Excursión de 4 horas a ballenas y vida silvestre desde Campbell River

We had a great morning on the water, although it was very foggy and rained a bit when we started it cleared up and our guide Jack was great and managed to find us some great sightings of several humpbacks. We also saw sea lions and eagles and did pursue a flock of dolphins but unfortunately they had moved on when we got to the location. Free parking and home made snack on the boat was very appreciated!

The weather didn't cooperate, so the company changed to a covered boat instead of a Zodiac, making the experience much more comfortable than it would have been. Our guide, Johanna, was fabulous and made the trip a lot of fun. We enjoyed the whirlpools around Ripple Rock, saw a humpback and calf, and at the end, she took us off the usual route to see eagles and sea lions. It was misty and rained, but despite the conditions, we had a lovely time.

Had a wonderful zodiac tour, lots of wildlife, lots of whales, killer whales, dolphins, bald Eagles and seals. Our guide, Zoe, knew a lot about the bath full of wildlife, fun and enthusiastic! Everything was very well arranged! Nice tour.

It was a great thing. The four hours flew by. I would not do this activity with younger children.

It was a great trip with sightings of sea lions and even orcas!

Great experience with Mel our zodiac boat guide. Always unpredictable when looking for wildlife. Managed to see a humpbacked whale, along with sea lions, seals and golden eagles. The best part is the laws here prevent whale chasing. Each company keeps in touch so they know where to look.

The captain was super friendly and had an excellent sense of humor! We felt very safe in the boat with him. We saw a group of approximately 15-20 orcas, we were very lucky and it was spectacular!! We also saw a black bear with her cub. We saw many sea lions. It was THE BEST DAY of our entire trip!!!

One whale ghosted us. The other one was shy and didn‘t want to show his tale. But that didn‘t matter because we had such a great time! Our captain Bex was fantastic! We loved our tour from start to end. We were able to see whales, sea lions, seals and quite a few birds. Bex gave a lot of informations, identified the whales and was able to name them and she made it a fun tour by doing donuts. All in all it was amazing and we‘d do it again in a heartbeat! Thanks to the whole team!

What a great experience! From start to finish, we were impressed with the friendliness, expertise and organization of every staff member. We were greeted upon arrival and directed to a very comfortable waiting area with nearby bathroom facilities. Getting dressed in warm gear was easy and we were soon on our way. The zodiac was very comfortable and all 12 passengers had a great view. Zoe, our captain and guide, was very knowledgeable and provided lots of interesting information about the whales as well as anecdotes about the areas we travelled through. During our tour we saw seals, orcas and humpbacks and Zoe answered any questions we had. We were even able to listen to some of the whale “conversations”. Zoe angled the boat to ensure everyone could see and take photos. Once we returned to the dock, she debriefed the group, showing us the route we had followed on the map, Although I have gone on a number of whale watching tours in the past, this was my favourite . We are so happy we chose Campbell River Whale Watching and Adventure Tours.

This trip was fantastic! Not only did we see four whales feeding and a colony of seals, but the fast inflatable boat made the ride itself thrilling. The scenery around Campbell River’s islands and waterways was stunning, and our captain’s commentary was both fun and informative (plus the cookies were a nice touch!). A brilliant four hours I’d highly recommend.
