Fabulous 5 star trip with Captain Elias - Fabulous 5 star trip with Captain Elias despite a bit of rain and chill. Elias was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining and most of all safety conscious of all passengers on board. The staff in the office/shop were also so helpful. Thank you all. Would love to do it again. Can highly recommend this trip.

Our tour guide Thomas was absolutely amazing! He was so knowledgeable and Kind, it really made our experience all the more grand.

Stunning Views, fun boat ride, great tour guide. - We went on the 180 minute tour with Jake as our guide. What a great tour! I can’t believe those beautiful views are so close to the city. We felt so far from the city too! We went on a long inlet between two mountains and it was stunning. Plus we saw some sunbathing sea lions, birds, jumping salmon as well. The boat was really neat! Nothing to obstruct the view. What a fun ride! Jake was a great guide & boat pilot as well. Thank you! I definitely recommend this boat tour.
The temps were 60’sF. The suits they gave us to wear were perfect to keep us warm enough during the higher speed parts.
Granville Island has great food & lots of shopping. Give yourself a good hour or two to walk around before or after your tour. They will lock up your bags for free while on the tour.

Sea Vancouver Excitement - This was a brilliant trip to experience Vancouver Harbour and the city sights from the water and then to drive up Indian Arm to see the stunning scenery and wildlife. The steep fiord-like sides were absolutely breathtaking in the sunshine.
Captain Thomas was an excellent guide and explained the area, sights and animals, stopping often if we saw something interesting. He was also very considerate and caring of those on the boat who were a little hesitant about the trip. We had great excitement as we drove across the little whirlpool (not as little as he would normally see there!!!) that had developed with the currents at one point. This made some of us laugh more than others as we all got a little unexpectedly wet! It didn't dampen the awe of the views though or the experience of the trip!
