Baleines & Faune Marine: Croisière Inoubliable à Couper le Souffle!

Le capitaine et l'équipage étaient extrêmement gentils! Nous avons pu regarder quelques galles, malheureusement, vous ne pouvez pas prédire leur saison ni où elles vont être. Vraiment la peine! Le bateau était très bon aussi - café, thé, snacks, salle de bain, assis à l'extérieur et à l'extérieur.

J'ai pris la tournée et je me suis tellement amusé avec mes parents et d'autres frères et sœurs! Nous avons vu plusieurs baleines comme promis! A pris plusieurs photos des énormes aigles et quand nous sommes rentrés à la maison, ma mère a dit qu’elle le suspendrait. Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir et je le dirai à tous les enfants de l'école et ils seront en gelée. Fortement recommandé pour tout le monde!

Super voyage, excellente vue sur la bulle de baleine à bosse se nourrissant près du rivage. Croisière vraiment agréable. Merci capitaine Jesse et son équipage.

Une si belle tournée - vu tant d’aigles - phoques et baleines - l’équipage est super gentil - je le recommande vivement à tout le monde.

Jesse et Mélanie ont rendu ce voyage très amusant. Nous avons adoré découvrir des paysages incroyables, de magnifiques aigles à tête blanche et des baleines majestueuses. Jesse s'est assuré que nous puissions avoir une vue magnifique sur les baleines à bosse. C'était tellement excitant à voir. Merci Jesse et Mélanie d'avoir montré à mes amis certaines des choses étonnantes qui font la réputation de ketchikan! !

Good: Boat crew/guide, land and pier guide, Car transportation, communication - all great. Bad: The season should really end at some point and that should be before September. Though we felt very safe and comfortable, i do feel like a bit jibbed out of my money; they were squeezing out one more tour and we felt it. We booked September land and sea adventure, and unfortunately the sea part was disappointing b/c we paid the same price someone earlier in the season would have paid for a lot more. Earlier in the season there are much higher chances of spotting whales, seeing seals and eagles (per the guides themselves). By September most, if not all, pods of whales have left, seals are scarce and eagles are no longer surrounding the waters the boat navigates around (per the guides themselves). Additionally, we were made aware that earlier in the season the team even throws fish guts into the water to attract birds of prey, that ended a couple of weeks before we went (per the guides themselves). The land tour was nice very informative, at our own pace, as my family was the only group, but the biggest inconvenience is the bear viewing is from a distance, and that's because you do not actually enter Herring Cove or Herring Cove boardwalk. The viewing is basically done from a residential neighborhood, dead end street across from the park, its a popular spot as many tours take their guests there. And maybe it was my mistake for understanding the land tour included, for the price paid, actually entering into Herring Cove, so this was a huge let down. Fully knowing this, i would have rather paid for the entrance into Herring Cove. The Totem tour was interesting, but also dull, not much more to do there but walk around and see Totems, the wood makers shed was also closed when we arrived, so we just saw the totems used the bathroom and left. closing: i had really, really high hopes for this adventure given the amazing reviews, and again the people are great, caring and knowledgeable and just amazing folks, but the actual tours are not worth the price paid, at least not in September.

We were disappointed that our cruise cancelled our ports and excursion. So when they confirmed that Ketchikan was still on the plan, we were eager to find a fun excursion. Came across this one and from the beginning to the end, the crew was so kind and accommodating. They were determined to find areas with whales and we did see them despite the weather. We also saw seals lounging around. Highly recommend this company

LeeAnne was a very knowledgeable and talented guide. Small group tour allowed for more accommodating discussions and site stops for wildlife watching. Would definitely recommend

Well worth the time and money. Leanne & Jake were out standing, made sure to let us know about the area, and kept a good look out for whales. I would highly recommend this tour and the staff to anyone. Was a great time.

Max was a fantastic guide and knew the best spots. We saw the salmon still trying to swim upstream to spawn as well as seals and eagles. He had the best timing as the rain showers would diminish when we stopped and would start back up as we were moving to the next site. Totem parks was especially beautiful. We would book with this group again.
