Great experience

Published on Oct, 2024

Fortunately, it had stopped raining by the time we got on the bus! We had arrived in Juneau on a cruise ship and the representative and the bus were easy to locate. We were taken straight to the Marina with the bus driver providing an interesting commentary for the short journey. We boarded the boat and within a short time after a brief safety chat, we were seeing whales! The biologist Josh was very knowledgable and Captain TJ was a friendly personable guy with a wealth of knowledge. It was a great way to spend an afternoon with two professionals and I would highly recommend this company.

Amazing experience! Exactly as advertised!

Published on Sep, 2024

Amazing experience! This tour was exactly as advertised: Easy to access from the cruise ship, on time, knowledgeable driver. Small boat with great captains! They were knowledgeable and entertaining. Of course the best part was actually seeing several whales! We would highly recommend this whale watching tour!

Great excursion!

Published on Sep, 2024

The bus driver, Cedar, provided a lot of great information about Juneau, and Josh and TJ made the boat tour really enjoyable! We saw orcas and humpback whales, and we actually had a sunny day which is rare for that time of year. Also, the fact that the tour was limited to 20 people was a huge bonus.

September Whale watch

Published on Sep, 2024

TJ and were awesome and we felt very safe under their guidance. We saw many humpback whales after a 30min float to where the whales were feeding. The bus driver, Cedar, was a wealth of information about the area. If you like to support small businesses, these are the folks to support!

There are not enough good words to describe how WONDERFUL this whale watching was!

Published on Sep, 2024

Our crew members were FABULOUS and so patient and DETERMINED to find whales for us to see...they did not disappoint! Great personalities and a good driver of the boat! My friends and I squealed with delight and loved our trip!
