Wonderful trip although the bad weather - I really enjoyed my trip. Jason was so humorous and kind. My trip to Canada is just 3 days and 1 day tour with Jason made my whole trip more wonderful and enjoyable.

Whistler trip left us on a high! - It was raining in Vancouver when we embarked upon our Whistler tour with Alex. As we left the city, the rain ebbed and we were treated to some amazing views enroute. The Sea to Sky Gondola ride and the walk along the trails was pure exhilaration for all of us! Whistler was breathtaking and we have decided to come back sometime later to do more days here. Shannon Falls at Squamish were worth visiting as well. Alex kept us regaled with the details of each place and his in-depth knowledge of history of the area made the trip extra special!

Wonderful views including Shannon Falls. - We had a rainy day off and on however that did not bother us in the least as the views were just different but still beautiful. Alex was very informed and did his best to keep everyone enjoying themselves. We did get some sun in the afternoon which gave us great photos. The only thing I would change is if Alex talked a little lest about himself. It was really unnecessary. He also did too much over explaining what his plans were.
Also more stops to look at views and less time in Whistler. Too much expensive shopping and was really made for the physically active and young. I would say 80% was above 55 on the tour. Just my opinion though. Maybe others felt differently.

Awesome trip, driver was spectacular - This was truly a fabulous trip. The driver (believe his name is Andy) was amazing. He went out of his way to make sure that we were informed and got plenty of time exploring and taking pictures at scenic locations.

Great Tour! - This was a gorgeous tour! The gondola ride was a quick and comfortable way to move up the mountain. I recommend walking the bridge to the short trail, and then grabbing a drink and sitting to enjoy the breathtaking views. Once in Whistler, there is shopping, dining, and other short trails. If you are lucky you may even see a black bear! We enjoyed eating sushi and tacos at Earls.
There are also a few beautiful stops along the way up and down the mountain with waterfalls, quaint towns, and water views.
Jessica, our guide, was adorable, helpful, and so knowledgeable! I really enjoyed learning the history along the way. This tour had options for small trails/ but also places to relax, eat, or shop. It did not require too much walking- so it would be great for a group that had a mixture of needs or interests! 10/10 recommend this tour.

Excellent tour and exceptional guide - This was an all day tour from Vancouver to Whistler, taking in multiple scenic stops along the way. The scenery was spectacular throughout and our guide/driver Jason made sure we could enjoy it from the best possible vantage points.
The sights were never likely to disappoint, but what a difference it made to have a guide with such a depth of knowledge as well as the ability to share that knowledge with clarity, and look after us perfectly all day.
Overall, an excellent itinerary brilliantly managed by an exceptional guide.

Did not meet expectations - The pick up from our hotel was great. Unfortunately the tour didn’t meet our expectations. The gondola was good but not helped by very wet weather although views were great when the cloud cleared. Our anticipated view of Whistler didn’t meet our expectations. The waterfall was spectacular. Whilst the tour guide was informative, it wasn’t always very easy to follow and we just felt he talked too much about irreverent things.

very bad and uncomfortable with bad personnel - After doing many trips with tripadvisor, i am writing to complain about this tripon 2nd May 2025.Firstly after being collected on time from our hotel we wasted so much time going around in circles trying to find somebody which made us late getting to the meeting point that took us on the tour. On reaching this point the driver was extremely grumpy and very rude. I myself aged 77 was made to squeeze into the back of the vehicle with my legs scrunched up there and back over a wheel arch. Throughout the whole journey we were constantly having to shout at the driver as we could not hear anything he was saying , alongside this it was very very hot and he would not put the air conditioning on which was awful. After paying a lot of money for this trip i feel this wants addressing and your reply is needed on this matter.
This was the worse trip we have been on , photo attached of wheel arch
