I originally wanted to book with another company who has gotten rave reviews here on trip advisor, but they did not have any space for us. Anyhow, I was pleasantly surprised with how this has turned out for us. We did the tour on May 27, 130PM. The meeting area is conveniently located in front of Mt. Robert's Tramway which... more

I went on Orca Enterprises Whale Watch about 10 days ago. We were taken by van out to Auke Bay and saw starfish on the beach. Captain Larry talked a little bit and introduced himself..and then we went out to see some whales. We saw about 15-20 whales...a mom and baby, tails coming out of the water, spouting whales, two... more

Before I booked a whale watching trip, I carefully looked at the reviews and noticed consistent rave reviews with another company (not this one). Unfortunately, the other company was booked the day we needed, so I opted for Orca Enterprises. I'm not sure how to describe our overall dissatisfaction, but want to make it clear that it had nothing to... more

My husband and I treated our 8-year old Grandson, Justin, to an Alaskan cruise that included a whale watching excursion in Juneau, Alaska. On a prior trip, we scheduled a whale watching excursion through the ship that was fun, but somewhat OVERCROWDED. Orca Enterprises, on the other hand, has learned from their competitors and provided a more comfortable (approximately 25... more

Called one morning and was able to book a reservation over the phone for that same afternoon. Clean shuttle came to our hotel to pick us up (and dropped us off afterwards). Very friendly, very knowledgeable, caring staff. What started with one whale tail viewing and some sea lions on a buoy (and me thinking that maybe that was all... more

Based on the reviews from Trip Advisor, we called Orca Enterprises and went whale watching June 18th. While the multitudes from our cruise ship went on their shore excursion, we went to the Orca Enterprised office located right in front of the Visitor's Center. The tours normally start at 9:00am but they booked a tour for us at 8:00am since... more

I read great reviews of Orca Enterprises and Captain Larry on Cruise Critic. My husband and I took a whale watch tour on 5/14/08 with Captain Larry and I can't say enough what a great group of people work for this tour company. They are all very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional in all that they do. Their offices have restrooms,... more

If you’ve ever wanted to experience seeing the magnificent whale in the wild then you have to go to Alaska. When you do go you need to book a whale watch trip with Orca Enterprises and Captain Larry. We have done this excursion twice now with Captain Larry and both times were unbelievable. After our first experience we had doubts... more

Even with the brisk weather we had a great time. Captain Larry was our captain and he did a wonderful job showing off the whales. We had a great time. The crew served fresh homemade salmon spread with some crackers and sausage. YMU. more
