Traveler reviews
Great day with a wonderful crew
Went out with the crew on 3 July and the experience was excellent . The crew Wilma, Tobin and Belv provided great insight of the habitat and habits of the whales and Orcas. The team is friendly and accommodating. A Shout out to the new trainee Kiefer who is super friendly and passionate about the trade and he will do well and be a great naturalist. We saw a family of Orcas , seals and Humpback whale - happy day ! Highly recommended !

Really Meaningful Adventure!!
Please go out to sea with Prince of Whales! What a meaningful way to support their mission of marine life conservation. I went on a rainy July afternoon in Vancouver with a small crew. We saw a glorious Orca family (shoutout to Tasu and her pups/grown kids!!), seals, and sea lions. I had never seen whales in their natural habitat. Growing up in Texas, I was devastated to have seen Shamu in captivity for entertainment. The Prince of Whales crew of naturalists showed such reverence for marine life, respecting their boundaries and sharing their majesty with us. Shoutout to Wilma for sharing her overflowing expertise and passion for marine life on deck during the Orca surfacings, shoutout to Victor for his hospitality (giving me bags and ginger candy when I felt seasick), and shoutout to Tobin for infusing lightness into the trip. Thank you to the whole crew!! Be sure to bring many layers (it gets very cold and windy), bring anything you need for seasickness, and enjoy the hot cocoa on board!
