What can we say about Grizzly Bear Ranch that has not been said so eloquently in previous reviews. To sit on the rear balcony of the Volga cabin, overlooking the churning waters of the snow melt as it tumbled downstream, felt like we had arrived in a place as close to perfect as we could ever hope to find in...

My husband and I spent a few days at the Grizzly bear ranch in June as part of a 3 week honeymoon around B.C and without a doubt I can say it was the highlight of our trip. As the safari was towards the end of our honeymoon and we had already seen a fair few bears along the way... More

We first visited GBR in late Oct 2010. We were the last group for the season, had a great time, met wonderful people, had 5 star meals, and learned a great deal about the area and its bears. But, the bears were gone for the season. So, we decided to try again, this time earlier in Oct 2011. (by the... More

Had a great few days with Kristin, Julius and the guide team. Their passion for the pristine wilderness in which they work and reside is infectious. Kristin prepares fresh wholesome food to a very high standard on a daily basis. We enjoyed Kristin's fare all the more having built an appetite whilst spending our day's in an ethically sound quest... More

Their website promises a wonderful experience, and the Grizzly Bear Ranch delivers. We were there in mid October, and saw mothers and year old cubs every day, in their natural habitat, fishing, and sleeping, from the road and from a raft on the river. We were glad we had taken lots of warm clothes, especially fleece and long underwear. Helmets... More

Travelling all the way from New Zealand with a desire to see Grizzlies, the time, effort and expense is considerable so we weighed our options carefully. We decided that 'an experience' was what we were after rather than just a photo shoot, and chose Grizzly Bear Ranch as a place where we could have a nice time, see lots of... More

If you are thinking of a grizzly bear viewing trip, you will have read all the reviews from previous visitors to each property. I could just say the same things as all the rest, but that wouldn`t help to make a selection, so I`ll try to build on those others for GBR and try to add something a little different.... More

I did have high expectations. SInce I consumed Jack London novels as a kid I have wanted to visit Canada. In contrast to the fictional nature of London´s stories, I really wanted my vacation to be as authentic and simple as possible. And did I ever experience more "bang for the bucks". The combined effort of Julius, Kristin, Ollie, Tamara,... More

We stayed at Grizzly Bear Ranch in late September as part of a 2 week BC trip and it was the best part of our trip. We have been (to other places) to spot bears in BC before without luck, but GBR did not disappoint with a Mum and 2 cubs on our first outing. (12 bears in total, lots... More

My wife and I spent several nights the week of 3 OCT 11 at Grizzly Bear Ranch and had the trip of a lifetime. Set in an incomparable location in British Columbia the beauty of the land is surpassed only by the hospitality of the hosts themselves. Kristin and Julius are not only extremely well versed in the subject of... More
