Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I see the previous review mentions the owner's abrasiveness, but it's possible he's just tired at the end of the tourist season. More importantly, he assured me over the phone that we would not be stressing out the salmon with our presence, and they would just swim around us like we're a floating log. Instead, the fish were fleeing at the sight of us, darting in every direction as fast as they could swim to get away from us. This was true in deeper waters, where they had lots of room to escape and especially when I was rushing at them in shallow, fast water. Speaking with a few local fishers later, they all agreed the fish would panick at the sight of us, mistaking us for seals, especially, when they're being hunted by seals in that area.
I'm guessing that few of the foreign tourists realize that these salmon have achieved the incredible, by returning to spawn after 4 years living in the ocean, and with their numbers declining rapidly the last thing they need is additional stress from tours like this. Maybe the impacts would be minimal if the tour was instead kept to snorkelling in the deeper ponds only - where the fish have room to get away if they feel threatened - rather than floating uncontrolled down a rushing river. More importantly, tourists should always be kept at a distance to prevent disturbing the spawning salmon. I'd like to see the owner consult with biologists and local fishers to ensure this snorkelling with salmon tour has minimal to no wildlife impacts, just as is expected from other wildlife tours that I did in the area.

My husband and I did the raft and snorkel with salmon trip the first week in September. This was a really neat trip down the river! We saw thousands of pink and king salmon and the water was crystal clear! This was one of the highlights of our trip to Vancouver Island. Jamie was a little abrasive at first, but he warmed up quickly and was a fun and knowledgeable guide. Overall, we would highly recommend this trip to people of all ages looking for a unique wildlife adventure!

Thank you (guide) Colin and (owner) Jamie for the most unique outdoor adventure we’ve ever been on! Look online, you won’t find any adventures anywhere else in the world where you can do this!!! We did the “Snorkel with Salmon Adventure” and it was worth every penny. It’s a professionally-guided raft tour down the Campbell River - we saw literally thousands of different varieties of salmon as they spawned up river to lay their eggs. Sooo amazing! Bonus sightings: a black bear on shore and at least a dozen curious harbour seals checking us out. We wore wetsuits and didn’t feel cold; water in river was 14C and as we swam/floated downstream, it went down to 4C. Seeing streams of salmon darting in front of you is surreal! It was 3 hours for excitement for $135. We felt well-trained in all safety precautions and procedures to fully enjoy our experience! We highly recommend this one-of-a-kind adventure!!

Awesome trip down the river. Got to swim with the salmon. Great scenery and super fun floating over the rapids. Unfortunately BC Hydro was flushing a lot of silt into river combined with the heavy rain made for poor visibility in several sections.
Jamie is super knowledgeable equipment is great and fits well. Loved how he had corrective lens masks for rent so we could see. My only compliant was Jamie provided a great safe trip but seemed a little snappy and tired with the tourist season. Understandable that one cannot be on all the time but it dampens the adventure for us fun loving tourists. Trip scenery equipment is four to five stars. Jamie dragged the rating down for me.

Snorkeling and rafting with Jamie and the salmon was one of the highlights of our vacation to Vancouver Island!
Jamie is charming, friendly, and quite simply willing to do anything he can to make you relaxed on the trip. He literally gave my wife his straw hat when she was anxious about too much time in the sun. He's trained in first aid and all of his gear is top notch, in great repair and cleaned extremely well. He's also very knowledgeable, and more than happy to share and talk with you.
Parking was easy to find, either in the business lot or outside. There was a large bathroom provided on site for changing, as well as a change room on the bus. Jamie has all of the gear you could possibly need, wet suits for the tiny and the giant, prescription masks, everything!
The trip began with fitting into out wet suits while Jamie explained the day. Then we stripped down, drove to the site, changed, and hopped in the raft. By then we were hot and Jamie had us all jump in to cool off. Wow, that cold water hits fast but feels great after the initial shock! From there we alternated between snorkeling with the salmon, riding Superman-style over the rapids, and cruising in the raft.
The fish are incredible, you will not believe the thousands of them even if you've watched one of the videos! It was an incredible experience we'll never forget. Thanks Jamie!

This morning we snorkeled with the salmon. What a lot of fun! Nine people in our group plus Jamie, our guide. Excellent instruction and a great time! Even had a seal swim past me towards the end of our float! This activity is unique and includes a bit of rafting and a lot of snorkeling. Well worth it and highly recommend Destiny River Adventures

We went for a half day visit as this sounded unusual and wow!
Jamie the guide was brilliant. He kitted us up and instructed us so that we were ready for the cold river.
Once in the sights were incredible.
A river heaving with fish and you float through them. This was also great fun for shooting down the river like superman.
The final drift was around 40 mins in the river finishing with a seal coming to check me out and to play.
Jamie was an expert Boardman and a great guide and this really is an experience you should try.

What an amazing afternoon - can not recommend this company enough.
Had the opportunity to raft, snorkel with salmon and literally see hundreds of these beautiful fish and then we floated down the rapids.
Myself and my two boys loved this.
Jamie and his team are excellent - he gives good clear instructions at all times. The Blue bird coach was great fun too!
Thank you to Jamie and his team for such a fab day out.
If you get the opportunity to do this then these are the guys to go with .

Hi, Can anyone please tell me if this company is still up and running? I have tried to contact them via email and tried to book the Salmon swim online but no reply and the booking system doesn't work.
Thanks

We drove past as we’re supposed to have a tour (booked via a third party). It looks like no ones been in for a long time and there’s a “to lease” sign in the window with phone cut off so It’s absolutely not open any more sadly.

Would it be too cold to do salmon snorkelling in early October? If not, can we still see the salmon in the river? Thanks.

I saw an advertisement somewhere about a wildlife viewing trip in a zodiac. Didn't keep the info...:(. Sounds fun. Does your company happen to do that trip? Thx!
