Top Vancouver Nature and Wildlife Tours

This was a great way to spend the day after our cruise landed in Vancouver before our late flght. We got to see the major attractions. The only downfall was not having enough time at the market for lunch - we were only there an hour and needed at least and hour and half if not two. With so much to see at the other stops, that was basically the only place to grab lunch. Kaelen was a fine host for the day.

Michael was so knowledgeable and informative on our tour. We were so fortunate to be the only 2 on the tour so we felt like it was personal and educational as we were able to ask many questions. Michael had so many personal stories to share and it seemed like we were just out with a friend. Lunch at the Sandbar was excellent and stopping at the Guinness World record ice cream shop with 238 flavors was a real treat. I highly recommend this your.

This was one of the best tours that we have been on. We both feel that we got so much more out of the places that we visited, benefiting from Kenson’s knowledge of Chinese culture and customs. We loved the personal stories that Kenson shared with us as he told us about Chinese customs. The food was amazing! Kenson educated our group about what to look for in certain types of dim sum, the traditional meaning of the dishes, etc. Yummmmm!!!

This tour was on pedal-assisted e-bikes, so you do need to pedal (there’s no throttle to let it power you completely). With that being said, we were able to keep up without trouble, using the bike gears and the pedal-assist settings. Each bike has a small bag on the handlebars to hold a water bottle and your camera and/or phone, and some had saddlebags that could hold a small bag or backpack. (We were able to leave a bag of clothes at the shop which was centrally located, just a block from the CF Pacific Centre mall.) Before we left on the tour, our guide Ella gave us a thorough safety briefing. She covered hand signals, how to navigate the various bike lanes (some were two-way and some were one-way), and explained that we’d be on some busy areas of the bike trails. She assured us that she’d keep an eye on us and even asked for a volunteer to be at the back of our group. We were all given helmets and wristbands with the phone number of the bike shop if you were separated from the group. Bikes were labeled with our names, so you’d know which bike was yours when stopping at various locations. In addition to stopping along the way to keep our group together, we stopped at quite a few locations where Ella would give us some history and information about the site and allow us to take pictures. This e-bike tour allowed us to cover a lot of ground in Vancouver, as active participants (not sitting on a tour bus).

This excursion turned into something more than I ever expected. Mark was a great guide and very informative. We thought seeing the seals was exciting but the icing on the cake was experiencing 2 breaching humpback whales that we got to see. It was incredible.

We had a great experience from start to finish. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. Everyone was so great from captains, to the staff at check in. We saw about 17 killer whales and stayed with them for a while so everyone got great pictures and videos. Our guide brought the book around and showed us which whales we were seeing. It was such a great day that we will remember forever.

Absolutely breathtaking! The VanDusen Gardens are a treasure and should not be missed! Every part of the garden is a treat for the senses. After a leisurely stroll through the gardens, we had a fun time trying to find our way through the maze, and then, a lovely lunch in the cafe.

​I had an amazing time on the Vancouver to Victoria seaplane adventure. The views were stunning, and I took a lot of photos while we were in the air. The staff members were very nice and helpful throughout the entire trip. The return journey by ferry and bus was also very smooth and well organized. Highly recommended for anyone visiting!
