Overview

45 minutes

Mobile ticket

Experience even more of British Columbia’s beauty on this extended version of our most popular seaplane tour. While Vancouver’s skyline, mountain ranges, and coastline are stunning from land and water, nothing compares to seeing them from above.

This 45-minute seaplane experience offers an enhanced aerial adventure for those wanting to see more in less time. Departing from downtown Vancouver’s Coal Harbour, soar over the city, Stanley Park, and Lions Gate Bridge before venturing deeper into the wilderness. Your expert pilot will follow a seasonal route that may include views of the rugged Coast Mountains, scattered islands of Howe Sound, and forested inlets unreachable by road or boat.

Compared to the standard Vancouver Panorama Scenic Seaplane Tour, this extended version adds 15 extra minutes of flight time and offers more remote scenery. Ideal for travelers seeking a deeper look at BC’s natural beauty.

  • Seaplane Trip. Vancouver.

    It was very good. Only issue is that on one side of the plane the seat row consisted of two seats next to each other. So one person was not against a window. It did not affect my wife and I. But had it I would not have been very happy. We both really enjoyed this flight.

  • Great flight.

    Stunning views of the surrounding natural areas (not so much a city flyover). Shorter than advertised (35 minutes, not 45) but still worth it.

  • Vancouver from the air

    Flight was good but not what Viator advertised - an hour and 20 mins “experience” I have complained at this misleading statement. Flight was only 35mins. But the experience includes walking to terminal and then waiting for boarding!! I intended to book direct but changed my mind when Viator advertised a longer trip. They have not changed there wording for this trip but no apology or refund for misleading me. Be warned this company is not to be trusted.
