If I could give higher than 5, I would! The entire experience from beginning to end was fantastic. Capt. Billy and his niece were excellent at making our trip fun and safe, all the while sharing a ton of history of the area and knowledge about the whales. I must comment on a 1-star review in which the individual stated that there are no orcas in Icy Strait. NOT TRUE!!! Orcas are quite elusive creatures. Anyone who has even done cursory reading about orcas would know that they are the killers of the ocean in part because their presence is often unknown and unpredictable! See my photos including the location info of Icy Straits and/or Hoonah. They are definitely there. Either way, it's completely unfair to blame the tour company if you don't see them. Wooshkeetaan folks are Hoonah locals and professionals and always do their best to bring the whales (whatever species) to you! We were fortunate because on our trip we saw humpbacks, orcas (close up due to Capt. Billy's excellent knowledge in positioning the boat) and even a bear on the beach! Capt. Billy took the boat close to the beach for great viewing of the bear. You'll have a great experience with Capt. Billy and Wooshkeetaan. They truly care about making the trip exciting and unforgettable.

Best experience EVER!!!!!! Angie was incredibly nice and went out of her way to make the Whale Watching Tour a reality for us. We could never thank her enough! Captain Billy is AMAZING! He is genuine and kind and went out of his way to make sure we also had a great time. Not only did he take us to see whales, but bears and harbor seals too! He's awesome to talk to and educated us about the area and its history. We would do this tour again and again!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Wooshkeetan before doing any of the ships own excursions. You WON'T REGRET IT! :)

This whale watching trip was AMAZING….Captain Josh was very knowledgeable and his first mate was very helpful. The use of the drone was incredible, allowing us to get up close and personal with the wildlife. Our transfer back to the ship was expedited, so we didn’t have to be pier runners! Thanks for a “Whale” of a Time!
