    Review summary

    Excellent
    116 reviews•Google Maps

    The crew at Harv & Marv's Outback Alaska clearly loves what they do, and that enthusiasm shows up in every review. Guides like Coral, Tess, John, and captains including Graham, Dalton, and Ben consistently earn praise for their deep knowledge of humpback whales and local marine life. Many guests mention how the naturalists can identify individual whales by their tail patterns and share fascinating stories about them. The small group sizes create an intimate, personalized experience where you'll have plenty of space and opportunities to ask questions. What really sets this operation apart is how reliably guests see whales in impressive numbers and up close. People report spotting bubble feeding, breaches, whale babies, and even orcas alongside the humpbacks. The crews know exactly where to position the boats for optimal viewing while maintaining respectful distances. Complimentary snacks, drinks, bathrooms onboard, and professional photos they share afterward add thoughtful touches. Transportation from cruise ships is included, and guides often share local recommendations for food and activities beyond the tour itself.

    My husband and I booked a whale watching tour as part of our honeymoon and had a wonderful time! We were in a small group of 6 + the guide, which provided the chance for lots of questions and answers with the guide, lots of space to relax on the boat, and a very personalized experience. It was a gorgeous day on the water and we say about a dozen whales, even a few babies! Our guide was able to identify the whales by their tales and share stories and facts about the whales, which was so cool. He gave us local recommendations for food, hiking, and things to see, and even shared about native Alaskan art and the local Juneau culture. He also took us to see an island where a bunch of sea lions congregate and we saw a few otters. The tour company provided snacks, drinks, and even a bathroom on-board, which was wonderful. Fully recommend booking with Alaska Galore Tours and when we come back to Juneau, we will absolutely do another tour.
