Wonderful birthday celebration - The weather was so calm and sunny which made the scenery even more beautiful. Our guide Darren was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and made the trip so much fun. We had the added bonus of spotting Humpback Whales at the end of the trip - amazing!

Breathtaking! - Just when we thought we the best of Vancouver, things just keeps getting better. The zodiac boat tour hosted by Sewell’s Marina is definitely one of our favorites! Our guide Daryl was funny, polite and knowledgeable. This activity is A must do when in Vancouver.

However Sound Sea Safari lies up to its name. - The scenery and wildlife were great and the guide excellent. Great outing on a somewhat rough day. Hope all of our excursions measure up to this one.
