Nous commençons notre visite du Pier 69 le long de l'historique Alaskan Way à quelques pas du célèbre marché de Pike Place.
Parti du quai 69, sur le front de mer du centre-ville de Seattle, le navire commence son voyage en direction d’Elliott Bay. En quittant le quai, vous aurez une vue dégagée sur la ligne d'horizon de Seattle, avec l'emblématique Space Needle se tenant à droite. Les gratte-ciel de la ville bordent le rivage, et le front de mer animé s’efface progressivement au loin. C’est un début de voyage tout en douceur et en paysages, offrant de superbes possibilités de photos et une perspective unique de Seattle depuis l’eau.

Joining the group is definitely worthy, save lots of time and money. With their high technology cruise, they have better chances of finding the whales or killer whales.there are many Seal too.
We saw at least 7 orcas. The naturalist was was well educated, easy to listen too and very personable. I'd go again! I'd go again for sure!
This was a very well run company. Everything went smoothly. The boat is brand new. The food was good. The photos they provide for free afterwards are also amazing. Highly recommend. We saw a pot of orcas consistently for probably a good hour.
Saw limited wildlife. Organization was good. Friendly staff and customers. Ship was clean, comfortable and easy to navigate. One problem: I was at the railing with other travelers and a male staff member opened the door to the bridge and started yelling rudely at us to get back. We moved back from the railing confused and he continued yelling at us to get back but motioning with his hand to move down the deck to get out of his view. He yelled he was tracking something. I was the one who had paid for this cruise and was tracking something and had every right to be at the railing watching the wildlife, but even if he needed to see it should have been done in a clear and professional manner. This one interaction soured the entire trip for me :(
The tour was excellent. We got great opportunities to view wildlife throughout trip. There were some other small craft in the area pursuing and agitating the whales and it was great to see our boat crew doing their best to discourage the illegal behavior. We appreciate how seriously they take their role in protecting these beautiful creatures. The crew was warm and engaging and the entire experience was very well run. Would definitely recommend!
This was an awesome tour! Really well organized, the boat left on time and the naturalist on board, Xack, was so extremely passionate and knowledgeable about the orcas and humpback whales! We saw so many pods of orcas and 2 different humpback whales. I'd highly recommend this tour - worth the money!
We had an absolutely amazing watch. The first half was pretty slow as we ferried out, but once we got out we were able to see a family of SEVEN whales hunt and celebrate their meal. It was stunning! Definitely pack a jacket because it was chilly in the open water/when the boat was moving (even though it is 80 degrees and sunny on the shore today). Would recommend!!!
My family had a wonderful trip out and we got to see lots of Orcas. We were told that our trip was a great one for the amount of time we saw the Orcas. We saw other whales and we managed to take lots of photos and videos. Our naturalist answered our questions and was knowledgeable as you would expect. Brilliant trip and we really enjoyed ourselves.
This was an amazing experience. The ship that we were on was brand new and in excellent shape. The on-board naturalist was very knowledgeable, and we saw three separate pods of whales. Highly recommended.
Amazing trip! We were starting to get a bit discouraged not finding whales but the crew and Zach went out of their way and extended the trip in order to get to a spot with confirmed sightings.
