Amazing and convenient experience!
We had an amazing experience with this tour. It was well worth it! We saw two pods of orcas mingling within 20 min of leaving the port, it was about 10 orcas at the same time! This was followed by a gray whale sighting later on with an added bonus of a sealion feeding sighting. We spent ample mount of time with the wildlife, giving everyone the chance to observe and take pictures. Nothing felt rushed. Whole tour took about 4 hours. The crew was amazing, communicated well. The naturalist on board, Zack, was amazing. He was very informative, took the time to answer everyone's questions, and interacted with kids really well. The vessel was quite new, spacious, and well maintained. It was also very clean, including the restrooms. Highly recommend for everyone. Including kids!

You can check your bags...
You can check your bags early in the day if needed and retrieve them upon arrival and entry into the customs area. You can also have them hold a carry on early in the day and pick it up prior to boarding. If you check a bag, you are the last group to disembark.

A fantastic trip!
Totally worthwhile. We had an excellent tour of the Sounds while the team searched for whales. They didn't give up and even delayed our return to ensure that we had plenty of time to watch the orcas. It was just magic. The crew then sent us pictures that are outstanding to remember our visit. Great trip.

It was fine. We had the best seats and I'm glad we did. It's more like a public ferry than a pleasure boat. It annoyed me that in comfort class with the most expensive tickets, there was a person taking orders for snacks but it was so slow the gally was out of most of the snacks by the time she got to us 2 hours into a 3 hour ride. This is a very practical means of transportation. Highly recommend for that.

We had a great boat trip with Lauren and the crew. The boat was lovely, clean, great facilities and fast!! Lauren was excellent, clearly loved Whales and was always sharing her knowledge. We saw Orca, Grey and Humpback whales and the captain was keen to try and make sure we maximised our time. Would definitely recommend!!

Outstanding tour. We saw a pod of orcas! Also a gray whale, a bald eagle, and seals and sea lions. Great naturalist and they send you photos afterward - at no extra charge.

Highlight of my trip to Seattle
This was the highlight of Seattle trip for me. The operation was smooth and the staff were kind and knowledgeable. We saw so many killer whales and 1 humpback. I could see the naturalist how excited he was and love what he is doing. The ride was so calm and great view in everywhere. I did tour with my daughter and she enjoyed as well.

Orcas
The whales were elusive so the captain took the boat further into the sound to find them! Amazing experience, wonderful crew, nice boat, and beautiful scenery and wildlife.

Whales galore!
Definitely bring layers! I was peeling them off while we were stopped and putting them back on when were were crusing! The Conservationist was excellent and very personable! Many of us were outside with him asking questions and he readily answered. Very knowledgeable! I learned a good deal! Very worth ever penny I paid. We saw 3 pods of Orcas, and a humpback whale. We also witnessed an Orca pod hunt down and attack a porpoise.
