キャンベル川：ビュート入り江グリズリーウォッチングツアー＆ボートライド

We did two tours with Campbell River Whale Watching - the 4 hour whale watching in a covered boat and the bear watching at Bute; they were excellent. What came through from both guides was respect and passion for the animals and the environment. They were keen to share their knowledge and provided insight on both the wildlife and the ecosystem as a whole. Both tours were pure magic - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company. The food and snacks were excellent too!

This tour went beyond its selling point from the Homalco welcome song from Hunter to the orca and humpback encounters to and from the grizzly viewing! The grizzly’s were out in force and we were all kept at a safe and respectful distance from the animals and they did not seem to mind our presence. The local First Nations guides KK and Todd were brilliant with all their local knowledge and wit! Overall cannot reccomend this highly enough! Thank you!

Our tour guides were Zoe & Laura who were both fantastic. The First Nation guides were so knowledgable and kept us safe - it was a true honour to be allowed on their grounds. We were lucky enough to see several bears including mothers & their cubs thanks to the spotting of the guides, however, the most amazing experience came when we were able to experience a bear walk within 5 metres in front of us along the river. This one of the best days of our lives and we are truly grateful to all who were involved. In addition I would like to mention whoever does the catering - I am coeliac and have a lactose allergy and rarely get catered for on trips. On this trip not only did I get safely catered for but I also get the the equivalent as everyone else which anyone with dietary allergies will tell you is a really big deal! Thank you so much - it was the icing on an amazing day

An absolutely great experience and also highly recommended. The staff did a great job on the boat and the Native Americans were also great.

What a fantastic day! Really well organised. Geoff and Laura couldn’t be more helpful and were as excited at seeing the wildlife as we were. First we saw a humpback whale. Then off to Bute Inlet for Grizzly Bear tour. We had a delicious lunch then into buses to find the bears. We saw 12 bears! Some were catching the spawning salmon. No rushing. We were allowed to have time to watch the bears. Once back on the boat Geoff found us a couple of male Orca. Loved it, what a day!!

We had a great day out with Jarek as our guide. We spotted humpback whales and seals on the boat ride over and then 7 grizzly bears with the guides at the various towers you visit throughout the tour. The food was really good and plenty of it at lunch.

As a surprise 60th birthday gift, we spent the day with Alex and Laura on the All Day Grizzly tour to Bute Inlet. Alex is the most amazing Captain. We had some rough water for part of the run and he handled it awesomely. We always felt safe. He and Laura both kept us well informed about where we were and what was up next. They stopped or slowed at any wildlife viewing opportunity of which there were many! After a wonderful locally catered lunch (and snack along the way) We were joined by Kailin and Conrad at Homalka Tours and given the most amazing Grizzly viewing experience. 8 grizzlies in all including a mama and her cubs. They seemed to think this was a quiet day! I would highly recommended this tour and we will definitely come again!! Our photo ops were amazing! Thank you thank you thank you! What a fantastic Thanksgiving and the most amazing early birthday gift! So grateful!!

Amazing experience. Saw 11 Grizzlies including a nursing cub; a pod of killer whales, 2 humpback whales, Loads of Seals, Sea Lions and Eagles. Bet our guide was the best. Along with Homalco guides who allowed for extra viewing time when we came across more bears.

From start to finish, the tour was exceptional. Our boat captain and naturalist were friendly, helpful, and informative. The boat ride was spectacular, with unexpected viewings of many humpback whales and eagles along the way! Lunch and snacks were delicious and the view from the lunch spot could not be beat. Our bear tour with the First Nations guides was wonderful. They were funny and friendly and informative, with great stories intermixed with personal experiences and information about the wildlife, land and indigenous people. We were at the tail end of bear season so felt extremely lucky and satisfied to have a close encounter with one magnificent grizzly. It was as exciting as I expected. The ride home was also beautiful, with another unexpected sighting of an entire colony of frolicking stellar sea lions. Our boat captain and guide knew exactly where to take us and how to position us to get the most out of all wildlife viewings. I'd recommend this trip to anyone able to make the trip up to Campbell River BC.

Incredible experience! The tour accommodates 30 people, but it doesn’t feel too crowded. We got to see whales on the way out and sea lions and dolphins on the way back. We stopped at a few viewing spots and saw 5 bears in total, including a mother and cub, which sticked around for quite some time. The hosts were fantastic and getting some indigenous background and having indigenous guides was incredible!
