My boyfriend and I had a lovely time! It was so nice to not have to worry about a car rental, parking, renting the snowshoes, getting lost on the trail, etc - we could focus on just enjoying the beautiful sights :)

This was a must do while we were in Vancouver definitely worth the money the experience was unimaginable and the tour guide was lovely and knowledgeable, wouldn’t second guess doing this!!

Our trip to Whistler and Squamish was truly amazing. Along the way we made several stops to enjoy the beautiful Canadian nature. There was always a chance to take some nice pictures and Nafees gave us some special tricks to improve our photography skills! We also learnt about the indigenous culture, which was very interesting. We were lucky with the weather and saw a frozen waterfall that only happens once every 10 years. On an off-road snowshoe trail we saw another waterfall. Nafees looked after everyone and was very open to any questions we had. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who likes the outdoors and wants to visit the Olympic place.

I had a fantastic time snowshoeing and taking pictures alongside an excellent guide. We got lucky that there was a fresh dumping of snow and the sun was out.

Absolutely beautiful and memorable day! Due to there not being enough signed up for the Stawamus Chief Hike on the day I had booked, Nafees accepted me on the Joffre Lakes Tour. The scenery was beautiful, the hike was challenging and the group was a lovely mix of travellers. Nafees knowledge of Vancouver and the hikes was outstanding and he was very accomodating and an experienced guide and photographer. I would recommend booking with Nafees if you have the opportunity. Highlight of my trip!
