Highlight of our trip! - We had such a great time on the City and Seal Tour! Greg was our captain and ensured our comfort and enjoyment from the beginning. It was great to see some Vancouver landmarks from the water, learn about the city and its past and also witness some incredible wildlife sightings thanks to Greg's keen eye! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone as it was a good mix of adventure and learning. Many thanks to Greg for the facts and laughs. We would have spent all day on the water if we could! Next time I would definitely take the longer tour. 10/10 for me!

Loved it! - We recently took the Vancouver City and Seals tour. Our captain was Greg. He was very engaging, funny and knowledgeable. Greg even made an extra stop for us when we had the rare pleasure of spotting dolphins on our trip! The boat tour was a great way to explore the area!

Friendly, understanding, accommodating - We had planned to go with our three small kids for seal watching and was excited for it. Dillion was very friendly, understanding and accommodating inspite of the issue we had from our side because of our kids. The manager was also very understanding. They put customers first. We really appreciate their focus on making sure we did not leave disappointed.

Highly Recommend - Wonderful experience - I was a last minute booker while traveling on a business trip to Vancouver. I found our guide to be absolutely AMAZING! His knowledge and love of Vancouver, Vancouver's nature and general conservation and restoration is what made this tour so amazing. It is cold. They give you suits, but it's cold. The boat is just like what's shown in the photo, so about 11 people are aboard. The fee for this this fantastic experience is extremely worth the cost. I would highly recommend.

A different pery - This tour covers a lot of ground. Beautiful area. Guide spent a lot of time pointing out celebrity homes. I would have preferred more time looking at the seals, or add 10 minutes onto the tour
