Over deze activiteit

Orka's gaan tussen mei en oktober naar de kustwateren van British Columbia om zich te goed te doen aan de zalm die terugkeert naar de Fraser River om kuit te schieten. Er zijn drie scholen (families) van ongeveer 80 orka's die elk jaar naar dit gebied komen, wat betekent dat de kans op het zien van deze dieren zeer groot is.

De vaartuigen die worden gebruikt op deze walvistour, zijn open boten of zeer snelle, overdekte razendsnelle rubberboten waarmee de boottocht ongeacht de weersomstandigheden altijd vlot en comfortabel verloopt. Tijdens uw spannende expeditie krijgt u verhelderend commentaar van professionele biologen en krijgt u de orka in zijn natuurlijke habitat te zien. Met de hydrofoons aan boord van de boot kunt u de roep van de orka's horen en met de foto-identiteitskaarten kunt u zelfs zien welke orka het is. Kijk vooral uit naar orka Granny, waarvan men denkt dat die ouder dan 100 jaar is!

Vanaf negen centraal gelegen ophaalplaatsen in het centrum van Vancouver wordt u opgehaald door een pendelbus met airconditioning. Voor degenen die met de auto komen, is er gratis parkeergelegenheid in Steveston Village.

Mis deze buitengewone ontmoeting met de natuur aan de zuidwestkust van Canada niet!

Staff was informative. It was a great day out on the water. When you are on the water - you can't really complain. We only saw a couple of humpbacks and a couple of bald eagles - we were hoping to see some orcas. I’ve been on a number of whale watches so I understand you see what you see. What was disappointing is that they say you will be out from 3-5 hours. They started heading back at exactly 2.5 hours. Of that 2.5 hours we spent a half hour looking at a bald eagle. There was no looking for more whales after 2.5 hours. What they should say in their advertising is - if you don’t see many whales we will head back and be gone for exactly 3 hours. It’s the most expensive whale watch I’ve been on. You would think they would make the most of the five hours. This wasn’t my first rodeo - I’ve been on whale watches in Monterey Bay and Morro Bay, California and out of Cape Cod, MA. This whale watch was the most disappointing and I didn’t even see whales on the trip out of Morro bay. That outfit really spent the time and effort to bring a quality experience. This outfit felt like they were moving numbers through their gates and weren’t about providing an experience for each guest. Just disappointed.

It's an amazing experience but must know that the ship could travel very far to catch whales/orcas. Hold tight too !

Overpriced for the amount of time spent on the water. Ellen, our tour guide was wonderful. Very informative and helpful with questions.

Enjoyed cruising along watching Killer Whale family. Environmentalist was very knowledgeable and kept us informed during the whole trip. Glad we were able to have this experience.

It is really a waste of time and money! We spent all day long in this activity for almost nothing. They picked us up in a meeting point downtown Vancouver very early and the shuttle took us 1:30h to get into the pier where we would take the boat. Then the boat trip was about 2:30h trying to find the whales and only at the final stage we could see partially two very far. When we supposed they would get closer or wait more time there, they said the time was over and they needed to get back to the pier for the next excursion. In total, spent 8 hours for nothing. They gave us a voucher to go again for free, but we would never do all this again. Save yourself some time and money and go on a trip from Victoria rather than Vancouver.
