Dark Secrets Tour, great stuff!

Published on Oct, 2024

This was a very interesting and well thought out tour to show the dark secrets of Stanley Park. Our tour guide Rob was an excellent storyteller and was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. A great way to spend our last day in Vancouver.

Captivating tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Rob, our guide, is very well informed. Kept the whole group captivated for the full 2 and a bit hours. Highly recommended.

Glenn is a gifted and enthusiastic storyteller

Published on Sep, 2024

We LOVED The Really Gay History tour so brought our family along for our second outing with Forbidden Vancouver Walking Tours. When we saw that it would be led by Glenn again, we were Thrilled. He is a personable, erudite and prodigious story teller, and expertly guided us through the dark secrets of Stanley Park. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough, for Vancouver visitors and locals alike.

Fantastic tour reveals the history of Stanley Park

Published on Sep, 2024

Fantastic tour! We were welcomed by our guide Cole who was brilliant. The history of the park is so interesting and thought provoking. Cole spoke so well and kept everyone engaged and entertained. I highly recommend the tour.

Great storytelling -- will keep you enthralled!

Published on Aug, 2024

Rob was an amazing tour guide, very informative and a great storyteller! We came away with so much interesting information about the history, grief and struggles of the birth of Vancouver and Stanley Park. He kept us enthralled for the entire time. (something I cannot say for the Gastown Lost Souls tour which was overacted and boring -- we left early). I highly recommended this tour!
