    Whales were hard to find, but nice boat and great crew

    We took two trips with the Anchorage crew. The first time, we went all over and found no whales at all, which the crew said was extremely unusual for February (the number they quoted was 95% success rate). The second time, we had to go...More

    Maybe next time.

    Informative and friendly staff. Unfortunately we did not see any whales on our trip but I'm still satisfied. I would do it again, my friend has been 4,5 times and has seen Whales on every occasion except this time.

    No whales, no compensation, do not spend your money here!

    We went for whale watching with the whole family, spend 5 times 69 dollars. I thought that 85% change to see "something" would be just the right number to not garantee whales and to convince costumers to take the change to go on a trip....More

    Incredible!

    One of the most amazing 4 hours of my life! We saw about 20 whales. Some followed the boat for a long time. The water is much calmer than other whale watching trips I've been on.
