Trip is not 3.5hrs, so be careful of plans afterward
This trip is not 3.5hrs. It was 5.5, although they were late in returning so it was more like 6 from start to finish. They didn’t let us know we’d be late coming back, so some of our plans were ruined. Just be aware.

We were able to spot some him back whales and seals on our trip. The crew were very knowledgeable about the different animals, I especially enjoyed learning about their natural behaviors in the wild.

Excellent experience
5 stars from start to finish. Kind crew, easy ride, fun time in Victoria. So well organized! Thank you

Easy travel mode
Convenient travel mode between Victoria and Seattle but I'm glad I only took it one way (flew into the Victoria airport from San Francisco). There was not much scenic value in economy with the spray on the window and the route is far offshore. Although you might see some marine life, you will go by too fast to see much (I am used to slower Alaska ferries where there are smaller channels and lots to see.) Many window seats that appeared to be booked online were vacant. Bring something to do as it's a long ride. The staff in Victoria was very friendly. U.S. Customs was smooth. There were taxis lined up at the Seattle dock.

Fun time
Nice experience, suggest upgrading seating choice instead of economy seating. Definitely go to upper deck and stand outside to view scenery

Great experience
Great experience. We visited protection island and saw plenty of seals and sea birds. As whales are wild animals there was no guarantee to see them, and indeed we were about to give up. But the crew persevered and it paid off!

Whale watching Tour in Puget Sound
The trip can last from 4-6 hours depending on the wildlife. Ours lasted 6 hours, which is fine, very comfortable and relaxing. We weren’t having any luck finding whales, but the Captain was notified that a large humpback was spotted back where we were. So the boat turned back into the sound and we got real close to the huge spouting humpback! Very exciting and worth it to go back and spend more time out there. Bring warm clothes if you want to stand out on the bow. They have decent food and drinks on board.
