This was an awesome excursion out the Juneau cruise port. We picked this tour based on great reviews and being a great value. It was not booked through the cruise ship but that wasn’t a problem at all. Our day started by being picked up just outside the ship at the end of the gang plank in a modern tour bus. The driver, Chris, gave us an informative ride through town pointing out points of interest along the way to the boat dock. We were greeted by our naturalist, Tess, who narrated our ride out to look for whales. Her extensive knowledge of the wildlife was interesting and informative. Captain Dalton knew exactly where to give us the best views of Humpback Whales with a few more rare surprises along the way (Orcas and Stellar Sea lions). Deckhand Corey kept everyone happy with snacks and drinks included in the adventure. When wildlife was sited, the boat would stop or slow so everyone could go out on the front and back decks to watch and take pictures if desired but there were great views from inside the cabin through large windows. The boat was a very modern vessel with amenities other boats can’t compete with like heated enclosed cabin, comfortable padded seating, large windows and 2 roomy heads (bathrooms). I highly recommend this tour operator!

The crew Jon,Dale Morgan were wonderful. The boat was nice and clean and very comfortable. We saw a lot of whales,sea lions and eagles. I have a mobility device and it was very well taken care of during our tour and the seating was easy for me to get in and out of.

Amazing crew of Dalton, Cory and Nic! They made sure we were comfortable and were quick to point out all the whales- yes whales. Orca and so so many humpback. You will not regret this tour. Even our driver Chris shared places to eat and shop and little bits of info about Juneau.
