From our first inquiries to the final docking, our trip has been first class all the way.

An unbelievable experience with the most dedicated and involved crew I’ve ever experienced. Every day was ‘magical’. The bar for my next adventure now is high! A true way to tick off a bucket list item in such a successful way. Thanks so much to all the fabulous crew.

What a magical and awe-inspiring adventure!
-Jane Robinson, Vancouver, BC
I can't believe we're already at the end of our wonderful week on the central coast; I had no concept, a the beginning, of the riches we would see. Thank you! -and for the wonderful meals- I could go on and on! I look forward to another trip sometime in the future.
-Gillian Hodge, Maple Ridge, BC
I am most grateful for the mystical encounter with the Desolation realm under the wonderful leadership of each member of the crew – May ‘Wonder, Love, and Awe’ prevail!
-David Spence, B.C., Canada
Just returned from their Whales and Totems trip, 6 fantastic days out on the MapleLeaf. The crew led by Tavish were instrumental in making this a trip we will never forget! We saw and experienced so much, the food was incredible, we met and made friends with the other guests nothing more to say it simply exceeded our expectations on so many levels.
-Alec W., New Zealand
This week has been indescribable. Thank you to the crew for an adventure that has been both restful and exciting. Amazing food, orcas, whales, and sailing the Salish Sea with Neil on the bowsprit. So many smiles and memories made. Thank you, thank you!

Once I saw the photo of the Swell and checked her out from the article written in the summer edition of BC magazine in 2015, I knew from that moment on that was how I was going to see Alaska.
Our activities fulfilled everything I anticipated doing and then some. We sat in hot springs, a few did some fishing and we were treated to a fresh halibut dinner, grizzly bear watching, hiking in a rainforest to an observatory to see salmon spawning, we were treated to amazing performances by humpback whales, killer whales and porpoises, got to get close to an icefield to hear and see calving taking place, even had ice chips chopped from "bergie bits" by Miles, kayaking, hikes to waterfalls, hikes on beaches...never a dull moment. We had wonderful conversations and new friendships were made.
-Maria Waller, Vancouver, BC
This ‘journey’ was beyond expectation. The natural environment to which we were introduced is beyond belief and will stay with me for the rest of my life. I hope that the knowledge we have learned will spread far and wide and enable this area of Canada to remain totally unchanged.
-Mo Tipples, Manitoba
This was an outstanding trip! AT last count, I have travelled to 32 countries – but this trip will stand out as one of the best.
