Excellent detailed tour to Vancouver city main highlights - Bernie is a person with all information you need to know about Vancouver. He loves his city so you will enjoy this tour.
The problem is to remember all this info so I may suggest to write notes to remember the data.
May improve the location to be out of rain in rainy seasons.
The transpor was very confortable just to see the city may be better in a bigger glass or on the top to have better view.

HIP HIP HOORAY, RENE! - Tour guide Rene was excellent, knowledgeable and entertaining with his jokes! We especially enjoyed hearing about the history and traditions of the First Nations peoples, and the information about the trees given by a guide who obviously is so connected to them. We liked hearing about the architectural trends and history of Vancouver by a man who loves and appreciates his adopted city of over 30 years. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts for sharing his vast knowledge of the city. We highly recommend everyone to partake in any of his tours. FIVE STARS

A great taste of Vancouver - The half day tour was perfect for a taste of Vancouver. We were shown the highlights and our tour guide Ian was very knowledgeable and friendly. There is so much to see and do in Vancouver . We did the half day tour and then went back and explored the places we loved at our own leisure.

Stanley Park and Granville Island Tour - Really enjoyed the trip through Stanley Park and Granville Island. Wish we had just a bit more time in Granville Island, maybe 30 minutes more would have been great. Zac was a good tour guide and gave a sense of the history and highlights.

Top Notch Tour Guide - Our tour guide was top notch. His knowledge of Vancouver, both currently and historically, would be hard to surpass. He also took us to many great spots for photographs around the city and took photos for everyone that requested.

Great Tour Guide - We had a Great Tour guide. He took time afterwards to add a few more neighborhoods for us to see. Before he did this he was gracious and asked if anyone had a time constraint.

Truncated Trip - Did not get to go on tour because I got sick on the Rocky Mountaineer trip because before we reached Vancouv I had to fly home early. (Sept 16.)

Not just a bus tour. - When I booked this tour I thought that it would be a bus tour of the city. I did not expect to be dropped off at Stanley Park and Granville Island. My husband can not walk very far so it was difficult for him. It also takes him so long to walk that we really did not have much time at these two stops.
