- Whale watching in Juneau Alaska was amazing. We were super fortunate to have happened upon a small pod of Orca who made some awesome appearances for us. We also got time with humpback whales too.This was an excursion on my Majestic Princess cruise. The tour company Allen Marine Tours did an awesome job putting us on and keeping us on the wildlife. Such a great end to our day in Juneau.

Alaska changes you …. For the better if you allow it. Once home, you will long to return.
I’m so happy you had this marvelous adventure today.
Awesome! I loved when you said, “ I take back everything I said about Alaska”. So glad you are enjoying Alaska.
Do yourself a favor- follow these whales to their winter home- off the coast of Maui. I think they know how to live- summers in Alaska & winters in Maui. They're magnificent. Thanks for sharing
Yes, we have seen them off the coast of Maui. Good point to make👏
Check out this live cam in Maui for watching whales, it's unbelievable. We came across it and spent most of last winter watching it. Totally glued to the tv
Maui, Hawaii 4K Live Cam at Maui Sands
Wow
Thanks for taking us along & for the great filming! I loved it!
Thanks Tony, for this whale watching & orca adventure! It was great hearing the excitement in your voice. You did a great job. 🐳🦈👍🙂
Thank you Tony! That was a Whale of a video!! It was killer!!
Love the play on words. 😂JennyB
@@LaLidoLoca :-) Thanks Jenny!
As I think you know, I ran a whale watch company in Juneau for 6 years and I can tell you that seeing both Humpback whales and Orca's on the same day is incredibly rare! You were so lucky. I love this vlog! Thanks Tony!
No amount of videos or photos can prepare you for the amazing experience of seeing Orcas in the wild. We were there in 2013 (with HAL) and can never forget the excitement when Orcas surfed the wake of the boat. Amazing! Love from England.
Did the naturalist tell you that "killer whales" are not whales but are actually the largest members of the dolphin family? Yes, and the nickname of "killer whale" is actually a turn-around of the nickname that sailors gave to this species because they are "killers of whales". Some orcas specifically choose to hunt and kill baby humpback whales - a delicacy in their diet. We learned all of this on our first Princess Alaskan cruise that provided a brilliant marine biologist who gave lectures during our cruise on the Dawn Princess. Thanks for bringing back some wonderful memories with your great video, Tony!
I've cruised to Alaska a lot (former crew member and I spent a lot of summers there) and I never saw orca's this close. What an incredible experience! Thank you for capturing it for us all to enjoy!
Is it true that crew members on the cruise ships work 12 hours a day 7 days a week ? I mean I have a strong work ethic but DANG ! That’s gotta just hurt that many hours !!! Do you just go numb to it ??? I bet there’s huge turn over since NO one ☝️ s willing to work now !!
Well Tony your videos, and Don's too, inspired me to do something I said I wouldn't do this year, what with all the turmoil. I'm booked for an Alaskan cruise on the NCL Encore on 10/9. Can't wait. So if I don't like it, it's your fault. JUST KIDDING! Loved the video.
GREAT VIDEO OF THE WHALES TONY. I COULD WATCH THIS A MILLION TIMES AND NEVER GET TIRED OF IT.
I’m from Hawaii and I think you filmed that beautifully. Looking for whales is a local pastime here. It is always strangely exhilarating and exciting. I am glad you enjoyed your excursion. I have never taken a cruise but I am subscribed to both you and Don’s channel. You both are so entertaining and enthusiastic 🤩. Keep up the good work. By the way, the Pacific Northwest is the best breathing area in the country due to to cool weather and tons of 🌲 trees. Enjoy!
"oh, my goodness!" says everyone ever on a whale watch. They are amazing! Glad you got to see a couple of different types of whales!
I am sitting at my desk watching this while working and when the Orcas jumped up, I actually CLAPPED and squealed "WOW!!" Thank you Tony for blessing us with this video. You could easily keep these marvels to yourself but you share them with us and we are grateful!!! 🐳🐟🚢
What an amazing adventure!! I am so happy for you and Don!! Thank you so much for taking us with you!
