We were traveling late in the tourist season, so our tour group was smaller, which was very nice. Our tour guide, Stella, was very knowledgeable and personable. Every stop was special and beautiful. I was leery of spending time at the fish hatchery, but it was interesting—and watching the salmon jumping up over walls was really pretty cool. Grouse Mountain—just taking the tram up is great. The views are “must see”—although the fog blocked most of our view on the way up. Because we were later in the season, they were doing some maintenance that caused some inconvenience, as well as some activities were unavailable—but, it really didn’t matter because there was still a lot to see and do. The the Capialano Suspension Bridge was THE BEST. The bridge itself is an exciting experience—but we liked the cliff walk even more—and then the sky walk high up in the tree tops…just amazing! We never felt rushed, though you could easily spend an entire day at each of these stops—but if you don’t have lots of days to spend in Vancouver, this is the perfect excursion to see, and enjoy, all the beauty of Vancouver!

Had a tour on a misty day to Capilano and Grouse Mountain. Bazill was our guide, we only had a small group but he was great, remembered everyone's name and was entertaining.

Baz was by far the best guide I’ve ever had! He made it fun and factual. He went out of his way to make sure we all had the best experience

This was a great tour. The sites to see were beautiful and to top it off our tour guide was amazing. He made it very personable, seemingly making a connection with each of his guests on the bus, and was full of insight as we travelled along.
