Mountains, Mining, and Memories

Published on Sep, 2023

We had an awesome tour guide who really knew Vancouver and the surrounding area as a lifetime local. The selection of activities helped us understand the history of Vancouver amd experience its beauty in a way that you wouldn’t experience by keeping to the downtown area. It was a great day and exactly what we were hoping for!

Great tour. Knwlegeble guide and good private vehicle

Published on Dec, 2020

My guide was was proactive driver was well versed with attractions. Private vehicle given to me was luxurious setting. Moreover we enjoyed. Although the gondola in Squamish was closed due to covid restrictions but my guide given me extra additions in the tour which we liked.
