We enjoyed this tour. Our guide (sorry! I don't remember his name) was fantastic! A heads up that, at least on the day we went (end of June), they were requiring everyone to be wearing long sleeves. Everyone who had a windbreaker or the like just needed to wear a regular life jacket, but my husband and I did not have jackets (it was around 90 degrees that day) so we had to wear full body suits. Another thing to be aware of is that the boat travels at high speeds. I suggest that you not wear a at as one person in our group nearly lost hers. Also, I was glad my hair was in a ponytail! We did this our first day in Vancouver and it gave us a good overview and lots of fun stories about the city and the people who live there. The highlight was just how close we were able to get to see the seals! We got some great photos!Tamara_I

It was a great experience. Host (Greg) was great full of energy. He was making donuts on water with boat that was so cool. Took round of big ships. It was just GREAT.

This was so much fun! Captain Paul was an incredible tour guide. It's obvious that he has a great love for his job which came through in his intimate knowledge of Vancouver's maritime history, cultural history, and wildlife. Seeing the seals was the icing on what was an already lovely trip. I'd highly - HIGHLY - recommend doing this if you're looking for a way to explore Vancouver from the water.
