Itinerary

  • Whistler Air (Pass By)

    Arrive at Green Lake, just a 5-min drive from downtown Whistler, and board your floatplane for a scenic flightseeing experience. British Columbia is world-renowned for its awe-inspiring natural beauty, and seeing the region from high above is an ideal way to take in all of the incredible sights. About 15,000 years ago, glaciers comprised this entire area, piled so deeply that only the tops of the highest mountain peaks saw the sun. These glaciers carved the spectacular scenery that exists today.

  • Garibaldi Park (Pass By)

    During your flightseeing tour, sit back in your comfortable floatplane and marvel at the incredible landscapes as you fly above massive glaciers, rugged mountain peaks and volcanic formations. Marvel at the lush alpine meadows of the Coast Mountain Range and the turquoise glacial waters of mile-high Garibaldi Lake

  • Black Tusk Trail (Pass By)

    One of the most distinguishable mountains in BC is the Black Tusk. Visible from many different heights in Whistler and the Garibaldi region, it is often talked about and almost always identified aloud when viewed in any form; people can’t help themselves from calling out “Black Tusk!” when they see it in pictures or from afar.

You need to do this!!!!

Published on Sep, 2024

Worth every penny! Take off and landing on the lake was so smooth. Saw the mountain ranges and Glacier much closer than I expected. It was amazing.

AWE INSPIRING BEAUTY SEAPLANE RIDE

Published on Sep, 2024

This was AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL AND AWESOME ! The drive alone from Vancouver to Whistler was just so amazing, The changing of the leaves, the splendor of nature, pictures cannot do it justice. The seaplane flight was fantastic, the crew and pilot were great. The views awe inspiring. This is a must do adventure if you can go.

Incredible scenery

Published on Aug, 2024

This was the best adventure scenic tour I have taken in N America! It was stunningly beautiful! We flew by incredible glaciers and lakes that otherwise could not have been seen except for on tv. But this was right out our windows! Fantastic!

Simply Stunning

Published on Jul, 2024

First time on a float plane and it was very smooth - a little bumpy in places but much better than expected. The views were amazing - the colors of the lakes, the snow capped mountains, flying over the Peak to Peak gondola and much more.

Magical!

Published on Jul, 2024

Absolutely magical experience, highly recommend! Definitely need to be fine with some turbulence (which I am) but you get really close to the glaciers and there is constantly something to look at. Pics could never do it justice.
