British Columbia’s landscapes were shaped by ancient forces—but the best way to understand their true power is from the air. The Prehistoric Glacier Tour by Sea to Sky Air offers a rare opportunity to witness the dramatic, sculpted terrain of the Pacific Temperate Rainforest Ecoregion—a vast, endangered coastal landscape unlike anywhere else in the world.
Departing from Squamish, this scenic flight reveals a side of BC few get to see. As your pilot guides you west over glacier-carved mountains, turquoise rivers, and raw, rugged valleys, you’ll witness 10,000 years of geologic history unfold beneath your wings.
Just minutes from downtown Squamish, colossal glaciers still shape the terrain today. These ancient rivers of ice grind away at mountainsides, carving valleys and gouging deep scars into the Earth’s crust.
From the cockpit of a small plane, you’ll see how BC’s landscapes were formed—not just read about it.
The Prehistoric Glacier Tour is about more than just sightseeing; it’s a guided journey through time. With expert narration from your Sea to Sky Air pilot, you’ll learn how glaciers transformed the land into what it is today—while witnessing it for yourself.
This tour also highlights the heart of British Columbia’s endangered Pacific Temperate Rainforest Ecoregion. Lush forests cling to dramatic cliffs, alpine lakes hide in high cirques, and waterfalls tumble from heights only visible from the sky.
This is where the coast meets mountains, and the power of nature is on full display.
This scenic flight isn’t just one of the most fun things to do in Squamish—it’s also one of the most meaningful. The Prehistoric Glacier Tour offers a rare chance to reflect on the raw, creative forces of nature, from a perspective few ever experience.
With Sea to Sky Air, you’ll leave not just entertained—but transformed. BC is more than a destination. It’s a story written in stone, ice, and time—and this is your front-row seat.
