The trip was in total a perfect hit! The flight was really well done and our captain reacted to the weather conditions on the day the flight took place and it was just perfect. Best thing if you combine both activities (flight and suspension bridge) :)

Great experience of Vancouver saw all the sights and got a window seat. Note an audio guide wasn’t included with my tour. The capilano suspension bridge ticket is include (capilano itself is about 60 CAD)

What a great experience. I cannot say enough about the plane ride and the folks working at Harbour Air.

Fabulous! Great views, punctual, best way to do the suspension bridge is to add it on to the seaplane.

Really worth the money, great experience, great combo
