Vancouver Trolley - Takes at least 2 hours with traffic. Good. Driver was very knowledgeable in architecture, art, & history.

Hopping Through Vancouver: A Fun-Filled Trolley Adventure! - We signed up for the 24-hour Hop On, Hop Off Trolley and it turned out to be the perfect way to explore Vancouver at our own pace! We cruised through the city’s top sights, starting with a stop at beautiful Stanley Park, where we hopped off to admire the iconic Totem Poles. Next, we rode over to Granville Island for a delicious lunch and some shopping before jumping back on to enjoy the rest of the loop. One of the best parts of this tour is hearing all about Vancouver’s history and hidden gems from the friendly narrators—they clearly love what they do and meeting new people. Their stories and energy made our urban adventure truly memorable and a whole lot of fun!

Overall it was a good... - Overall it was a good experience; a good way to get an overview of the city. The narration was good and we learned about the city. With only three trolleys running it was about 40 minutes between trolleys and with the variance in stops pick ups were not consistent, if you miss one you have a long wait. Note: the route on Sundays is a little different which is not communicated well.

Good selection of stops - Service was good with the live map giving info about where each bus was. Tour guides were very interesting. Trolley was not very comfortable. Some windows couldn’t close and it was cold and rainy. Windows rattled a lot. This had many stops In Stanley park which was why we chose it over the big double decker bus. We also stopped on Granville island which had a great public market

Mixed review - Honestly I have to give this mixed reviews. I chose this over the hop on hop off bus because the reviews were better and I thought it would feel more personal than the big double Decker bus. But 2/3 of our day was not great. Very long wait times…40 minutes between buses. Our first driver was not very friendly and almost made me not want to hop back on when we got off in Stanley park. However, we took a chance and our second driver was great. Very friendly, very accommodating, and even let us all get off at the totem poles at Stanley park and gave us 10 min to explore so we could see them and not have to wait 40 min for the next bus. Our third driver was ok but the trolley was in bad shape and we could not understand anything he was saying due to the poor speaker system. So overall, while we did get a good feel for the city, I don’t think I would recommend the trolley. If I had to do it again I would probably choose the bus.

If you enjoy waiting, give this a shot. - Our guide was really good and I felt for her. She was the only operator from 9am until 1pm. We got to one of the stops only for the trolley to be full. We went to another stop and waited well over an hour for it arrive. Thankfully we were able to get on because almost no one else was at any other subsequent stops. One of the managers (I'm assuming) came onto the trolley and tried to convince all of us to get off so others could get on. We had been dealing with this for hours at this point, why would we get off when chances are we wouldn't be able to get back on? It was completely disorganized and the poor operator had to keep apologizing to the people at every stop who weren't able to get on. The tour itself was great, we saw interesting things, but unfortunately the seats were so uncomfortable. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this company

Disappointed tour because of operating hours. - I was disappointed on this tour; it was a late start time and early end time. This resulted in us only making 1 round with 2 stops. I would recommend adding earlier start times and later end times during the summer making for a better experience for passengers. Also the cute trolly had uncomfortable seats that had a small cushion added to the wood bench that didn't help just made it worse. The trolly operator was very nice and helpful. Hope this helps someone.

Cramped and uncomfortable - The trolley was so cramped and uncomfortable. The company had 3 trolleys on the road and they were back to back so when you "hopped off" you would miss the next one coming because they were too close together. Then we had to wait 1.5 hours for next one. One trolley broke down so they were picking people up and making them stand! Very unsafe and cramped and not very conducive for site seeing ! Very bad experience

Worst hop on hop off ever. - This is the worst hop on hop off we have ever used. The old, poorly maintained trolley was extremely uncomfortable. We could not hear the guide because his microphone was broken. Half way the tour the trolly broke down and we had to begin the tour again on a different trolley. We got off on one of the stops and when we returned to the stop we waited over an hour, through two scheduled pick up times. and no trolley ever showed up. We had to take a cab back to our hotel.

Take the Bus! - Terrible experience. We purchased a 2 day ticket and only hopped on and off once. We hopped on, did a section of the circuit, jumped off downtown and then made our own way to the GasTown stop. We waited 1h 45mins at the Gastown stop to get back on, only for the trolley to skip the stop! While we were waiting we could see on the live tracker that all 3 trolleys were back at base (yet we were given no info on the trolley about them stopping over lunch so enable us to plan accordingly). Meanwhile, the competitor bus company had approx 5 buses go past the stop during this time. We tracked the first bus to leave base and, after 1h45mins of waiting, it skipped the stop and went down a different street. In the end we gave up, caught a cab back to our hotel and didnt use the ticket on Day 2. I tried calling and messaging on the day regarding a refund for Day 2 - no answer and I've received no reply to my message via their website since returning home. I've given them weeks and multiple opportunities to avoid me making this bad review but they have ignored all attempts to contact them. Extremely disappointing.
