Cruise Resurrection Bay and Kenai Fjords National Park in search of orca whales, distinguishable by their prominent dorsal fins and fascinating social behavior.

The weather did not cooperate, but that didn’t put a damper on the trip. Captain Laura was very informative! The deck hands were friendly and accommodating! We saw two pods of orca’s, humpback, sea lions, otters, puffins, and birds. Enjoyed the experience!

Great cruise on the Orca boat. The Captain and crew were very knowledgable and helpful. We got to see Orcas, Hump Back Whales and Sea Otters. We had a great time and recomend Major Marine Tours.

We went on the Orca Quest Tour today (22. May) and it was amazing! We saw some humpbacks right at the beginning and came across some cute puffins, seals, bald eagles and mountain goats. The captain always stopped when he saw something interesting and made sure to be as near as possible so everyone could see and take pictures. He explained everything very well and in a calm voice, it was very nice! Later on we finally saw a lot of orcas, it was fantastic! There were at least 20 to 30 in smaller groups. Some were very near to our boat, just about 20 ft away, fascinating animals. We had a lot of fun and it was just a great tour!!
