This was an awesome cruise. The crew was so knowledgeable and explained what to look for. To see the spouts of the blue whale in the distance was amazing! The wild life photographer got some awesome photos of the blue whale and a great video of the Pacific White-sided dolphins. We had started to believe that we weren’t going to see any whales, when one of the passengers spotted a spout. (Moral of the story, listen to the crew and look for spouts because the more eyes looking, your chances of seeing a whale are greater). The only disappointment was that when we spotted the whale, the captain headed that way, but because we were close to then end of the cruise, they said they would stay out watching for a while, but 1 family had a plane to catch, so we didn’t get to stay. I highly recommend this tour.
