Amazing experience, knowledgeable crew - No1 company to go Whale watching - This was by far the best trip we did on our holiday in BC. The crew were extremely knowledgeable and the open boat we went on was amazing, safe and powerful. We saw hump backs and orcas. We were nearly at the end of our tour when the captain became aware of some sightings of some Orca so asked us if we would be happy to spend a bit more time on board and motor over to see the Orcas, luckily everyone agreed and we had an amazing Orca display. Crew took such good care of us, adults and children and we have since recommended Eagle tour to everyone we have met along our journey in BC.

Had a whale of a time! Don’t miss out! - What an amazing experience! Loved the outdoor and indoor availability on the boat, including washrooms. They had extra gear available to borrow in case you get cold. We saw many humpbacks, seals and a bald eagle. All the staff were very friendly, interactive and informative, especially Ciao and Tilley. Captain Jon got the boat in just the right position so everyone could see the whales. Will definitely be back on our next trip.

Best boat trip ever!! - The staff was so kind and friendly. I appreciated knowing where our money was going and learning about the wildlife. We saw orcas, bald eagles, seals and sealions, and the boat was comfortable and nice. This was the best part of our Canada trip and I would recommend it to any and everyone!

Best ever! - I booked 5 tours and ended up doing seven. The staff/crew are the best! Every tour is really special and I finally got to experience killer whales after waiting 31 years to see them. I’m so glad I chose Eagle Wing to fulfill that dream! They’re all passionate, knowledgeable, hilarious and dedicated. I will be back!

PURE MAGIC - I can’t begin to describe my experience, it was amazing. I appreciated the respect and acknowledgement to the Salish peoples and land. If you’re not one for crowds I would recommend the speed boat tour, I went as a solo tourist and really enjoyed myself. Our crew and captain (Patrick? And Carol) were outstanding, they shared amazing facts but also realized the significance of the experience and let us enjoy it peacefully, at one point it was so quiet and magical. Eagle Wing has a “family” style feel to it, which really sold me, the staff care about what they do and most importantly the wildlife they study and protect. I wish they did an overnight experience or something more extended because I couldn’t get enough!
