Traveler reviews
Amazing
Best day ever! We saw orcas and humpbacks. and the guides Belen, Petra and Dawson were fantastic and knew everything. Free photos too. 10/10, go!
Overall good experience
The staff and captain did their best to find marine life! The ride was good, even for a choppy ride out. The staff is very informative and friendly! We were slightly disappointed with our views. I do understand they have to maintain a distance for the boat. The whales just didn't cooperate for a good view/show. The staff did their best to get us to see the sea lions, orcas, and humpbacks. Sightings are not guaranteed. The staff photography - meh...
Whale Watching in Vancouver
Extraordinary experience! We went whale watching while we were in Vancouver. We saw Humpback whales, killer whales (orca’s) and harbour porpoise. Our naturalist Caitlin did an incredible job of walking us through entire process! The rest of the crew, Sebastian, Fox, Steven and Roman were great. Overall the experience was fantastic and I’ll certainly be returning on my next trip to Vancouver.
Fantastic Whale watching adventure
We had a fantastic experience on this whale watching tour. The boat was comfortable and spacious, with plenty of room to take pictures, and the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the trip. My husband and I were incredibly lucky to see a humpback whale, killer whales, sea lions, seals, a bald eagle, and even an otter! The highlight was definitely seeing the killer whales. They were very close to the boat, so the engines were switched off, allowing us to experience them in complete silence and actually hear their sounds. It was absolutely surreal and something we’ll never forget. The company also took professional photos during the tour, which we received afterwards. This is a lovely bonus and a great way to remember such a special experience. We would highly recommend booking this tour. It was truly unforgettable and one of the highlights of our trip!
Truly special experience....
Truly special experience. A few hours out on the water. Saw two orcas, a whole group of seals and sea lions, and a bunch of humpback whales! At one point we were surrounded on all sides by humpbacks. Incredibly special. They're beautiful. Sublime honestly. And the wnaturalists on board provided a ton of really cool information about the animals, answered questions, were super friendly. Really great! On our ride we had Tamsin, Fox, and Caitlin who did an awesome job.