Hi Tony and Don - Thank you so much for taking us with you on your Whale Watching Tour. It was fabulous, well filmed and great commentary. I really enjoyed it and felt like I was right there with you. Thanks for sharing and continued success and fun. Love PegEgg
That was breathtaking!!! Thank you Tony for this experience through your eyes! The whales were spectacular and gave me goosebumps. Hopefully one day Larry and I will be able to visit Alaska.

Brings it all back and reaffirms how and why I have fallen in love with Alaska. We saw so many whales, but your videos of the whales swimming in tandem are so much better than any pics or videos that we took.
You love that kind of weather ?? I would definitely need a log home with a huge fireplace !! But yes, I’d love seeing the Orcas also !!!
@@leanneadams2549 😂 I was there in the first part of July. The weather was gorgeous. We didn’t even wear jackets, except in Denali, and even then we had to take them off when hiking.
Excellent footage of a very rare experience! Thanks for sharing!
We have always said Alaska will be our very last cruise. We live in Canada and our winter is basically 9 months of the year, last thing we think of is an Alaska cruise. Since watching your video's Tony we are now rethinking our plans and could be going to the Great white north sooner than later. Thank you for sharing your experience and your excitement. Well done Tony
Tony, this is so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us! Don must be the lucky charm. 🍀🍀( But I still wish Jenny had been there. Someday!! ❤️❤️)
So sweet 😀I will be there in August 2022. 😀😀jenny
I don’t, Don has never seen them, I’m the lucky charm.
That was awesome!!! Living in FL have been to SeaWorld alot BUT to see them in their natural habitat was just majestic!!! Thanks Tony!!!
You did an amazing job Tony 👏 !!! I'm going to checkout this excursion in Juneau now because of you and Don.
Capturing the orca jumping out of the water is a million dollar shot. You were very lucky and I’m happy for you.
Thank you for sharing- I am glad that you had a great excursion. Definitely no $100 refund needed for your outing.
i love how they were worried about you getting your shot right. Love it when people dont suck.
This has been fun watching you explore Alaska! I loved watching your expression of excitement when the first whale blew and listening to the excitement in your voice trying to describe them. I am so glad you changed your mind on Alaska. Thank you so much for letting me relive my Alaskan cruise from 2 years ago❤️
What a fantastic whale watching experience for you.🐋🎉 You’ve set the bar high for my Juneau Whale Watching in May. To hear you say “come to Alaska”, was great as it was surprising you didn’t really have the desire to go. I can’t wait to go!
Absolutely loved this footage. You did a great job! And thank you for capturing all you did! I want to go again! Just cant beat the amazing beauty of Alaska!!!!
WOW, that was AWESOME!! super cool footage. Thanks for sharing it. Can't wait for my trip to Alaska next year.
Be still......and know, that THIS is God ❤
Well, well, well...we can tell you're loving it. You've caught the Alaska bug that a lot of us already know and love. I'll never forget the first time I saw a whale from our balcony. It was like it was waving at our ship with it's fins. It brought tears to my eyes. Never been lucky enough to see Orca's though. Very special. So happy you got to see them, and that you and Don are having a fab time. The only thing that would make it better would be your beautiful wife by your side! 🚢😊
Blessed. Seeing whales really humbles you. Nature is powerful. Thx for sharing
How exciting! 👏👏👏👏👏You got some great shots of the Orcas. I found myself squealing as though I was right there. 😆 Thanks for sharing, Tony.
I was so overwhelmed by Alaska exactly 2 years ago today on our first (and planned to be our only) cruise to Alaska. We decided part way through that we will be going back. I WAS expecting to be amazed but did not know to what extent it was going to overload my senses, I was getting exhausted mentally. This was our last cruise before shut down and you and Don (and Jay and Dee to be fair as well) are bringing all the wonderful feels right back to me. Wondering if this will change your thoughts on possibly trying the Panama Canal now too. Who knows, it could UNLOCK some hidden awe too? 😆
I appreciate the accompanying commentary as I'm trying to understand what we
re viewing. Thanks for taking me along. Hey that's like the SanFrancisco ferry! Nice seats, and a snack bar! Up and down stairs!
