Whales, whales, and more whales - The guides and the boat driver were amazing. The guides even took pictures of all the things we saw and sent them to us. We saw Wales, sea lions, and Eagles. We saw a lot of whales. It was a really great experience.

Great Whale Watching Experience - We were on the top deck with Jake, who gave great information through the experience. The photos from Natalie were great. They take photos and give you a QR code for you to get the emails sent later. Sherry and Gordon did not crash the boat and got us there and back, after finding whales. I didn't expect to need to boat 45 minutes to find whales, but had I known that, I still would have gone. They had a lead on humpbacks that was old, but they still tried, and fell back to a known orca position when the humpbacks didn't show. It was cold up top, but I loved it.

Whale Watching on 30 June Vancouver - The trip was very memorable because a humpback whale came right up to the boat and “bumped” it. This was their way of saying hello. The crew said this was so unusual that they were quite overcome as well as us.

I want to see Orcas.... Check!! - Great experience!! My goal was to see Orcas, we accomplished that within the first 45 minutes of the tour. We were able to follow a pod of 5 orcas for about 20 minutes. Our naturalist on board was Liam, he cracked me up. He answered all of our questions, no matter how dumb, and gave us really great information about all the different types of animals and fish we may see. We also saw a humpback whale, harbor seals with a baby, and an elephant seal. Once we saw the orcas, to me, everything else was gravy. They also provide you with professional pictures taken by their staff on your tour at no additional charge!!!! This is great customer service, it let us focus on seeing things with our eyes instead of through a stupid cell phone camera.

A must experience trip - This was a 3 man crew with loads of experience and knowledge. Liam has a great sense of humor and takes amazing photos! Callum was so intelligent and answered everyone’s questions with enthusiasm! So much knowledge he really knows his stuff! Also incredibly nice and patient. Captain George kept us all safe and it was a really smooth ride. We saw multiple whales since sea lions some purposes bald eagle just amazing wildlife! I highly recommend this crew and this tour because not only are they super nice and knowledgeable, but part of the proceeds from their tickets go to charities promoting conservation of wildlife wailing, etc.

Great tour! - Great overall trip. Was a lot boring at first during the ride to go find some whales. Once we got to the right spot it was spectacular. They stayed out longer than the tour time because the whales seemed to be performing us. Then we caught another one doing the tail slapping which made us even later. That was just fine with everyone on the tour. Jake has a great sense of humor and kept everyone interested and entertained during the tour.
