Alan was very engaging...

Julie_A, Jun 2025
Alan was very engaging and fully immersed us in the history and culture of Vancouver Island. He was able to take us to out of the way spots to see things that would have been otherwise missed.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you so much, Julie! It was a real pleasure taking you on the Wild Pacific Adventure and sharing some of the hidden gems along the way. I’m glad you enjoyed the deeper look into Vancouver Island’s history and culture—that’s what makes this region so special to explore. Wishing you all the best on your future travels, and I’d love to see you back on the island someday! Warm regards, Alan Surfside Adventure Tours

Excellent time with Alan from SurfSide Tours

David_B, Jun 2024
We had two day tours back-to-back with Alan at SurfSide Tours and they were the highlight of our vacation! (The other tour was named "The Ultimate Group Package Tour of Victoria.") As parents, we found Alan to be friendly, conscientious, interesting, informed, and intelligent. Our kids (14 and 11 yo) describe him as fun, caring, knowledgeable, funny, happy, and a good storyteller. We lucked out with perfect weather and this tour fulfilled my daughter's lifelong dream to visit tide pools (we're from South Dakota). We spent about an hour and a half at Botanical Beach taking pictures of the waves and tiny ecosystems on the beach, but all the other stops were beautiful, too. Right when he picked us up at our hotel, Alan said he had a "surprise" for my daughter that day... and sure enough, a couple hours later, he caught a lizard at Lizard Lake that she instantly fell in love with! Alan just made everything work out so well; I can't think of anything that could have been better!

Thank you!

Personal and made special by Darwin

Lee_O, Aug 2023
We have been to Vancouver Island before but never seen beyond Victoria. This tour was exceptional; taken all over the south west coast through to Sooke. The scenery was spectacular. Darwin made this tour personal to us and I recommend this to anyone wanting to get off the tourist trail.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hi Lee, It was a real pleasure touring your son and yourself to our beautiful SW Coast, as well as the rest of the group on the Victoria City Tour. I also appreciate you taking the time to leave a kind review. All the best! Darwin Surfside Adventure Tours
