Whistler and the surrounding area is beautiful and it is nice to get out of town and to enjoy nature. Ria, my guide and driver was outstanding : knowledgeable, friendly, safety-conscious, and had great sense of humor. Bella, her pooch, joined us on the trip, which made it even more delightful. I would definitely recommend this trip.

My partner and I only had 2 weeks to cram in the whole of BC. This totally ticked all the boxes. We got to see the highlights and some of the smaller, quieter tourist spots. Steph, our driver, was ace and the people travelling with us made it our most memorable trip so far. We went in August so the attractions were busy which is to be expected. The activities included were great and the hikes were incredible, with Steph as a personal tour guide. We got the accommodation package which was worth the money and totally hassle free. I would recommend Moose Bus to anyone, even if it's simply a day trip.

I feel fortunate to have completed 119 dive-charters with Sea Dragon Charters. Every dive-charter off the Topline has been memorable, exploring the different sites in Howe Sound inaccessible by shore. The dive-boat is spacious and dive-station well laid out with shelves at the perfect height for backmount single tank or Twinset diving or benches for side-mount configurations for all my recreational and Technical diving needs. The boat is clean and organized. Enjoying a hot cup of freshly made soup at surface interval while having your tanks filled by the boat’s compressor for the second dive is a nice luxury most day-trip dives boats don’t have. If I have forgotten something at home, Sea Dragon Charters conveniently operates a full service dive-shop so that I don’t have to abort my dive day. Sea Dragon Charters owners, Kevin and Jan, and their well trained, experienced, and friendly team provide a fun filled day of diving. Most importantly, I have always felt safe on their boat. The prices are reasonable and I feel I have always received good value. Without any hesitation, I highly recommend them and I always look forward to the next dive excursion with them!
