It was an amazing experience, next time I visit I will definitely go again! Loved it!!!
Thank you for your 5-star review! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your tour with us! We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
This August our family vacation to Victoria started with a half-day (4 or so hours) whale watching expedition aboard a catamaran operaated by the Prince of Whales. Our entire family were excited for this adventure. Even though we have regular exposure to Ontario's lakes nothing could prepare us for the sights that we took on on this tour. Our guides were over the top! Amber, Sam and Reid made our 63 nautical mile excursion one to remember. They are brilliant story tellers, who find interesting ways to answer questions drawing upon a wealth of first hand knowledge. They captured excellent photo's along the way and shared them with everyone on board. Seeing a family of Orcas, a small island of seals, an eagle and other wildlife taught me a lot about the importance of understanding and respecting the habitats of all the animals that share the land and the sea. This tour was a highlight for my kids who continue to speak to some of the things they learned on the trip. We took the morning trip and enjoyed a perfect day but remember, you will be on open water so bring layers of clothing, a good camera and they will provide your kids with hot chocolate. Having bathrooms on the catamaran was a pleasant feature that any vacationer might want to consider. Overall, this was brilliant, not at all cheap, but money well spent.

We’re especially happy to hear that your kids are still talking about what they learned on the tour. We love hearing that the experience helped your family learn more about the importance of understanding and respecting marine wildlife and their habitats. Thank you again for choosing Prince of Whales and for your kind recommendation. We hope to welcome your family back for another adventure in the future!
Wonderful trip whale watching with the team from Prince of Whales. The 3 guides shared lots of knowledge with us and took photos of everything we saw so we didn’t need to! We saw loads of Orca whales including mother and baby. We also saw a humpback, sealions and seals. It was a wonderful morning and would highly recommend!

We found booking the tour was really easy and the company provided plenty of pre information to explain what you needed to bring on the trip and what to expect. The boat was large with lots of outdoor and indoor seating as well as two toilets. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly.They provided a detailed safety information to ensure that everyone had a safe trip. Tamsin was so passionate about her subject and provided great commentary as we headed out to sea. She was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We saw two humpbacks feeding and were delighted to experience this magical moment. I would definitely book with The Prince of Whales again.
Thank you for your 5-star review, Susan! We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your tour with us and got to see some amazing humpbacks! What a special memory! It’s also great to hear that our crew made your experience so enjoyable and that you were able to learn more from Tamsin as well. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to her! Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon!
My mother and I first took the Prince of Whalea toue back in May, 2017 when she was visiting from Australia. Though we saw lits of birds, seals and Sea Lions we did not see any whales. She came back to visit me this August 2026, and we saw two Orca whales within the first 30-40 minutes of the tour and a second pod called T49s which had 5-6 Orca whales including a little baby!! Magic!! The crew are so knowledgable and friendly. We are so grateful that we could try again with our past tickets for a small booking fee to see whales 9 years later :)
Thank you for your wonderful review! We are so glad that you and your mother decided to join us again after your first tour back in 2017 to redeem your Whale Sighting Guarantee! What a special experience to return nine years later and see two groups of orcas, including a little baby! That must have been such a magical moment to share with your mom. We’re also so happy to hear that our crew made your experience extra special with their knowledge and friendliness. Thank you again for choosing us and for giving us another chance to share a whale watching adventure with you both. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!
What an experience from Prince of Whales! We saw a pod of 15 Orcas plus two. Special shoutout to Andre - he’s clearly passionate about his work. The way he shared his knowledge about the Orcas, their behavior, and the names of the different pods made the trip so educational and memorable. Thank you all for making this event amazing. 10/10 would do again!

Whole family had a great time. Well worth the cost in my opinion. We it lasted about an hour longer than expected because the whales kept popping up. Really enjoyed Andres narration as well.
