It was a wonderful windy rainy day! These two conditions helped to create a memorable experience that included seeing more waterfalls in one place than I ever have. Wow!!!

Glad we booked this tour & would book again. It’s a smaller boat so there’s no large bus groups to share with. Lot’s of info and stops for photo opportunities, even saw a baby seal. Free tea & coffee. Lovely staff too!

Nice 2 hour boat trip with awesome sights. The boat went under one waterfall and those of us on the front deck got wet - it was fun. The day we traveled it had rained all night and in the morning so there were waterfalls all over the sound. The narration was informative and not overly talkative. The vessel wasn’t as large as some of the other tour providers which made it feel less crowded.
