I have to say that this experience would not have been as awesome were it not for one fantastic recommendation by the concierge at The Empress in Victoria. She convinced us that the best Victoria had to offer came at the hands of and man was she right! Our Captain Dave and Naturalist Vanessa were simply the most engaging and entertaining crew money could buy and their Scarab-style boat made the four-hour-tour as smooth and comfortable as an ocean liner. I am not kidding, I could not imaging bouncing around on the high seas for four hours strapped down in a rubber Zodiak. This boat had 1,000 horse power, comfortable padded bench seats and even a marine head! If you EVER have the chance do not hesitate to patronize Eagle Wing, I promise you won't regret it!
