Traveler reviews
No killer whale or whale sightings, no trip.
With all the tech and supporting vessels throughout the planned travel area of these tour ships, they should have a better than 70% chance of knowing if Killer whale (KWh) or whale (Wh) sightings will occur on any given trip. Instead most of the time what you get is a choreographed trip of Oo's and Ah's of non-target species to fill the time. All knowing WHs and Ws are nowhere to be found. To me that's being dishonest.
Very enjoyable
While you can never guarantee whale sightings, our captain went above and beyond to get us a quick glimpse of a humpback though he refused to resurface after some 10 - 15 minutes. She was very knowledgeable and provided interesting facts of the area. The crew was friendly and to include free water and coffee is rather unusual but nice.
Highly recommended
Wonderful staff at check in. Knowledgeable and accommodating captain & crew! Saw harbor seals, mountain goats, eagles, otters and a whale as well as breathtaking scenery!
Best experience of our Alaska trip!
One of the best experiences of our trip. The crew was awesome. So helpful & knowledgeable about the area and the animals! I highly recommend Major Marine Tours. We saw mountain goats, a humpback whale and her calf, a sea otter who was joined by his “girlfriend” for cuddle time, two black bears, sea lions and several species of birds. The scenic views at every turn are indescribable!
A trip to remember
We did the 6 hour tour and it was incredible! Captain Mike was an amazing guide and informed everyone of so many facts about sea life. The lunch provided was fantastic. This was such a great experience!
