Description
Start your adventure with a mesmerizing seaplane flight from Vancouver Harbour, soaring high above the city as you take in sweeping views of Stanley Park, the Lions Gate Bridge, Burrard Inlet, and the Strait of Georgia. As you fly over the scenic Gulf Islands, watch the landscape shift from urban skyline to rugged coastal beauty. After just 35 minutes, you’ll arrive in Victoria’s picturesque downtown Inner Harbour—right in the heart of British Columbia’s capital city.
The rest of the day is yours to explore at your own pace. Visit historic landmarks like the Parliament Buildings or Fairmont Empress Hotel, stroll through Beacon Hill Park, wander the waterfront, or indulge in local dining and boutique shopping. Victoria offers something for every traveler, whether you're into history, nature, or West Coast culture.
At the end of your visit, board the BC Ferries Connector for a comfortable coach ride to the Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal. From there, enjoy a scenic ferry crossing through Active Pass, with views of the Southern Gulf Islands and possibly even marine wildlife. After the sailing, you’ll reboard the coach for a relaxing ride back to downtown Vancouver, with drop-off at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.
Please note: The return journey by coach and ferry may take approximately 3.5 to 4 hours, depending on traffic and ferry schedules. It’s a slower-paced, but scenic and stress-free way to wrap up your day trip.
