Got my family name wrong, but booking finally found. Seaplane journey smooth and fast. The tour agency lady gave wrong instruction on where to board the bus, but luckily we found it. Only 3 boarding time slots for bus to take us to Butchart Garden. Luckily, weather was good and we had enough time for taking photos, tea at the Dining Room and Harbourfront stroll.

On time departure... great first time experience in Turbo Otter. We had a great flight and the beautiful scenery was even more amazing from the air! The Gardens were lovely with their fall color, and the entire experience was so well organized and planned. Graham, who drove the bus to Buchart gardens, shared details about the area from his experience growing up on the island.

Nice experience

I was a little hesitant for the seaplane but in fact the takeoff and landing are very smooth and the view to go to Victoria is superb. Very easy then to find the bus to go to the gardens which are magnificent. Very good organization and a lot of kindness We had a great day
