Fantastic experience! We saw so many grizzlies and really enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere. Our guides were fantastic and knowledgeable.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a fantastic experience and got to see so many grizzlies while enjoying the beautiful atmosphere. Our guides will be delighted to know their knowledge and passion made your trip even more memorable. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Well it was raining constantly with no chance of letting up. Thought they might cancel but went ahead. Best decision ever. Seating inside boat, bus to viewstations which are covered. Best day ever seeing 6 Grizzly bears and 1 cub to the tour operators shock due to weather conditions. Filmed one of the bears eating a salmon out of the river close by just breathtaking to watch. Also saw the salmon swimming upstream jumping in and out of the water along with an Eagle. Lunch provided with snacks. Well worth flying from Australia to experience this.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We’re delighted you decided to join us even with the rain—it really shows that every day on the river brings its own magic. Seeing six Grizzlies and a cub in those conditions is truly special, and watching a bear catch a salmon right in front of you is unforgettable. We’re so glad you also enjoyed the salmon run, eagle sightings, and the comforts of the trip, including lunch and snacks. It means a lot that you travelled all the way from Australia to be with us, and we’re honoured the experience was worth the journey. We hope to welcome you back again for more incredible wildlife moments!
An excellent trip despite only seeing one Grizzly Bear! Unfortunately the day we went on this trip the bears were very well fed (plentiful salmon stocks this year) and the river levels high (it was raining heavily) so the bears were not keen to come out to feed. However we had a great day looking for them as well as and watching the salmon, herons and other wildlife along the rivers. Our trip leader Andreas was fabulous and did everything he could to find us bears, even though his efforts were in vain. We did see a Humpback Whale on the way back though - so that was some compensation. Disappointing but there's no guarantees on a wildlife trip. The whole booking process was easy and the trip extremely well run.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! You’re absolutely right – with plentiful salmon and high river levels this season, the bears can sometimes stay out of sight. We’re glad to hear that Andreas did everything he could to give you the best chance and that you still enjoyed the salmon run, herons, and other wildlife along the rivers. Wonderful that a humpback whale also made an appearance on your way back! While wildlife is never guaranteed, we’re very happy you found the trip well run from start to finish, and we truly appreciate your kind words. We hope to welcome you back again for another adventure!
All I can say is FANTASTIC! We had the best day! Excellent service by the entire crew and Captain Andreas. The Klahoose First Nation guides were amazing! We spent at least an hour with a sow and two cubs right by the viewing platform. It was the best surprise! We stopped the boat near a waterfall for coffee, tea and muffins. They provided a box lunch before heading back. It was very good and they accommodated dietary needs. Very well worth the money spent! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic day with us. Captain Andreas and our crew will be so happy to know their efforts made your experience memorable. We’re especially glad you enjoyed the time spent with the sow and her cubs at the platform—what an incredible surprise to share! It’s also great to hear that the coffee stop by the waterfall, the lunch, and our attention to dietary needs added to your day. We truly appreciate your kind words about the Klahoose First Nation guides—they bring such valuable knowledge and heart to every tour. Thank you again for joining us and for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Had a great day out. It involves a 2 hour boat ride to Toba Inlet to see the Grizzlies but we had perfect weather so it was very picturesque and good discussion on way out. We saw Mums and their cubs at different locations and a male bear. We also saw whales and seals on the boat journey. Our host and guides were very friendly and accommodating.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the boat ride, the stunning scenery, and of course the incredible wildlife encounters with the bears, whales, and seals. It’s wonderful that our guides helped make the day both welcoming and memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!
