Fantastic Flight Experience - It was fantastic, learned more about how the plane works , then off we went for high sky adventure , got up to 7500 feet and was able to see the wonderful scenery, tops of mountains and lakes then returned back to the airport, it lasted about 45 mins , really enjoyed ourselves, will have to do it again !

Amazing experience - How to fly a seaplane - We had a great experience in Squamish BC with Dylan, a flight instructor and sightseeing pilot. He explained the basics of flying and controlling an aircraft and we took off at the local airstrip. After that we had a breathtaking sightseeing flight with a water landing and start. Once in the air, I could take the controls and fly the plane supervised. Awesome. Thank you so much.

Hands-On Flying & Breathtaking Views - An amazing experience from start to finish. And it's very SAFE. The staff were welcoming and made the briefing clear and easy to follow. They explain the aircraft, and what to expect in the air. Once in the air, the pilot let me take the controls, and it was INCREADABLE. And while flying over the area - the views surrounding by mountains were absolutely breathtaking.
Highly recommend this for anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure!

David was an amazing pilot/guide, highly recommend Sea to Sky Air to anyone looking for an adventure close to Vancouver. We will be recommending this to everyone looking for a unique adventure. We will definitely be back to do more tours! Thank you so David for making this such a phenomenal day!

Grear milestone adventure - Wanted an unique adventure for my 60th Birthday but didnt want to jump out of a plane. What better than fly a plane. Chelsea was my pilot she is the best, friendly, easy going and made me feel safe.
Recommend it for any milestone.

great pilots, great tour! - We took a long flight down Howe sound - so spectacular to see familiar places from the air! The pilot was very calm with instructions , and learning to make the turns was easier than I thought it would be. She pointed out landmarks and we spotted a small pod of whales! Lots of time to look around as you go along. I am glad we took the longer flight!

Great surprise birthday gift! - We bought this experience as a birthday gift for our brother and we joined as passengers to be a part of it. David, our pilot, is an excellent instructor. He explained how the plane worked in layman terms and he was very calm and patient. The 30 minutes in the air went by so quickly and we got to see great views. We would definitely recommend this experience!

Amazing introductory flight experience - I typically feel sick and scared in small planes, but it was totally different this time. The flight was smooth and nice, views are amazing despite the rain. The instructor’s short lecture about the planes and basic flying skills was very fun and informative. Will definitely recommend to friends!

Thank you for an amazing experience.
