I enjoyed this trip. Myself, Wife, and parents accompanied us on this tour. We found the hosts welcoming and fun to be around. They supplied us with jackets and pants which was nice since once your out of the harbor its cool from the wind. No drinks served but we where allowed to bring our own. Which was better since...

A well spent three hours on the water. Len and Sue are very accommodating and knowledgeable. Got to relax, enjoy the ride and see the sights from a different angle.

Found out about this completely by accident. I was looking for fun things to do in Victoria and by chance found a small mention about these guys on tripadvisor. I looked them up and called them to reserve a spot. Sue answered the phone and said we should just call when we get into Victoria, that way they could have... More
