Princess Louisa Signature Tour

Discover the stunning landscapes of British Columbia with the Princess Louisa Signature Tour. Glide by floatplane and boat through fjords, waterfalls, and lush forests in this unforgettable 3-hour adventure.

Located in the rugged coastlines of British Columbia, the Princess Louisa Inlet is a highlight for adventurers seeking pristine wilderness and spectacular seascapes. The Princess Louisa Signature Tour offered by Egmont Adventure Centre delivers an up-close encounter with nature’s raw beauty, combining aerial and marine views on a 3-hour journey that captivates from start to finish. This tour stands out because it offers a rare chance to witness the iconic Chatterbox Falls from above via floatplane, revealing its towering cliffs and lush surroundings in a way that ground-based visits simply can't match.

After the aerial perspective, you'll glide smoothly over crystalline waters on a boat, soaking in the glacial-carved fjord’s sweeping vistas, rocky outcrops, and verdant forests. With gourmet refreshments served amidst this natural theater, it’s a luxurious take on wilderness immersion. The route takes visitors into one of BC’s most treasured protected areas, part of the coastal fjord system that’s teeming with wildlife and geological marvels.

The cliffs surrounding the inlet showcase layers of volcanic rock, and the vibrant greenery screams of the temperate rainforest that dominates this region. The tour’s mix of adventure and comfort makes it both accessible and unforgettable. Perfect for those who crave high-impact scenery paired with smooth luxury, this experience is a standout in British Columbia’s outdoor scene.

Egmont Adventure Centre’s signature tour is also an excellent way to support local conservation efforts, as the region is protected and preserved for future generations.
