We had an once in a lifetime experience in majestic Alaska watching the whales. We had perfect weather & calm waters. The whales were being very playful & put on quiet the show for us. We saw a whale breaching and fins waving. And multiple tale flips. Alea and Ash were very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Captain Justin took us to a great spot with multiple whales for us to observe. The boat was new & very comfortable. Would recommend them to anyone & plan on using them on our next adventure took Alaska.
Great Whale Watching Trip

Had a great whale watching experience. We saw many whales that included two bubble nets and a breach. The bus ride to the marina was filled with a lot of interesting facts about Juneau from the bus driver and jokes to make us laugh. Parking is difficult to find that allows you to stay for the length of the trip.
Awesome Whale Watch Trip!

We had a great time on the whale watch tour with Alaska Tales. We saw humpbacks, orcas, and eagles! The entire trip was professionally ran and they made sure we were safe and comfortable.
