The company was top notch from the get go. They were very professional, kind, safe, and welcoming. The one guide (Jim?) was excellent and incredibly knowledgeable. I was a bit blown away by the amount of information he was able to give us. The captain (Jo?) was also wonderful. They had heard about another sighting near the end of our planned trip and went around the whole boat to ask if anyone had any appointments and to see if it would be ok to take a bit of extra time so we could all check out a new animal sighting. Obviously, that's a big yes from most unless you've got a plane to catch! While I know we can't predict nature, we DID get several really cool whale sightings, we got to see some lunge feeding of a humpback and some neat behaviour from a family of transient orca. Obviously, Race Rocks meant an excellent view of the sea lions (and a nose full too, blech!). All in all, an incredible trip with a great company!

It was an excellent trip . The staff are very friendly and professional.The office staff ,Alexa and Sam greeted us enthusiastically and were very helpful. The naturalist are extremely knowledgeable and helpful, it was unbelievable the information Jim provided, thank you. JoAnne was also very knowledgeable and helpful. Excellent crew…they anticipated the whale feeding on a bait ball, it was such a thrill to watch..well worth going with this company.

Dave is very knowledgeable and gave us a great commentary. We saw humpbacks and loads of sea lions etc. While we didn't see Orcas we enjoyed the experience and recommend it.

We saw many whales, several sea lions and even a puffin. It was a bit cool and rainy so it was nice to have a heated cabin. Guides were super friendly and knowledgeable. Well worth the money.
