Cruising Tours are non-kayaking tours
Choose your area, choose your interests for a stimulating and informative holiday! What you will see and do will depend on your choice of tour, but you can always count on great food, excellent service, comfortable accommodation and beautiful surroundings.
Join us on a journey along BC’s remote coast with expert instructors and workshop leaders. Their passion and extensive knowledge enhance your cruise experience aboard the Columbia III, a vessel that’s been navigating these waters for over 60 years.
Coastal History Cruising Tours

Our Coastal History Cruising Tours combine cruising the beautiful waters of Desolation Sound, Bute Inlet, the Discovery Islands and the Broughton Archipelago with stories and tales from long ago enthusiastically told by our onboard historian.
More Info“Thanks for an amazing trip. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the BC coast and its history. I felt I really got a sense of the First Nations presence in this area for the first time.”
