Dress warm and wear comfortable shoes. Be prepared to see some beautiful scenery. We were lucky enough to see 12 whales.

Very lucky tour while we saw a number of humpback whales, amongst them 2 mothers with calfs. Beautiful seeing them play in the seaweed. Very informative host Cathy, who’s passion for marine life was very clear. Lots of pics and video’s and free access to Cathies pics on flickr next week. On thr boat out on the water it hets chilly so be prepared. The boat is covered but best views are outside.

The experience was not very positive. Unfortunately, the staff makes a big difference on these excursions. The captain was very kind. The girl who managed the group was very, very annoyed. We excluded two girls who could not do anything inside the boat. We even put the little girl in the stroller who was sleeping in the covered part of the boat; we were 10 meters away from her and, of course, we could see her, and she scolded us that we could not! I understand the safety concerns, but this is really excessive. At this point, you cannot state that it is a tour suitable for all ages! More flexibility is needed. In addition to this, the included photos are truly useless... 4 poorly taken photos that are even better with a phone! The captain of the boat was very kind... the girl might need to change jobs and not be in contact with the public! It is not for her!

Professional staff provided interesting information about the habitat and behaviors of the orca pod we came upon. Epic. Wonderful support in offering extra layers of clothing and warm drinks. Great safety overview. Staff was very congenial and approachable.

The captain and naturalists are great and explain things really well/are very friendly. It can we cold/windy on the water even if it’s warm in the city so definitely bring layers (they have extras if needed too). Free hot drinks was lovely. Saw Orca mom and baby/2 others for a good 30 mins and a bald eagle on my trip.

What a wonderful team. We didn’t actually see any whales on this day but this happens, that’s nature, but the staff were still amazing with lots of knowledge on the wildlife. We saw seals and eagles. Staff very informative and answered any questions we had. Also have been offered to go back at a reduced price.

We were fortunate and were able to see Humpbacks and Orcas. Once spotted we waited around for them to resurface. The crew showed such patience and determination for us to see more than a glimpse.
