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.

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.

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.

Beware of FRS Clipper deception when you book on their website! There is no place to put in the word or words for a discount. I clicked on the day trip to Victoria on their website but did not receive the services of transportation and entrance fee to Buschart gardens. You have to choose which seat in what area and at what price AND make sure all the services I clicked on are included in ALL the instructions! Very poor customer services! When I called and questioned this, she told me it should have been in the detail on the email. So it is up to me to go through the email with all the instructions on travel documents etc. and make sure everything they promised on the choice I choose is listed?? Very disappointed.

Comfortable seats, even in economy. Check in is very well organized; staff are friendly. Select a window seat for better viewing. Some seats have tables for dining or laptops.

I have to 1st say that there is no food or drinks actually in the waiting area let alone free WiFi as promised! The boat ride was fun & engaging! However the other guests took up all the inside seats leaving me to stand or sit outside! I didn’t see what I paid for one bit! It was extremely expensive & disappointing as someone who has severe CPTSD I’m now got a major upset stomach & my legs can barely hold me up! The food I purchased was excellent except now today I’m literally got food poisoning!!! The gummy bears taste like anmonia! I keep seeing & hearing others boast about the Orcas & Puffins, so why couldn’t we go looking for them yesterday ? There are plenty of others spotting them ! I wanted to initially go on my birthday next month however if it’s going to be the same thing again I can’t handle the stress let alone rudeness of the crowded boat & not being able to sit ever as I’m legally disabled! Do better & respect woman such as myself as I’m a local google guide! People rely on my honest opinions !

On the Seattle side, they have 1 person checking in 500 people. Elderly people standing around needing to sit for a break because the wait to board is insane.

Only Wildlife and Whale Watching Tour Leaving from Seattle
We did the whale watching tour in partnership with Taproot Travel Co and had a wonderful experience! We appreciated all of the knowledge shared about the local Indigenous communities, especially enjoying the stories about canoe building and foraging of different herbs and flowers for tea. We also had the pleasure of seeing a local pod of Grey Whales!

Humpbacks and Orcas Zodiac with Cam
We had a fantastic morning whale watching with SpringTide Tours in Victoria on Saturday, July 25, and Cam made the trip even better! Cam was friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared fascinating information about Vancouver Island, the tides, humpback whales, and orcas, and happily answered all of our questions. His enthusiasm made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. The highlight of the trip was watching two humpback whales, including one that put on an unforgettable show! It breached completely out of the water, repeatedly waved its giant pectoral fin at us, and even lifted its tail as if it were saying goodbye. It was truly one of those magical wildlife moments our family will never forget. We were hoping to see a bit more wildlife overall, but that’s nature—and seeing that humpback perform made the trip absolutely worthwhile. If you’re booking with SpringTide, definitely ask for Cam. He was an outstanding guide, and we’d happily go out with him again!
