It was delightful. Be sure to take a nice thick sweater and a rain jacket (with hood) and maybe a toque and gloves as well, the moist cool air really penetrates. We saw 7 humpback whales, several rafts of sea otters, etc. . The crew is delightfully friendly and the on-land accommodation (in very small villages!) was friendly, clean and quiet.
We loved our 3 day Esperanza working vessel trip! We enjoyed excellent food, great accommodation, interesting company and very good service from all the staff and crew involved.
We rate this adventure high on our 'must do' list and encourage anyone and everyone to book a trip on the MVUchuck lll.
We were able to book an excellent B&B (Les Arbres) the night before and thankfully even had our dog cared for by a lovely kind lady in Gold River while we were onboard for 3 days, both referred to us by Julie in the Get West office.
The scenery was spectacular and crew both friendly and helpful. Particularly the lady that prepared lunch and breakfast
The actual accomodation offered at Kyuquot was well past its sell by date. That included the beds (bunk beds for couples ) the sheets and pillows
The meal provided was at best edible and was served teppid
That said the breakfast served on the ship was fantastic
Overall the community could do so much more that just dump us and feed us with food that was just "OK". I really dont think this trip (2 day) was value for money - next time I think I will do just the day trip
Amazing trip with equally amazing crew. Defintely a highlight of the summer. Highly recommend this to anyone.
A wonderful way to see in a very short time the stunning scenery of the West Coast - on a classic 'still working 'ship of past.
I cannot express in so many words what an incredible experience we had on the 3 day cruise we had last week. From the incredible scenery, wildlife viewing and the hospitality of the crew and shore hosts was beyond compare!