If you ever cruise to Cabo San Lucas, take the Zodiak rafts for whale watching (humpback). You get super close (within a 100 feet), breaching, swimming under your rafts. Coolest experience ever! Super video and pics. Also, take the first available excursion…they are super active in the morning. Best between January and March. We even saw them from the beach.
Wow, so many!
Absolutely life changing seeing them in their natural habitat. Amazing video Tony, so glad you’re having a great time!
Awesome. Orca's are a real treat. I was blessed to see about 30 humpbacks on my one trip, but no Orca's. Happy for you and Don.
Wow, so lucky for you guys to see all the Orcas. Makes me wanna go cruising to Alaska. Thank you for sharing Mr. La Lido :)
Now That Was A Wonderful Day!
This is your best yet! Wow...whales! Amazing. So nice to see the safety of a mask! Your the best!!!!
What a great shots of the whales - so blessed to have seen them.
Absotutley Love the whales. Beautiful.Thank you for Sharing.
How cool it that!!!
Tony, You have no idea how blessed you were on your Whale Watching Tour. It took us 5 trips to Alaska to just get a few glimpses of an Orca. We had taken a similar cruise and saw many Humpback Whales' bubble net feeding and it was spectacular but the orcas are very special. You provided some great video and know we know why no audio. Too bad about the jerk who kept asking stupid questions. There's one in every Pod!
I am so happy for you and Don. What an awesome experience. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. ❤️🐳❤️
Holy moly! My cheeks hurt from smiling through the entire video!!!
There is nothing like that experience ❤❤❤ So glad you went to share Alaska with everyone. One of my favs!
I love how you qualify by saying “animal wildlife” 😂
Worth every minute of cold weather!
Ermegersh, this is DEFINITELY on my bucket list!!
Tony with the Hawaiian shirt on his balcony! Alaska must have warmed up.
Tony, you got several great shot's of the back of my head Ha! Ha! What a Vantastic day we had! I think it was your luck though to see those Orca's. Don's been so many time and I've been 4 times and this is the first Orca pod I've seen up there. Lot's of humpbacks on my previous trips! Spectacular day all around. A real highlight for me too Tony!
Awesome! You got to see Humpbacks and Orcas! Love when the breach! So happy you are having a great time. Pouring in Seattle.
Johnstone Straits off Vancouver Island is a fantastic place to see Orcas.
Tony, thank you for sharing your whale watching experience with us. It was absolutely amazing. Great video!
I knew you’d change your mind about Alaska after doing the whale watch. You were so fortunate to see the orcas. We weren’t as lucky, however we saw a group of whales breaching together which our guide said was rare to see. Alaska is so beautiful!
A-mazing!! What a great experience. I am so happy for you that you got to see those beautiful orkas!
OMG❣️That was an amazing video. THANK YOU so much❣️ My husband was so excited to see your whale watching experience, we didn’t get to see much of a whale on our Alaska cruise. We have something to look forward to for our next Alaska cruise.
Hello Don and Tony, have fun !!!
Say hello to the whales , lol 😆
I'm jumping up and down over this like i was there!
Amazing!! My second time watching this video and still takes my breath away! So glad you got to see this and enjoyed every minute!
Tony- Alaska is highly addictive. You will not be able to stop thinking about it’s magic .... you’ll be back, and fall more in love every time 🐳🐳🐳
Never doubt the Power Of Don!
Watching your Alaska cruise on my Alaska cruise (sea day)!
You lucky Butt! We went in 2016 and got to see several Humpbacks perform their bubble net maneuver. Orcas would top that, for sure! I understand your speechlessness. Alaska stole my heart and I can't wait to go back in May 2022 if all goes well Covid-wise. Thanks for sharing those beauties. You did a great job filming and you and Don are so funny together!
