July 2 to 7 2024 Twelve strangers arrived at the departure point and returned as friends. Spectacular trip phenomenal service and fabulous food. You need to be able to climb steep stairs. No elevators. There are no mobility aids. Being able to walk is a necessity. Stunning scenery and tranquility, the Aurora is very quiet and stable. Hardly feels like being aboard a boat.

Fabulous trip... age range 60-85, mostly but not all couples. Fabulous food, engaged and engaging crew. Saw places I would never see on ferry, learnt a lot about BC Coast, its communities and logging industry - great adventure.

The most wonderful experience. 6 days of absolute bliss. Captain Ron & his crew were amazing & treated us royally & were so knowledgeable. Can’t say enough about the crew. Enjoyed them all. Always great interaction with all of us. Nothing was missed. The meals were exquisite. Thanks Janet. I am still in awe of all that you & Paige prepared & served. We saw humpbacks, orcas, dolphins. Swam at 3 beaches & had amazing beautiful clear, sunny hot days. A spectacular mtn around every corner with even a glimpse of Mt Waddington. So missing everyone & soooo much fun. Jan & Bill B. Ps…we did gain weight but so worth it.

Fabulous crew who put safety and humour, as well as competence, at the forefront. The food was incredible - thanks to Janet, our chef, and Jackie, our steward, for making every meal a treat. We saw the real BC - work that drives our province - as well as the natural beauty. Orcas the last day, porpoises another, eagles, marine life, interesting stops along the way. This is a trip that you can do at any time in your life. The clientele was a little older but all so interesting. Not a trip if you need to do cardio every day, but for five days, wait and hit the gym when you get home! Every day was a gem.

We saw fantastic scenery with ample opportunities for coastal walking exploration plus a 4 X4 trip on forestry trails. The meals were healthy and beautifully proportioned and presented, and most importantly it was a wonderful casual and friendly atmosphere on board. Perry H.
