5.00When there was a chance my tour wasn't going to have enough people, Water Adventures was very quick to offer an alternative. Luckily my tour was filled and our tour guide, Cassidy was so sweet and informative. She let us know the history of all of the different locations and species growing around every stop. The waterfall was definitely my favorite.
Great weather today....

5.00Seeing the wildlife was an absolute highlight of the trip. We saw Bald eagles, seals, starfish, and so many moon jellyfish spawning at the falls. Captain Alec was very knowledgeable and made the trip so much fun.
More beautiful than you can imagine

5.00This is the best 3 hours you will spend in Vancouver! I was traveling with my sister and our teenage children. This was the best possible way for us to see the beauty of Vancouver. The boat takes you to sites that are not accessible by car. So it is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The jumpsuits feel silly at first but they keep you warm and dry. They are a must! My kids enjoyed every moment and smiled the whole time. At one point I looked at my sister and she had tears in her eyes because she was overcome by the beauty. The sites you see will stay with you forever! Our tour guide Marco was wonderful. I will recommend this tour to anyone visiting Vancouver.
