The boat captain (Captain John), naturalist(Zoey), and native guide(Cheyenne) were all fantastic. Very friendly and knowledgeable. They get you up close and personal, but in a safe manner. We saw orcas, humpback whales, grizzlies, sea lions, and bald eagles.

Not only did we see 6 grizzlybears, we saw sealions, seals, dolphins, dal porpoises, black bears AND orcas during the boatride to the inlet. Jessica was a great guide. Not a cheap excursion but realy worth the money.

Tour was very well organised and Quinn the guide very knowledgeable and attentive. Unfortunately only saw bears from very long distance but enjoyed seeing humpbacks and orcas on return trip. Disappointed there was no indigenous interaction and background apart from very brief welcome to island. Was quite surprised and confronted with logging on island and remaining quite for bears but while large trucks passed just above! Lunch good would have appreciated a hot drink in the office while waiting for tour to commence at 7am.

Absolutely AMAZING from start,watching the sun rise on the way to Toba from the boat,to finish,watching two humpback whales blowing and playing on the journey back.We also saw sea lions,a bald eagle and black bears but the highlights for me were watching a big male grizzly and then a mother and cub grizzly catching salmon.I felt totally privileged to witness the amazing wildlife and the beauty of Vancouver Island.Bex,our boat driver and guide,was so informative,knowledgeable and enthusiastic for what she does-a perfect host.Throw in a fabulous lunch and a beautiful day…just THE best.

The Toba Inlet Grizzly tour was amazing. Our guide Bradden was phenomenal, so upbeat and knowledgeable. He made the trip so much fun, and worked hard to make sure we had a great experience. The scenery was outstanding. What a beautiful area to enjoy a great lunch in the sun. We were able to see one huge male Grizzly chow down on some salmon, a black bear, and 4 humpback whales. It was cool to see all of the salmon swimming up river to spawn. Thank you to the Klahoose First Nation for sharing your sacred space. Our guides Ben and Terry sure know the bears. They made sure we stayed safe and shuttled us to the multiple viewing stations. A memorable day for sure. 10 out of 10 would recommend a tour with Campbell River Adventures. Thank you so much!

Great tour with Quinn, saw hunchback whale and 4 bears on way to Toba. After a few distant views of bears at the towers, finally got great views of mother and cub playing in the water and eating. On way back found an orca pod as well. Great veggie lunch.

We were so excited about this tour and it didn’t disappoint, was hands down the highlight of our honeymoon! Quin (or Quinn….sorry!) was so knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does and the wildlife he was showing us, he was a wealth of knowledge and really good fun to be around for the day. We saw grizzlies, their cubs, seals and humpback whales. Magical. A day we’ll never forget!

We did the full day grizzly tour to Toba inlet on Wednesday and had an outstanding experience. Tyler W. was our very competent and knowledgeable guide - can’t imagine anyone could beat him! We got to see humpback whales, Orcas, black bears and grizzlies during our tour. So exciting! We also appreciated the indigenous guides from Klahoose Nation - they bent over backwards to make sure we had some excellent bear viewings. Finally, it is important to comment on the food - the snacks and lunch that we were served exceeded our expectations- fresh and delicious! Looking forward to doing another tour next year!

A very special day and highly memorable. Excellent, informed, enthusiastic and friendly guiding. Safety taken seriously. Lovely lunch. It was incredible to see the grizzlies in their own stunning environment. The scenery is to die for. And plenty of whales on the way there and back. A fabulous experience. Perhaps a few too many people but we loved it!

We spent the day from 6.30 to 4.00 with the excellent local guide Quinn who took us out to Toba Inlet on the new eagle covered boat to meet the Klahoose First Nation hosts who led us on a Grizzly Bear tour. Such an interesting day with delicious lunch and excelllent viewing opportunities.

Thx Guys! We saw them all, Orca, Whale and many Grizzlies. Awesome! You all including the first nation guides did an excellent job. Thank you

Although this was a grizzly bear tour we also saw 7 or 8 humpback whales. Including a couple of breachings. The bears were also fantastic, fishing for salmon. All the guides were excellent.

A wonderful experience. Jim, our captain/guide, was just brilliant - informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. We saw 5 bears including youngsters in their natural habitat. Breathtaking views from the boat and at Toba Inlet where the bears make their way down for the salmon. Nature at its finest. Will be coming back before too long I hope 🙏

Beautiful experience. Knowledgeable guide willing to go the extra mile for an amazing experience with one clear intention: seeing as much wildlife as possible. Thank you.

The trip was amazing! Not only are the views of Vancouver Island, and the smaller islands nearby, absolutely stunning, but to be able to view the bears in their natural habitat is an experience like no other. Our captain and tour-guide - Jim - was so knowledgeable and interesting, and he made the trip extremely enjoyable. The native guides at Tobla Inlet - Benny, and Billy - made everyone feel completely at ease throughout the land tour and were happy to answer any questions on the bears and the surrounding territory. Seeing a pair of humpback whales on the way back was an added bonus. I would 100% love to come back again in the future.

5* + trip, this fulfilled every wish my wife and I ever had in seeing Grizzly Bears in the wild in their natural habitats incredible and worth every penny, a bucket list dream come true. Seeing the Humpback Whales, Golden and Bald Eagles we unexpected bonuses. Tyler and the team were knowledgeable, excellent guides and hosts, we cannot recommend this more highly.

Superb full day out (over 9hrs!) with Captain John and marine biologist Zoe. We saw humpback whales, sea lions, harbour seals, bald eagles, elk and 10 grizzlies! Amazing scenery and informative commentary from the crew..thank you! Stewart and Marcello from the Homalco were super too, very knowledgeable and great jokes to boot. An experience to remember!

I have never met anyone who loved their job more than Tyler. His enthusiasm was contagious. His knowledge of the grizzlies, the Klahoose and the encompassing area was without equal. His genuine eagerness to provide information and answer all questions was extraordinary. I sincerely hope Campbell River Whale Watching and Adventure Tours recognizes the value Tyler brings to their organization. The grizzlies did not disappoint. We were fortunate to see 2 large boars, 2 sows. (One with this years cub.) It was mesmerizing to witness the interactions between these bears along the river. Safety was a priority. At no time did I feel threatened. Our native guide, Gerry and our "eyes"(I can't remember his name.) ensured we were at the right place at the right time. Thank you. I was disappointed we weren't lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the elusive Orca on our expedition to the scenic Toba Inlet. BUT... it was a Grizzly Tour after all. It was an incredible experience from start to finish on Sept. 15 2022

Where to start on this incredible once in a lifetime experience! Our skipper & guide Tyler, was fantastic starting the day by showing us where we would be going and a little about how the day would run. As we headed up towards the inlet we saw a couple of Humpback whales and stellar sea lions as well as so many birds! Once we got to Toba we got on a small bus and headed up towards the river where we saw 5 bears including a first year cub and a black bear (something that is quite rare!) - it was a true once in a lifetime experience seeing the bears capturing the salmon and eating it in front of us! We then had our tasty lunch on the dock - shout out to the team for sorting out our dietary requirements! On our way back Tyler received a tip off about Orcas from another boat so we headed that way and saw a pod of 5 of them in the bay, then to complete our day we saw dolphins as well! Thank you so much for one of the best days ever!

Great trip. Tyler was really friendly and very knowledgeable. We say Grizzlies, porpoise , humpback and orca whales. Boat was very comfortable and food good. Highlight of our Canada holiday
