Awesome Orca Magic with Raj! - Thank you to Raj, the more awesome captain ever, for the adventure of a lifetime!!!! We got to see orca TWICE!! Raj wasn't only an incredible driver, but as he is a biologist too, he taught us all about the wildlife and ecosystem, ensuring we had a deep understanding of the magic before us. He told us about his marine research and it was just so beyond cool to learn from him. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for fulfilling my millennial Free Willy dreams! Bucket list FULFILLED!

Amazing whale watching experience! - We took the Aug 19, 2026 12:30pm Zodiak tour with Mark, @markmallesonphotography. It was a wonderful experience. Mark was fantastic, he truly cares about the wildlife and the safety and enjoyment of his passengers. We learned so much and witnessed some amazing and unusual wildlife behavior. Best of all, I got to see and capture “Jack” the Orca breaching. His pod had killed a seal and were messing around with a humpback whale. Stunning!

Perfect morning in the Salish Sea - Amazing tour, Raj our captain and guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about whales. He was also very conscientious about not over stimulating them - we viewed the whales only when there were just a few boats near by. The seats and the ride in the boat is fabulous ! Exhilarating and relaxing all at the same time !!

Nice but pricey - Saw a small pod of killer whales however very far away, I understand it’s nature ect but felt we could have gotten closer, didn’t see anything else. Overall was great to see orcas in the wild but the price of the trip is too expensive
