The hosts were congenial, knowledgeable & worked diligently to maximize the ocean experience of the group!! Attentive to individual needs. Great hosts, sharing their home (the boat) with the group. Great value for the money. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience & would repeat it if able to. An amazing way to see the costal environment of Uculet. More

Our family had a wonderful time with this special small cruise trip. My wife and children were so amazed the what we saw and how exciting everything is during the trip. The owners were just simply pleasant and everything about this trip takes some great effort to describe. Wish the trip were longer but in reality it is not really... More

I spent several hours aboard the Archipelago Wildlife Cruise for a close friend's wedding. Although the day was rainy, we had a great time. The hosts gave us great hospitality and knew the area very well. Due to weather, we had to change plans and have the wedding on a different beach but this proved to be a good call... More

My wife and I wanted to get out on the water from Ucluelet and chose the Archipelago cruise. It was a really good decision. It was a 4-5 hour leisurely romp among islands and sealife that we will long remember fondly. Captain and crew, Alan and Toddy alternated at the helm, are great narrators with years of experience on the... More

We took this trip on 19th September 2011 as part of our honeymoon celebrations and we would say that it was the perfect addition to our visit on the west coast. We were blessed with really good weather on our Broken Group Islands cruise and, due to Al and Toddy's expert local knowledge, we saw an abundance of wildlife -... More

One of the best days I've ever experienced. Al and Toddy could not be more hospitable and professional. They have lived in and explored the area for many years and it shows. What a delight to see the area with such knowledgeable hosts. They love what they do and that makes all the difference in the world. This is a... More

I would highly recommend this cruise! If you ever get to Vancouver Island, this is the single most important thing to do. Don't go for the more economical whale watching factories. Toddy and Al make this cruise a special thing to remember. They take the time and are very knowledgeable! For us it was an extra special cruise because of... More
