Visited Vancouver for a few days and this was my favorite tour. It’s 20-30 minutes flight time and you see quite a bit; even saw two whales from the air when pilot pointed them out. My first seaplane tour - takeoff & landing on the water was pretty cool!

It was amazing sealane tour over Vancouver Saw everything and it was incredible So glad we spent that time and choose that airline

This was AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL AND AWESOME ! The drive alone from Vancouver to Whistler was just so amazing, The changing of the leaves, the splendor of nature, pictures cannot do it justice. The seaplane flight was fantastic, the crew and pilot were great. The views awe inspiring. This is a must do adventure if you can go.

Fun! 20 minutes of the beautiful harbor and neighbor island. Takeoff and landing in the water. Saw a few whales and assorted birds.

Unfortunately due to weather conditions the plane trip was delayed for nearly 2 hours which didn’t leave us enough time to explore Victoria and Butchart Gardens. We decided on Butchart Gardens but didn’t have enough time to go back and meet BC Ferries connector. We took a transit bus to the Ferry and then had to pay another $38.20 for the ticket. Lucky we found the bus driver on the Ferry and we had a way to get back downtown. So whole trip was a bit of a disappointment.

Brittany was our pilot and was very friendly and sweet. She offered to take our pictures in front of the plane, described everything about our flight before we took off. We got to see a large freighters’ hold being loaded with grain from the sky. Our flight over the city and out over the surrounding harbor and waters was beautiful. The takeoffs and landings were very smooth. We felt safe and comfortable inside the plane. The terminal is down on the water and was not well marked from the main road next to it. Once we found it it was smooth sailing from there.

Great company… weather can always be tricky, so trips do get cancelled.. we were able to make it out, and the weather was beautiful. Even my husband, who is not really into flowers, loved Butchart gardens. Our bus driver was fabulous and informative, and the views on the way back in the sea plane were amazing. Highly recommend!!

Terrible customer service. Arrived early and they had planes with space available, but their policy would not allow changing flights. How ridiculous in this day. They could’ve sold my later flight while earlier flights left with empty seats.

Great experience. We booked an extended 45 minute flight. Pilot really friendly and good explanation of where he was flying. Fantastic to see the city from the air. Highly recommended.

This was a beautiful overview of Vancouver. It was plenty long to see what we needed to see. The price was very reasonable.

These seaplane flights are highly recommended, particularly as an unusual experience for British travellers. The Sea Otter aircraft may be old and a little tight, for comfort but they are maintained in excellent condition and flown by highly skilled pilots. As a later flight, in their day's programme, our departure was delayed by about 20 minutes. However, Captain Rob apologised and provided us with an extended flight, as compensation.... How good was that?! So, in place of a 45 minute 'experience', including taxiing and flight, we had nearly an hour I'm the air, with spectacular views of Vancouver city and the mountains to the North. Thank you, Captain Rob, and Harbour Air.

Trip was supposed to be for thirty minutes. We were in the air for fifteen minutes - did one big circle with not a single comment from the pilot to tell us what we were flying over Four of us paid close to $800 for a fifteen minute plane ride. We feel we were taken advantage of and would appreciate a full refund. Rob Louden

To Prospective flyers: This is hands down THE best way to see Vancouver so definitely do this if you can afford it. What makes Vancouver special is its location and the only way to see it and appreciate it is to fly above and see why the city is so highly rated. This is an outdoor city and all about nature and outdoor recreation. See why we love it! To Harbour Air: As you have read in other comments, the biggest complaints that tourists have of this experience are: (1) the lack of narration when on the flight, and (2) the annoyance that some folks may not get a window seat for optimum photo ops. SUGGESTIONS: have a short talk about where you plan to fly and what people will see (hopefully in front of a map with some photos ( or recommend to them - while waiting - a online short video featuring the experience and key landmarks they will see). Also encourage passengers to interact and share photos between them so that no one goes without some great photos. Maybe that can be done in a debrief at the end of the flight? Big shout out to the HA E-plane tech/PR crew who were outside under a tent explaining their new electric technology on the E-beavers. Super friendly and knowledgeable!

One of the best things I have done Absolutely loved it. Very efficient operation, pilot lovely. So exciting to be in a small plane above the bay

It was an amazing experience overall. The views were stunning , the staff were very organised too. Would recommend to anyone!
