Overview

Board your mini-coach and tour the famous Sea to Sky Highway along Howe Sound, the southernmost glacial fjord in North America. Feel the spray from British Columbia’s third-highest waterfall, Shannon Falls. Next, it is on to the Sea to Sky Gondola. Board the gondola and ascend 850 metres to the top to soak up the panoramic views. Our tour then continues north to Whistler where you will join a short guided walking tour of Whistler Village (optional). Then there is plenty of free time to explore at your own pace. Visit the shops, stop in an art gallery, or do as the locals do and find the perfect patio along the village stroll for a moment to relax at this stunning mountain resort. Whistler Resort is renowned as an outdoor meca, so feel free to ask your guide about additional activities you can take part in during your free time. When your time in Whistler comes to an end, enjoy the scenic tour back along the Sea to Sky Highway to where your tour began.

Wonderful tour! Shannon Falls was beautiful. The Sea to Sky Gondola was great with amazing views from the top and the Suspension Bridge was fun! Whistler Village was fun to explore. Bernie, our driver and guide was great!

Did this tour yesterday and had an absolute ball. We were blessed to have a sunny day which matched our driver's (Rhandi) lovely disposition. Rhandi was helpful and knowledgeable, had a great sense of humour and went out of her way for us all to have a good time. Not only was the tour fantastic for views and experience, I'm grateful Rhandi would give us inside knowledge of our activities that would enhance the experience. On top of the mountain from the gondola, after walking the suspension bridge, my husband and I did the Panorama and Wonderland lake trails as recommended by Rhandi and thoroughly enjoyed them. Great photo opportunities if you like that sort of thing. Did more 'steps' this day than any other on my holiday! Thought Whistler village was pretty and had lunch at Earl's which was enjoyable but nothing to write home about. In hindsight, I think I would have preferred the brewery which did $5 cocktails for 'happy hour'. Had plenty of time to peruse the shops and it pays to look around as the prices for products varied considerably. One hoodie was 'on sale' at one shop for $50 whilst at another it was $35. All in all, a great experience, especially if you have Rhandi as your guide.

Pick-up was in front of Canada Place so no hardship to find. Our bus driver/tour guide who's name escapes me was first class in knowledge and driving. Stopped on the way at the Sea and Sky gondola and mountain. Whistler is a great place but really for the trendy youngsters. However well worth the visit.

I think 1/2 hour more at Shannon Falls and that much less in Whistler village would be better. There wasn’t a lot of time to use the bathroom and then climb to see the falls in the 25 minute stop. Our tour guide was friendly but she interjected far too much personal opinion/politics and low bar humour into the dialogue.

I know it’s a bit late, but I would love to rate this trip. My husband and I went on a tour bus to see Vancouver. Our tour guide, Leslie, was excellent; he explained everything about Vancouver, Canada. He was terrific and knowledgeable. I enjoyed our trip with my husband. Thank you, Leslie, for making our trip enjoyable and memorable you are amazing.
