Last minute booking - We had travel delays that made us miss our original tour to Victoria island so I booked this to fill part of our day. From the moment we arrived at the tour shop the team was VERY friendly. We loaded up and our guide was knowledgeable and fun to be with. For the price it is a steal. We would do it again next time we come to Vancouver!

Fabulous! - Our Dawson guide was exceptional! He shared with us a lot of exciting information about the surroundings and was attentive from start to finish, always looking after our comfort. The activity itself was simply unforgettable, from the first to the last moment! Special mention is also made of Dawson’s great photos taken throughout the experience, which he then gave to us free of charge.

A fantastic experience - The tour was fantastic. "Captain Jake" was very friendly and explained everything perfectly, as well as taking pictures and sending them to us later by email. In short, an excursion of 10 that I highly recommend.

Extraordinary Experience - We went out on the tour with Captain Jake on Saturday, September 20th. We're getting older and Jake immediately made us feel safe and comfortable on the zodiac. He is very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We saw all the expected sights: city skyline, lighthouse, seals. And then...........he let us know that several pods of orcas had been spotted ahead of us and if we were willing to extend our tour beyond the scheduled time, we could see them. That was an amazing and once-in-a-lifetime experience. What a thrill. We also really appreciated all the pictures Jake took during the tour. I had left my phone in the locker on the dock and my husband isn't any more adept at taking selfies than I am. So, the photos that Jake took of us are special to us. This was a great tour and we would recommend it - especially with Captain Jake - to anyone. Great job and many thanks! Carol and Charles Ray

Great Zodiac tour! - We had an awesome tour with Jake. He provided excellent commentary about the locations we visited as well as advice on other things to see and do in Vancouver. It was a clear day out on the water so we had great views of all of the mountains and even got to see a pod of orcas in the area!

Nature sea trip Vancouver 15/09/2025 - This was the highlight of my 4 day stay in Vancouver, it was absolutely amazing, Jake our captain was very informative and he also went out of his way when he heard that there were Orca,s nearby, which was not planned. We also had the thrill of the speed boat bounding through the waves giving us all a thrilling time. We loved it, well worth the experience.

Highly Recommended - A really fun and interesting trip show-casing the city and countryside. Jake went the extra mile; for example, he spotted a chance to show us some Orca whales which was outside of the tour itinerary. Jake was informative, friendly and professional and gave us a real trill with some fast bursts with the boat but always making us feel in safe hands. Thank you Jake!
