they were all great with the young kids on board. We went all the way to Discovery Bay in Washington and extended our trip by an hour, after the crew had a tip off about some Orcas, and we were successful! All members very knowledgeable and friendly and would definitely be booking with these guys if in Victoria again! Thank you so much Russ, Izzy, Caio, Carol and Selena!

Unforgettable experience - Incredible experience. Such knowledgeable friendly staff. I love that they do not have a set schedule. They take all the time needed to make an incredibly memorable experience. The environmentally conscious ethos adds to the experience. These people care about what they do and care about the animals they give us the privilege of seeing.

Highly recommend Eagle Wing Tours! - I highly recommend this tour and company. We saw a Humpback whale, then a pod of playful Orcas, and then another two Humpback whales. The crew were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. They were very respectful of the whales, keeping the appropriate distances away. The captain turned the boat so we weren’t being blinded by the setting sun. The boat (4 Ever Wild) was comfortable and big enough for everyone to be able to see the whales. Great experience!
