Wow what an experience with Alaska Tales. I know I sure have a tale to tell now and it won’t be a tall one! Mark and Sophie were incredible for a crew. Very pleasant and funny. However, the star of the show, alongside the whales and stellar seals, was our naturalist Taylor. His excitement for his work and the whales was deeply-rooted, you get swept up with it.
Reading and/or watching media about whales and their virtue is one thing, but there’s no description good enough to put into words the pointed sentimentality you feel when seeing humpbacks. I feel lucky to have gotten a chance to experience it.
I particularly appreciate Alaska Tales effort to act as respectful to the beautiful animals as possible. A great experience that I won’t forget and cannot recommend enough.
