5.00The tour was well organised and on time for pick up! I only had time to go to Vancouver this time around - so it was so good to get out of the city and get a feel for what the rest of the country is really like with all that nature out there! Definitely made me want to go back to see more of Canada. It’s a big day out but worth it!
A recommended day trip, great scenes.

5.00Tour was a good pace, and gave you enough time to explore Whistler at your own leisure. We had great weather which gave us awesome scenery for the Sky Gondola & Whistler. Alex our tour guide was very helpful and informative.
Great day and better customer service.

5.00Great day up to the ski resort. Originally the sea to sky gondola was supposed to be closed. It was actually open and they took us and gave it to us complimentary. This is a great company. The coach was comfortable. The driver was fun, early, and knowledgeable about the area between Vancouver and Whistler. Overall would book this again. Plenty of time at each spot and it was a great day.
Great Tour, Awesome Tour Guide!!!

1.00This tour provider can take a reservation but don't be surprised if its not held. I booked this tour well in advance of my trip to Vancouver and was looking forward to it. However, they cancelled last minute because their bus/van wasn't full. I'm sorry, but that's not my problem. I'd recommend paying a little more to book with a provider that won't cancel on you last minute. Horrible experience with this operator.
Memorable experience

5.00Alex our tour was excellent, knowledgeable, engaging and super friendly. The drive up and stops were were both breathtaking. Whistler is well worth seeing even without snow and I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Vancouver.
Disappointing
