Highly Recommend - Highly recommend. We had a great day and enjoyed all three stops - Shannon Falls, Sea to Sky Gondola, and Whistler. There is plenty of time in Whistler Village to eat, shop, or hike. Meghan was a wonderful guide! This is a great way to spend one day of your Vancouver vacation.

Amazing views and scenery - The Gondola was amazing, with suspension bridge at the end sturdy enough for even those most afraid of heights. Whistler Village has something for everybody- interesting walks, shopping and a great variety of places to eat or have a refreshing beverage. Bernie, our wonderful driver/guide was friendly, informative and very helpful. I highly recommend this small group experience

Amazingly awesome. Bucket list type of adventure. - It started with a great tour guide, Bernie. We were able to do so much. I’m talking “bucket list” type of stuff. If you go, do the thing. You never know if you never go!

Great Trip - The tour was a great way to see Whistler and the Sea to Sky Gondola. Bernie was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs to make it the most enjoyable for us. Helped us find trails and gave us an informative walking tour of Whistler. Only bad thing that happened was a tire issue on the way back to Vancouver that delayed us, but they took care of us.

Outstanding Tour - We enjoyed an outstanding tour with Will. The gray clouds and initial rainfall did not dampen this trip. Will was very informative and personable with all members of the bus. He enhanced our trip with a stop in which we hiked to the Train Wreck Graffiti Park. On our hike we enjoyed the beauty of the woods and crossed a beautiful, rushing creek before we reached the train cars. We then stopped at Brandywine Falls which was just as dramatic as the Shannon Falls. We would also like to recognize Leeza who took the time to talk with us on the phone before we booked this tour to clarify our questions. Excellent Tour Company!

Fantastic day! - I was in Vancouver for work, but wanted to see some nature. This was the perfect option for a day-long trip. The weather was incredible and the views were gorgeous. Our guide Ben was helpful and friendly. I highly recommend the company.

Suspension bridge antics - I got scared on the suspension bridge and on the return trip I scooted across and ended up leaving my mom (on a cane) on the bridge! She was fine or I wouldn't have left her but we have laughed about it over and over. Plus, it let me get a good picture of her on the bridge.
