    My husband, daughter-in-law, 4 month old grandson, and I went on this tour while in Whistler. We all found it very informative and interesting. The tour guide was named Ryan and he did a wonderful job of explaining the history of the area as well as sharing his knowledge of the Village itself. He made accommodations for the stroller along the way and was welcoming to all the people on the tour making sure to personally visit with everyone. It was a great way to start our trip to the area, so that we could better plan our itineraries for the rest of our stay. I highly recommend this tour.

    Ryan was super knowledgeable. The pace of our walking tour was family friendly. Learning all about Whistler at the start of our trip was great. It helped us understand the village layout, history of the town, and maximize our trip.

    Ryan kept the walk a family friendly pace and it was super informative. Really a wonderful way to begin our vacation and learn some good options for dining, activities, history, and more from a local with 15+ years of experience within Whistler.

    Ryan was very knowledgeable of all aspects of the Whistler area. He showed us areas of the town that we would not have found on our own. I would recommend this tour the first day you arrive to get acquainted with the village are.

    We were suppose to take the walking tour from 11-12:30 the day after we arrived, but were contacted about either changing it to 5 p.m. the afternoon that we arrived or 9 a.m. the day after. We choose the 9 a.m. even though we had to get up a lot earlier for it. Ryan was our guide and we really enjoyed walking and talking with him. We walked all the trails surrounding the village while Ryan filled our heads with all the history of Whistler. At the end of the tour, Ryan gave us a lot of info on the best restaurants and art/culture around Whistler. We enjoyed it all.
