We were on the first tour of 2016 and what a great trip we had through Desolation Sound. The boat was comfortable, had everything we possibly needed, and the food – WOW was that absolutely delicious and most ingredients were directly from their garden!! The guides were filled with lots of information – ask them to tell you about the area. – Heidi, Colorado, USA

WOW, what a great trip to Desolation Sound with Beyond the Road Adventures. Captain Ted and his first mate Joanie were great guides. Orcas made the trip even more interesting. The lunch was excellent. Would do it again and highly recommend it!
We took the 5 hour Desolation Sound lunch trip after considering zodiac and kayak tours. For my wife with Multiple Sclerosis, the trip was fantastic!. She negotiated the ramp to the dock and onto the boat with her forearm crutches, inspiring another passenger, using a cane, to do the same. Ted and Joanie, the owners of the boat, were more than helpful, offering to pick up folks at another slip to avoid the steep, low-tide angle of the ramp. A call ahead will most certainly ease the way for anyone with moderate mobility issues. The boat itself has a generous length to width ratio, making for a stable platform and very comfortable ride. This is important for folks like my wife whose MS compromises her balance and stability. We found that, with help, every part of the boat was reachable, including the wonderful upper bridge with its all-around views and sociability. Joanie and Ted are absolutely wonderful hosts. An amazing lunch of home grown salad and perfectly grilled steelhead, topped off with a swim, was a real highlight. – John, Seattle, Washington, USA

We have traveled on the Agate Pass a few times, it is always delightful and leaves me with a feeling of being on a great adventure in slow travel mode. The Copeland Island Cruise is wonderful, the Desolation Sound cruise is spectacular but the three day slow travel trip left me with a feeling of exploring our Canada in a most intimate and loving way. I love this country and this mode of travel gave me the feeling of privilege of being one the the luckiest people on earth to be able to travel through it in comfort and in great company. With the backdrop of marine life, mountains, sunsets and beauty all around, I was at peace with the world. Thank you Ted and Joanie, you are the best! – Powell River, BC, Canada
Fabulous trip! You run a first class operation, and the day couldn’t have been more perfect. You are wonderful hosts, and the food was a 14 out of 10! Will tell all our friends. – Jessica, John and Angela
Beautiful relaxing day! Fantastic lunch, most beautiful prawns in the world! Thank you again, this was our second time with you. Hope to see you again! – Lydia and Roland, Saanich, BC, Canada
Thank you for a beautiful trip aboard the Agate Pass. What a sweet way to discover Desolation Sound. Lunch was so personal and tasty. Homegrown veggies, flowers and prawns – best we’ve ever had! A real pleasure sharing your company and experiences. A perfect trip for all of us. We wish you the best! – Chuck and Kathy
Thank you so much for a memorable and ‘supernatural’ time on your beautiful yacht. This is certainly going to be the high point of our vacation-and we will want to see you both again. You are charming, knowledgeable, and gracious hosts. You are so lucky to live here! Our best wishes – till we return! – Irene and Burke, Lauren, Ethan, and Kieran
