Danni our captain took us on a fantastic journey through from the urban coastal shores of Vancouver city right the way to the remotest parts of the Indian Arm glacial fjord which was just stunning. Great navigating ,great humour and great itinerary with lots of very interesting stories thrown in . Loved the extra surprise at the end ! No telling !!

5.00This was a fantastic tour. Our tour guide Simon was very knowledgeable, entertaining and most of all passionate about sharing his knowledge. He taught us a great deal about both the Vancouver port and its operations, and the geological history and natural elements of the Indian Arm fjord. I highly recommend this tour and Simon.
Danny the great

3.00I wish guide used a speaker system. Couldn’t hear him a lot especially as it was pouring rain most of the trip and we had to have the hoods of our suits up. Can’t control the weather. I’m sure it would have been a better experience in a nice day.
great tour
