The boat captain was very good and knowledgeable about the area. A fun ride and enjoyed seeing the seals!
The fresh air and knowledgeable guide made our afternoon trip fantastic. A wonderful family outing with a little bit of thrill
A fun, exciting ride as you explore the island in and around Vancouver. We got to see sea lions, birds and beautiful homes. Holly our Guide was AMAZING! She was very knowledgable and really fun. Great trip!
I had the good fortune to book a tour with Sewell's Sea Safari in mid-July 2019. Our guide Paddy from Ireland was just fantastic from start to finish! He started with a very patient demonstration of how to put on our drysuits and then procedures around getting onboard and where life jackets etc were stowed. We moved out onto the water and were given a superbly guided tour of the various landmarks, islands and wildlife around as Paddy expertly manoeuvred our RIB at optimal distances from seals, birds, rocks and islands dotted around the place. He had such an authoritative knowledge of Vancouver's natural history and of the city itself that we found extremely helpful. We then later came round to see downtown Vancouver from a distance and he pointed out the various neighborhoods with numerous recommendations for what to see and do there. The picturesque houses around West Van were all so impressive as well, it was a perfect way to round off the tour. I'd strongly recommend Sewell's Sea Safari and if at all possible ask to go on Paddy's tour, he was a fantastic guide and extremely capable captain.
Exceptionnel ! Amazing ! Fantastic ! Famille de 6 personnes (2 adultes et 4 enfants) : la navette avec un chauffeur adorable nous attendait devant notre hôtel. L'accueil sur place est très sympa. Et notre capitaine Henry a été exceptionnel. Nos enfants se sont éclatés, nous avons vu des aigles, des phoques, Vancouver à l'horizon et surtout des vagues géantes. C'est l'expérience fabuleuse d'une vie. NE MANQUEZ PAS ! Le retour en navette super avec un chauffeur hyper sympa, dépôt devant l'hôtel comme des rois. Henry tu es le meilleur
