Wonderful trip

Wonderful trip for a family! We had a day before a cruise and wanted to do something different. This was super fun.

Communication

Wish we were told what we were flying over- rather than sit and keep second guessing. This was like your airplane take off

First time on a seaplane

A quick, exciting seaplane trip with gorgeous Vancouver views. Much less scary than I thought it’d be.

Unique experience we didn't want to miss!

This was the highlight of our days in Vancouver! We flew with a small seaplane, so we were only on the plane with 2 other guests. After taking the pictures at the plane we took off. Very nice to experience! Then a nice flight past the mountains, a bit along Vancouver Island and back over the city. We would not have missed this experience!

It is quite impressive to take off and land in a seaplane. Great flight first over the sea and then the city

Awesome.

It was a wonderful experience. The ground crew was very friendly and helpful, and the pilot was experienced and very pleasant. We received a lot of information about the plane beforehand and had a very enjoyable flight. We'd love to come back.

Family Flight Was Fantastic

Great experience from start to finish. Check-in was easy and the staff was welcoming. Our pilot did the safety briefing and then loaded us into the plane with my daughter being the co-pilot (she was excited!). The scenery is amazing and it's a cool way to see Vancouver.

Such a treat to be able to ride in a seaplane and view Vancouver from above. Experiencing the take off and landing was definitely the highlight.

Awesome time in the sky!

My husband had this on his bucket list & I didn't due to fear of heights. He talked me into it as we were walking by. The staff was able to accommodate us within an hour. The staff was amazing! Our pilot was so kind. I said I was afraid and he made me his co-pilot and had me sit upfront with him. It was the best experience and I conquered my fears. We took lots of pictures during the flight and on the ground with the pilot and plane. Definitely recommend this company.
