Great day on the water
AMIT_P
, May 2022
The entire experience was excellent. Great communication pre-trip, engaging interactions on board, a very well-designed boat and fortunately it was a sunny day with beautiful blue skies and we saw a group of orcas as well as some bald eagles, sea lions and sea otters. The boat was fast and the wind felt cold so wrap up well. Wind breakers gloves and caps were a welcome offering. All in all a fun morning and a must do in Victoria.

Then we observed bald eagles and a large groups of seals. Dress in layers out in the open ocean it’s frigid they provide great warm equipment. Thanks again Pete and Lily!!!

The crew was wonderful, we saw around 15-17 whales 🐳 and also other habitants of the ocean :) definitely recommend for those who’s having their first time on the island. Please arrive a little bit earlier than check in time if it’s your first time. It took us a while to locate the check in desk as we didn’t quite know where to go.
An amazing experience.

This whale watching trip was absolutely fantastic. We saw humpback whales, an orca, a bald-headed eagle and a lots of other wild life in an amazing environment. The naturalists Russ and Jane provided lots of background and were able to answer all our questions. This company provides a great experience and is taking environmental protection very seriously.
Fabulous experience

Russ, Pete, and Selena were our whale watching tour guides. They did an amazing job of making us comfortable, they kept it lively,and were very informative. They took us 1 1/2 hrs out to chase the only reported whale siting that morning. They displayed passion, commitment, and dedication to their job. My wife and I were on our honeymoon trip, and were rewarded.! Recommend them to anyone.
Fantastic Whale Watching

This was a wonderful experience. The crew was friendly and took the time to talk to you and give you information. They give you jackets and gloves. Light snacks are available for a donation. We were able to see multiple sightings including an Orca. The captain went out of his way to take us to where the Orca was spotted and stayed there longer than other boats in the area. It extended out trip time, but everyone one aboard thought it was worth staying. We all had a wonderful time playing lookout and telling the crew where we saw the whales. Would highly recommend this cruise.
Very good

The trip was amazing from start to finish, helped by a sighting of a humpback, and two pods of orcas at close quarters, which was an incredible and memorable experience. However, even without these highlights, it was a great morning out on the water seeing plenty of other wildlife, including bald headed eagles, seals, and a sea otter. Captain Rod and Cydney provided friendly, enthusiastic and expert information and knowledge, as well as happily extending the trip to give us all longer to enjoy and marvel at the orcas while we were amongst them, all of which made this trip a major highlight of our vacation in Western Canada. I would thoroughly recommend Eagle Wing tours which, from the research I did and my experience on this trip, I believe offer the best whale watching experience in Victoria.

I'm very happy we choose Eagle Wing Whale Watching tours and the 12-passenger speed boat. The speedboat ride itself was exhilarating, on top of seeing orcas, a humpback, sea lions, and a sea otter. This tour company was well worth paying a little more for, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Eagle Wing Tours was FANTASTIC. We actually went out twice in one day with this same outfitter. The captain of one our boats was one of the owners. Everyone was SO knowledgeable and kind, and genuinely LOVED what they were doing. They were clearly committed to the experience. I highly recommend this experience with this company if you want to see amazing Orcas in British Columbia. ENJOY. It's majestic.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