This morning I arrived in port full of expectations. I saw the presentation of the tour and it seemed valid. I really wanted to see grizzlies eat salmon. The crossing to Toba was fast. We arrived and they took us to the platforms. Lots of salmon in the river, not one bear. Like this all morning. Before 1 o'clock, their office-like hours ended, they took us back to the boat and goodnight ringers. To see the bears in my opinion on this tour you need a good dose, but good, of "factor c." as they say in Italy, because the time devoted in substance is too short and they do not waste to stretch if they do not find anything. As soon as you arrive you realize that it is difficult. On the other hand it is difficult to see even a person, even if you know his habits in daily life, if you only have about 3 hours to intercept him. Let alone a bear that has a territory much larger than a neighborhood! The ride itself is nice, on the way back luckily we saw an orca, which saved the day a bit! However, my dream of seeing even one bear feeding on salmon remained in the drawer. And given the distance from home so it will stay, I suppose. I would have liked more effort. We're not in the office with fixed hours. For people, this may be their only chance. We would have liked to have stayed longer, given us and the bear more chances.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear that you left the tour disappointed. As much as we wish we could guarantee sightings, grizzly bears are truly wild animals with large territories, and their presence at the river depends on many natural factors, especially salmon movement, tides, and weather conditions. While our time at the viewing platforms is carefully coordinated with our First Nation partners to give the best opportunities for sightings, some days nature doesn’t cooperate. Unfortunately, our time at the Klite River is limited because other tour operators also visit the same area later in the day. To avoid overcrowding and to minimize stress on the bears, each group has a set viewing window. This ensures the experience remains safe and respectful for both guests and wildlife. We understand how important this experience was for you and that it may have been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Your feedback about wanting more time is appreciated, and we will take it into account when reviewing our operations. We’re glad the orca encounter on the way back offered a highlight, but we recognize it doesn’t replace the excitement of seeing a grizzly. Thank you again for joining us and for sharing your honest thoughts—it helps us keep improving while respecting the bears, salmon, and the natural rhythm of this special place.
Honestly it was such an amazing adventure, got to see A few Grizzly bears including a mom and her cubs. Well worth the money, all the staff were helpful, friendly and very knowledgeable. Also got to see 3 Killer Whales and a couple of humpback whales on the way back too, also spotted some vultures and an eagle too. Was a very early start but well worth it. 🐻🐋🦅
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the adventure and had the chance to see grizzlies, including a mom with her cubs—that’s always such a special encounter. The bonus sightings of killer whales, humpbacks, eagles, and vultures made it a truly unforgettable day! We really appreciate your kind words about our team as well. Early mornings in the inlet are always worth it, and we’re so glad you felt the same. We’d love to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!
We had an incredibly beautiful day. Parking of the RV can be 100 meters away (free) and the welcome was cordial and the breefing good. The boat trip to the Toba inlet was about 2 1/2 hours sailing and Captain Jos stopped for the Orcas we saw along the way. The boat was comfortable and you could sit inside and stand on the aft deck outside to take pictures. Upon arrival the guides of the Klahoos “tribe” were already waiting for us and they showed us the Grizzlies. We didn't get them on a platter, but the guides did everything they could and we enjoyed the sight of the 3 Grizzlies. What beautiful animals! We spent about 4 hours with the bears and commuted from viewing platform to viewing platform. During the return trip by boat we got a more than excellent packed lunch and we also saw killer whales and a sea otter. Had a great day and very satisfied with Eagle Eye Adverntures! Also nice that owners are (were) Dutch.
Wonderful excursion! Compliments for the Klahoose guides, especially Troy gave nice explanations, also about his ancestors. Enjoyed the view of grizzly Patience which consumed 3 salmon during the time we were there. You have to be patient, we only saw a bear in our third place, but that is part of the tension. Beautiful boat trip to Toba Inlet where we see orcas, whales, porpoises, bald eagle, seal and sea lion.
We had a great day, our skipper, Andreas, was very engaging and knowledgable. Upon arrival at the Klahoose Nation site, we were warmly greeted and taking to the viewing locations. We managed to see a bear cub and mother almost immediately and we were able to get some amazing photos. Altogether a great day out and some great scenes of British Columbia.
