Best Island restaurants

Our all inclusive trip involves eating at the most desired restaurants in the San Juan Islands.

We select all the top quality restaurants, giving you the best dining experience the San Juan Islands have to offer.

**We do not cover the cost of alcoholic beverages with dinner.

Small personal groups

A great trip involves many factors. One of these is the group size. A smaller group is safer, allows for more interactions between the guides and guest and gives our guests a chance to know each other. Furthermore, we can also adjust and modify the trip to the individual desires and interests of the group, allowing our guests to participate in various activities ranging from birding, to advanced kayaking, to photography opportunities. For all these reasons and more we keep our regularly scheduled multi-day expedition group size to 8 guests or less ( unless a private trip ).

Private and custom tours are available upon request.

Gourmet meals

Starting with lunch on the first day and ending with lunch on your last day we provide all meals in between*. We feel that what you eat can be a major factor in the quality of your expedition, therefore we pride ourselves on the quality of our meals. Prior to your trip we send out food questionnaires and customize all of our meals to the various dietary requirements of our guests. We support many island farms and local producers to provide you with fresh, organic and regional food options. You will be impressed by the daily gourmet breakfasts at your inn, the heartiness of our well prepared lunches and the restaurants that we have chosen for your nightly dinner.

*Our 4, 5 and 6 day tours allow one night for the guests to explore town on their own. This evening's dinner is not included in the cost of the trip.

**We do not cover the cost of alcoholic beverages with dinner.
