Top Victoria Whale Watching

Absolutely amazing!! Was hoping to see whales as never seen any whale before but wasn’t expecting it especially as the day we went it was very foggy. However Reid and her team did an amazing job spotting offshore orcas and explaining how they hunt, live and the differences in the different sub groups of orca. It was just so amazing and very emotional for me. The captain then took us to see more wildlife and we saw sea lions, seals and even the tail of a beautiful humpback. Was so amazing- would 100% recommend. Even if we didn’t get to see any whales would still have been a lovely boat trip. It was so amazing I booked another tour with prince of whales when I was in Vancouver after Victoria and we had Wilma and her crew take us out and managed to find a huge group of humpback whales! Again Wilma was so knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife it just made the best day. Two best days ever! If I lived closer I would do this trip weekly as every trip will be different and you will never get bored of it!

We had an amazing experience with Orca Spirit as Josh the Captain lead us to some excellent locations. Before our trip out, there was a pod of 5 Orcas in the Inner Harbour. There was a lot of activity with a pod of Orcas sharing/celebrating a big kill and we even caught a breech. We then were witness to couple of Humpbacks doing deep dives and showing us their massive tails. Sealions galore at Race Rocks ... Plug your nose lol. Josh was very informative and a fantastic guide.

As a surprise and rather spur of the moment purchase, I got tickets during a trip to Victoria BC for my boyfriend's birthday, after we got off the Clipper. Neither of us had been in a smaller plane before and the photos looked really gorgeous online. It was extremely smooth buying the tickets, arriving and being checked in, and getting into the plane itself. Although both of us are slender, I'm a little curvy, the seats were extremely small. The seat belt and the floating device were almost painfully tight to put on, and the seat itself was quite tiny. Of course, we fully anticipated this, but if you're a female presenting person with full hips, know it may be a little uncomfortable. The plane was also prepared with ear plugs, should the noise level get too high. The views were absolutely impeccable and stunning. Would highly recommend if you have a little spending money to take the time and do the tour! Thank you to the pilot and staff for making an amazing experience for us.
