We enjoyed this whale watching tour, our captain Mark was very experienced, knowledgeable and truly wanted to give us the best experience to see whales and other marine animals. We saw otters, seals, sea lions, bald eagles and best of all a family of orcas. Everyone checking us in were friendly, fast, and helpful. I would highly recommend this whale watching tour!
Response from Host , Apr 2022
Ellen_M,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review! We're glad that you found Mark to be experienced, helpful, and informative! The experience of being able to see so many species of marine wildlife in the Salish Sea is incredible, and we're happy that you're recommending us. Thank you again, and we hope to see you on a Prince of Whales tour again in the future!

My friend and I had such a wonderful time! The workers there were so nice and welcoming. You can definitely tell that the boat driver cares so much about the whales!

Our guide Rush was amazing. We saw 3 different groups of transient orcas and lots of seals. It was an incredible trip and worth every penny!
Enjoyable tour

We got to see 2 killer whales along with a humpback. The water was like a lake and ride was smooth. Good tour guide, very informative
Excellent trip for a family with teenagers who enjoy a little excitement

We had such a fun time. The zodiak ride itself was a blast and exciting for my teenage sons. As an added bonus, we witnessed a female humpback and her calf feeding and surfacing. The guide was excellent! Very adept at handling the boat and was knowledgeable and respectful of the animals in their natural habitat.
