Turned out to be a very expensive speed boat ride. The first 30 minutes or so, there was very concerted effort to slow down and circle and find whales. Beyond that, we slowed down a few times to admire Deception Pass bridge, eagles nest, birds, and seals. All nice things on their own, but wasn't the point of trip. Guides were knowledgeable, but only if asked. My Alaska whale watching experience had constant information coming over loudspeaker and multiple attempts at whale finding. Not the case with this.
