Alan did a superb job guiding us into the beautiful back country and to the western shores of Vancouver Island. He was everything you'd want in a tour guide: knowledgeable, flexible, personable and a very safe driver. We are an older couple and weren't up to walking long distances, so Alan tailor-made the tour for us that was easy on our knees and yet encompassed all the breathtaking sights the region has to offer. We have been on many good private tours over the years, but this one was right there at the top of the list of favorites for us. We highly, HIGHLY recommend Alan and Surfside Adventure Tours.