Orca viewing is on my bucket list.
We were there in 2011 & 2013 on the Princess Grand and Princess Star, truly my favorite trip I’ve ever experienced. We are booked sailing next summer out of San Francisco but not sure it will happen. Yours is the very best filming I’ve seen. Thank you
On my only Alaska cruise, a whale breached about 50 feet from our balcony! My wife, on the balcony at the time, got a great view of it. Me, in the cabin drinking coffee, got a great view of my wife's back while she saw such an incredible sight. :(
Loving the excursion videos. I feel like I’m right there.
Thank you. It literally gave me goosebumps!
Going on our first Alaska cruise in 34 days via Princess and pray we see whales 🐳 Orcas- all the beauty!
Sooooo cool! You guys had a great Orca encounter. I gotta admit, I teared up a bit just watching that. An Alaskan cruise is on my list - I’m hoping for 2023! Thank you!!
Totally great views! So neat to see so many whales in their natural beauty. Love this❤️
Awesome video Tony that was so cool to see orca whales 🐋 enjoy stay safe out there love you 👏🏼👍🏼🚢🐋😷❤️🙏🏼🌹😍
How cool! Thanks for sharing…makes me think we need to do this in September while in Alaska! Tony and Don, the dynamic duo 😊
That was amazing! Thank you, Tony, for sharing!!
I would not be happy if I had to get on that packed bus…I’m glad you had a wonderful time!
Can I give this two thumbs up! 👍 👍 WooHoo 🐋
We saw Orca and humpback! Wonderful!!
Tony you are total THUG LIFE lookin🤟🏻❤️
What an incredible site! I’m so glad you and Don got to experience that! So awesome!
One of our favorite excursion! We have been to Alaska several times. It my husband's favorite place to go.
OMGosh. That’s so AWESOME
That was amazing! God’s creations will leave us in awe when we see them in their natural habitat. I am so glad God blessed you both with such a beautiful experience on this cruise❤️🛳
Awesome video, Thanks for sharing with your audience 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
That’s cool Tony the whales are showing off for you guys
Oh my gracious how cool was that for you guys to see the orcas that is that is a blessing from the good Lord
Loved your video, Tony, and your response. Alaska recalibrated my concept of immensity . . . and beauty.
Wow ! I love it . Different style of cruise that I'm used to , but love it! Thanks Tony!
Absolutely beautiful!!! I’m so jealous right now lol. Great footage and you’re making me want to cruise to Alaska now!!!
It’s thrilling for sure and it definitely needs to be seen in person!
Tony’s the lucky charm.
What a wonderful experience for you to have your first time in Alaska, whale watching!!!!
My husband have been fortunate to whale watch on the same tour and did see Orcas but l think your sightings were more lively. Our tour, the pod was happy floating just below the water line.
We're traveling to New England from Southern Ontario tomorrow and hopefully to see Humpbacks on a tour.
If you are ever thinking of going to Maui, go between December and April. From our vacation condo sundeck we can see Humpbacks, the mother Humpbacks give birth and their calf's grow in the relatively shallow warm waters surrounding Maui until they start heading up the coast to BC and beyond in May!!
Enjoying your channel!!!😊
so glad you are enjoying Alaska. I have been three times and have another booked in 2023. Two out of the three times we saw orcas. They are amazing to see in the wild.
You did a great job catching those whales!
You did a great job filming.
Thanks for the footage (and the laughs…I love your humor 🤣)
I probably will never get to Alaska. My husband wants his vacations to be sunny and hot 🤷🏻♀️so watching these videos is as close as I’ll get.
Omg , totally awesome, great footage of the orca and killer whales. So beautiful. I live in Australia and Alaska is definitely on my bucket/wish list. I went on a cruise in Australia many years ago and was amazed at seeing about 20 dolphins just in front of the ship and that was awesome but seeing whales would be out of this world. Great video. Thank you
All l can say is awesome awesome. Thanks so much for videoing this for us. I almost felt like I was right there with you. Terrific video 👍. ❤️
