Seaplane Flight & Capilano Suspension Bridge

About this experience

This package starts with Seair's City Skyline flight: 20 minutes over Stanley Park, English Bay, the Lions Gate Bridge and the North Shore Mountains, with GPS audio commentary. After landing you walk a short way to the shuttle at Canada Place, which takes you to Capilano Suspension Bridge Park in North Vancouver.

At the park you have about two hours on the Viator itinerary, and the admission is in the price. Seair's own page for the tour describes the 137-metre bridge hanging 70 metres above the Capilano River, plus the Treetops Adventure and Cliffwalk walkways through the Douglas firs. The shuttle brings you back to Canada Place, and the day runs 3 to 5 hours in all.

It is new on Viator and has only one review so far, so there is little to lean on. Seair's own fare is C$269 per adult and C$139 per child. Bookings made within 12 hours of the tour may take longer to confirm. The listing marks it not wheelchair accessible.

  • A 20-minute seaplane flight with audio commentary
  • Capilano Suspension Bridge Park admission included
  • Shuttle between Canada Place and the park, both ways
  • Treetops Adventure and Cliffwalk inside the park
  • Small flight groups: 9 guests at most
