Totally Worth It - Fantastic views and just the right amount of time in the air. One of the highlights of our entire trip. The bus ride to the ferry and back into Vancouver is a bit long. I would have paid the money to fly back.

Great experience - Value for money. The flight was awesome; ended up in the middle of Victory opposite the 5 star hotel Fairmount where we had afternoon tea. The ferry return. with the included coach to our hotel, made it a wonderful day out on Vancouver Island. Highly recommend

Day trip to Vancouver Island - We looked at a number of ways to visit Vancouver island and the seaplane over and ferry back was the best option to experience the scenery from the air, land and sea. There was plenty of time in Victoria to see the sites with lunch overlooking the water a highlight. It takes a few hours to walk the streets and waterfront and we took our time.

nice day trip from Vancouver to Victoria - Our pilot was wonderful (can't remember her name). The views were beautiful and Victoria was picture perfect. Had lunch at China town and visit to Fairmont Empress hotel, very nice. The return ferry also had gorgeous views. Highly recommend.

Seaplane is an experience - Seaplane was an amazing experience. Be careful if you’re tall. No leg room. My husband is 6ft 3in and very lucky to get the one exit row seat.
You don’t know how long you get in Victoria until you check in, so don’t plan too much. We had booked an 8.15 flight and had to be at the bus station for 3.15pm for the 5pm return ferry. Glad we had an early flight. You also don’t get a straight answer as to what time you’ll be back at the drop off point. The coach does many stops….. we were lucky we were stop 4. Got back to our stop at 8.15pm. It’s well worth it, just be prepared. You get to see all the suburbs of Vancouver and the coach has AC.
It’s expensive but it was our Wedding anniversary and we wanted something special. Found an amazing restaurant in Victoria to enjoy.
