Great experience on the float plane. - Your of two halves. Floatplane is an amazing experience. Travelled on a twin otter which was over 60 years old! Seat configuration was 1-2 but very cramped. I am 6 feet tall and my knees were pushed hard into the seat in front but with a flight time of around 30 minutes, it was doable. Taking off from Vancouver harbour is unbelievable. Arrived in Victoria 35 minutes later. Spent around 5 hours in Victoria before catching the coach from the transit office to Swartz Bay. Boarded the ferry with the coach. Around 90 minutes on the ferry to Twassen. Coach then drives to Vancouver with multiple stops en route. You certainly get a free tour of Vancouver if you’re one of the later stops. Highly recommended

A Great Way to See British Columbia from the Air - A great experience. The best way to enjoy the views of British Columbia from the air and see the amazing islands and the city views. The flight was comfortable and we felt confident in the plane and the crew. Victoria is an amazing town and we enjoyed strolling through China Town the Old Markets and Fisherman's Wharf. The bus was on time and the ferry ride back gave us a close up view of the islands. Worth the money!!!

brilliant - for our 50th wedding anniversary we booked this trip.. utterly brilliant flight with jd the pilot while i enjoyed the hour flight from the co pilot seat. whilst harbour flew us the trip allowed us 6 hours free time around Victoria followed by a 1 hour coach trip to the roll on / off ferry and an hour back to our hotel by Canada plave. Have to say all at Harbour friendly chatty and interested in you. great experience to fly on a sea plane. too so smooth take off and landing.

A long day out but well worth it. - A long day out but well worth it. The sea plane flight was noisy but the views over Vancouver Island were amazing. Victoria itself was beautiful with some beautiful and historic architecture. The coach and ferry return to Vancouver was long but we got another perspective on Vancouver Island. A really great day.

Great flight no info given - Beautiful day perfect flight stunning views. However our pilot provided no info on anything we (all tourists) were seeing. He had a young woman seated next to him and he only provided info to her (both had headphones). Disappointed
