What To Expect

Get a unique view of the beautiful city of Vancouver, marveling at its scenic harbor, surrounding mountains and beautiful architecture, during this 20-minute seaplane flight. You'll take off from the water of Vancouver's busy downtown harbor, continuing on a aerial exploration of some of the city's beautiful skyline and lush pine tree-covered surroundings.

Start your seaplane flight from Canada Place in Downtown Vancouver. Depending on the time you select, your flight will leave at either 10:30am, 2:30pm or 6:45pm. Climb aboard your seaplane and feel the engines whir up to full power as you gracefully glide above the water and up into sky. 

During the course of your flight you'll be able to observe landmarks like Vancouver's emerald-green Stanley Park, its bustling downtown, and the buildings constructed for the city's hosting of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Then come back down to earth (or water, rather) touching back in the harbor with a splash, having enjoyed a one-of-a-kind view of this unique Canadian city.

Please note: flight times are approximate and subject to change depending on weather conditions and weight limits.

The tour was brief, but hit some excellent scenery. The final flyover of the city was the highlight, though. We had a sunny day, and that helped with the whole experience.

Great experience. We got lucky and the sun came out on a fully gloomy day. The ride was perfect amount of time, 30 minutes. Everybody gets a good seat, easy, informative, videos, and directions. And a complementary coffee while you wait was lovely.

William_W, Dec 2023
The weather wasn't great, and we didn't get to see as much as we would have otherwise. Other than that I can't fault the experience. The staff were friendly and proficient, and the ride was bumpy enough to make it interesting.
Awesome views over Vancouver
Omonele_N, Dec 2023
The views were spectacular. The ride was much smoother than I anticipated. The process was easy. We loved it.
