Walvissen spotten + misleidingspastour vanuit Seattle





Beschrijving
De ENIGE Whale Watching tour met hotel pick-up in Seattle! De meeste walviswaarnemingen in de Puget Sound gebeuren in de buurt van de San Juan-eilanden - haal het meeste uit uw dag en verken Deception Pass voor uw walvisspottende cruise! Reis ten noorden van Seattle naar Deception Pass State Park, een verborgen juweeltje in het noordwesten van de Stille Oceaan met uitzichten die wedijveren met onze nationale parken! Verken het oude groeibos tussen de grillige kliffen en geheime kustlijnen voordat u geniet van een seizoensgebonden verzorgde picknicklunch. Na de lunch rijden we naar Anacortes en sluiten we ons aan bij onze partners, Outer Island Excursions, op een 3 uur durende boottocht naar wilde dieren en walvissen spotten. De Outer Island Excursions Captain en Naturalist delen informatie over de Salish Sea terwijl we rond de kanalen varen op zoek naar walvissen en andere wilde dieren. Onze all-inclusive dagtrip met kleine groep is beperkt tot 10 reizigers. We brengen ook diverse snacks, water, en andere koude dranken voor de dag. Maak je nergens zorgen over.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
We beginnen onze tour met ophalen in het centrum van Seattle! Nadat we zijn opgehaald, gaan we naar het noorden.
Onze eerste bestemming is Deception Pass State Park! Bekend als het favoriete staatspark van Washington, zullen we hier wat tijd doorbrengen met het verkennen van paden in het oude bos langs de rotsachtige kustlijn van Whidbey en Fidalgo Islands. Als de getijden laag zijn, zullen we wat tijd doorbrengen met strandjutten!
Na de lunch rijden we naar Anacortes om deel te nemen aan onze partner, Outer Island Excursions, voor hun Wildlife and Whale Watching-tour! We reizen door de Salish Zee op zoek naar orka's, bultruggen, grijzen en dwergvinvissen. We geven prioriteit aan het vinden van orka's op de San Juan-eilanden, maar we komen ook vaak zeehonden, zeeleeuwen, bruinvissen, otters, adelaars en veel zeevogels tegen.
Stap uit in Anacortes en we beginnen de reis terug naar Seattle.
We eindigen onze dag terug in Seattle met teruglevering bij uw hotel!

We had an amazing day tour for whale watching and Deception Pass! Marty was incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the trip, making sure all of our needs were taken care of. He was patient, knowledgeable, and thoughtfully customized the tour for us. The tour was so much fun—we got to enjoy beautiful scenery, take great photos, and the highlight was seeing a whole school of orcas and following them for about an hour. It was truly a memorable experience, and we highly recommend this tour!
The whale watching & deception pass tour was a highlight of our trip. Our guide, Brent, was absolutely amazing. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. The snacks and lunch provided were perfect. The drive to and from deception pass was easy. The whale watching tour was amazing. We watched Orca for at least an hour! I highly recommend Evergreen Escapes!
Matthew was so knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The day was full of incredible views, great stories, orca whales and lots of eagles. It was a perfect day and worth every penny!
This was a great experience to get some history on the area, get in some beautiful views, short hikes and fantastic whale watching adventure! We saw a family of Orcas up close, a gray whale, seals, sea lions and more. The guide, Lindsey, was a lot of fun and willing to do whatever it takes to make everyone comfortable!
The best trip ever! Our tour gide Lindsay was extremely informative and prepared! The lunch was outstanding on the beach! Lindsay was making sure all the day that we get the most from this trip! Saw orkas and elephant seals ! Highly recommended!
Our Whale Watching trip was phenomenal! Lindsay was our travel guide and we so appreciated his depth of knowledge and great sense of humor- he was so attentive to our requests. Deception Pass was stunning and we saw flying bald eagles which was a highlight. We had a lovely lunch by Bowman Bay with a rare sighting of Elsie May, one of 3 elephant seals in the Puget Sound. We then went on the boat for whale watching and fortunately found a pod of orcas which we followed for while as they intermittently surfaced. The boat ride itself, was great - pristine boat and beautiful scenery. Overall, an incredible and memorable trip!
