We had an amazing trip whale watching on the Wednesday and went out again on the Thursday for bear watching. Both Dave and Jean-Yves were extremely professional and knowledgeable and they managed to make our trips totally memorable.

Had a great whale watching trip guided by JY. Saw several gray whales, loads of sea otters and a bald eagle. Gorgeous scenery as well. JY is very knowledgeable and very excited to share that knowledge with those on the trip. A great trip!
