My wife, My son and I were treated to an amazing trip by our pilot Dylan. Our first time on a sea plane and it’s a memory that will last the rest of our lives. It’s an absolute must if you can. Our best experience in Canada. Thanks Dylan and Tofino air.

Booked the Sunset flight well in advance - as a treat for a friends Special Birthday - and the weather on the evening (mid September) was perfect
From the initial briefing to photos after the flight Taylor was excellent - very knowledgeable and friendly and we saw some amazing sights over and around Tofino which is not possible any other way.
A unique experience - well worth the money

A trip up to a remote lake in the Beaver. Great way to see the sights up in a float plane . Saw some Grey whales and Taylor was very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this in Tofino as a top notch experience.

We took the Sand to Summit Tour on the last day of our visit to Tofino & it was the best ending to an amazing trip! Weather was perfect, the pilot Craig was great, let my hubby sit in the front & get a first hand view of flying the wee classic De Havilland Beaver! Awesome doesnt even come close. We even saw whales & sealions. Thanks to Madison & Craig for making it happen!

Our pilot Craig was fabulous! My wife's first flight in a small plane and he made her feel comfortable with a smooth and safe ride. Circled a pod of Orca's and then some breathtaking scenic views of the shorelines and landscape. Would go again in a heartbeat!!