It was a gray and rainy day, as we started our drive to Deception Pass, but Lindsay (with an "a") brought sunshine, laughter and lots of fun information to our group! . It was a long drive from Seattle to Deception Pass, but Lindsay made the time fly by with great questions and fun facts. He was great at including all the guests ... even our eight year old granddaughter. Because of the rain, he did advance research to find some alternative ideas for our time before the whale watching trip. The whale watching boat ride was OK. We did see a pod of Orchas and several bald eagles, but the boat captain appeared to be in a hurry and returned to port a bit sooner than we anticipated.
I can’t wait to share my thrilling experience with this amazing company! A few weeks ago, I dove into three incredible adventures: we trekked through the majestic Mt. Rainier, embarked on an exhilarating whale watching expedition, and marveled at the stunning Snoqualmie Falls in Seattle. Each tour was absolutely unforgettable! Our guides—Hana, Mathew, and Evan—were nothing short of spectacular! Their enthusiasm, energy, and friendliness made the journeys even more enjoyable, and their deep knowledge about the sights truly enriched our experiences. They went all out to make sure everyone felt right at home, creating a warm, family-like vibe that I absolutely loved. I met some fantastic people along the way, and let me tell you, the lunch was a feast! I devoured tasty ginger tofu paired with flavorful purple rice and apples—what a delightful surprise! It was my sister’s first visit to Seattle, and together we made memories that will last a lifetime. I can’t recommend these tours enough! Plus, there’s an awesome 10% discount for returning customers, which is such a sweet bonus!
This was an AMAZING Day!!! Our tour guide Matthew was completely incredible and we had so much fun. The provided lunch was a culinary feast (not a sandwich as expected). We got lots of history while traveling. On the Whale watching, we saw Humpback whales "courting" and then we saw Orcas playing. The Orcas put on quite the show for our tour!! And then on the way back, we saw sea lions on a small island. The homemade cookie at the end of the day was such a sweet touch!
What an incredible assortment of wildlife sightings! It really sounds like you had the best day we could have asked for and I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you so much for taking a chance and choosing to travel with our team. Your support and kind words mean the world to us as a small business, especially because this is a brand new tour for 2024 so your recommendation helps future travelers decide if this will be the right fit for them. Thank you! Kind regards, Kenzi Evergreen Escapes | Seattle, WA
I had an excellent experience on this tour! It exceeded all expectations. I am visiting Seattle for a conference (solo) and booked the trip to ensure I maximized my time here. Our tour guide, Matthew, was very adept and working with our group of 9 to set the pace, tone and areas of focus for our excursions. The vibe was fun but low key- perfect for me! The scenery and wildlife are obviously spectacular. What made this trip was the knowledge of our guide, the organization of the tour company and the special touches along the way. I knew lunch was included but did not expect an elegant lunch of high quality food complete with silverware and table linens. Yummy snacks and drinks were provided throughout the entire day (which just about reached 11 hours round trip). The van was extremely comfortable, as was the whale watching ship. I tend to have motion sickness. I took a non-drowsy dramamine in the morning and never felt sick once. Both the van and the ship were very stable. Extra bonus stars for our impromptu journey at the end of the tour to find Elsie Mae the Elephant Seal in Anacortes. While you can't operate on a wild animal's schedule, the fact that Matthew seized the opportunity to view this special creature speaks volumes to the dedication Evergreen Escapes has to providing enjoyment and education, not just hauling people from Point A to Point B. If I am lucky enough to visit Seattle again I will absolutely be booking with this company.
Thank you so much Kris for taking the time to thoughtfully share about your experience on the Whales and Wildlife Watching Tour with Matthew this summer! This trip offers such a unique opportunity to get out and explore both the natural landscapes and the scenic waterways around the Salish Sea and I am so happy to hear that you were able to experience all of that and more! Thank you for trusting us with a full day of your trip to Washington State. We truly look forward to hosting you again the next time you come out to Seattle!
