I would suggest VY Canis Majoris for a great tourist destination. I've been there twice so far, once in a Type-6 Transporter, then in an Asp Explorer.
But......If you plan on being serious with passengers to tourist destinations in the Orca,
could you please give it a better FSD (Class 6) and a larger Fuel Tank (32t), as standard! I set up my Orca for Exploration, and ventured towards VY Canis Majoris (it was to be my third visit), but 64 hyperjumps to travel 1000Ly - 1100Ly, was just too much, so I returned to the bubble. I don't think that jump range is going to cut it for a 1800Ly trip. Imagine going to Sagittarius A* in it with that jump range! For me to take passengers any decent distance from "the bubble", the monetary reward is going have to very big, if the ship remains the way it is currently.
The Orca is still one of my most favourite ships (I have a completely A Graded Orca, with an A5 Fuel Scoop), but it's jump range and the amount of jumps per tank, are woeful at best, and turn a great ship into a pretty good ship. The potential is there, but only if you improve those items in ship itself. I really don't want to have to spend a lot of time searching for materials for Engineer mods to provide it with a better jump range, just so I can do some passenger missions in a ship that should be much better than it is now.
Sorry about the rant, but I felt I had to say it.
