Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 2026-06-11

vancouverwhalewatchingtours.com ("we", "us", "this site") is an independent travel-information website. We are not a tour operator and we do not run, crew, or sell whale watching trips ourselves.

1. How we earn money

This site participates in the GetYourGuide affiliate programme. When you click a booking link or use an embedded availability widget on this site and then make a booking, we may earn a commission. This commission is paid by GetYourGuide or the tour operator — it does not add anything to the price you pay. Your fare is the same whether or not you use our links.

2. FTC and ASA compliance

In line with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's endorsement guidelines and the UK Advertising Standards Authority's guidance, we disclose that booking links marked rel="sponsored", buttons labelled "Check Availability" or "Book", and the embedded GetYourGuide widgets on this site are affiliate links that may generate a commission for us.

3. Editorial independence

Our recommendations are based on publicly available tour data, traveller review counts and ratings, operator information, and our own research into Vancouver whale watching. Commission rates do not determine which tour we feature as our "top pick". The featured Prince of Whales catamaran tour is highlighted because it carries the highest verified review count in the city (4.8/5 from 2,400+ reviews) and a comfort-boat format that suits most visitors — not because it pays more.

4. Accuracy of information

Prices, ratings, review counts, departure points and seasonal details change over time and are shown for guidance only. Always confirm the current price, availability, inclusions and cancellation terms on the operator's or GetYourGuide's checkout page before you book.

5. Third-party links

Once you click through to GetYourGuide or an operator, their terms, privacy policies and booking conditions apply. We are not responsible for the content or practices of third-party websites.

6. Questions or concerns

If you have any questions about this disclosure or how we operate, contact us at hello@vancouverwhalewatchingtours.com.
