5 hours of whale watching from Vancouver, with a naturalist guide, fast modern boat, whale guarantee, and Gulf Islands marine life.
“If course we loved the whales but would of been nice to travel more to find more whales. Stayed in the same spot for hours. The orcas were to far away to really enjoy the experience. For the amount of money I spent for 4 of us, we should of watched them for a bit and moved on to find more. But overall the experience was alright.”

Fly round-trip by Harbour Air seaplane from Vancouver to Whistler with Green Lake landing, free shuttle, and a full day in Whistler Village.
“My booking despite the the fact that it was done months before was a mess. Got emails saying the flight was at 10:00 am had a ticket with 10:00 am on it, but according to check in there was no 10:00 am flight. We were more than an hour early so with a few minutes to spare we literally gotshoved onto the 9 am flight after being screamed at because we could not produce vaccination papers fast enough. Oh this was not mentioned on the ticket by the way. Short bumpy flight pretty high most of the time. We arrive to no shuttle and a scrabble to get folks on…”
Guided Seattle to Vancouver day trip with Stanley Park, Canada Place, Gastown Steam Clock, and Granville Island, plus optional FlyOver Canada 4D.
“WOW!!! The tour guide Mark was excellent! He did a great job narrating the tour. His driving was amazing. He even had water bottles and snacks for us. This is defintley one of the smoothest tours I’ve ever been on. I wanted to go through some of the things others negatively pointed out in other reviews. The van was VERY clean. The driving was perfect (I don’t even drive in Seattle and I lived there 20yrs). The price is excellent for what you’re getting- minimum of a ten hour day, being dropped off at all the curates must see spots, not having to park a car, breezing through customs etc.…”

“With only one day to site-see before getting on our cruise, and because we were traveling with our 13 year-old granddaughter who did not meet the age requirement for an e-bike rental ...we decided to try the scooter tour. Never having been on an electric scooter before, the learning curve was quick and easy. We were very pleased with our guide as he pointed out the major sites. He took us to all the great places we could access with the scooters including bike trails, sidewalks, bridges, back streets, gravel paths through the woods and even grassy areas in the parks.”

“This hike is extremely strenuous! More than we knew. My Fitbit logged climbing 550 floors!!!! Please let tourist know what this hike was like. Guide Aramesh was fantastic he stayed with whoever was at end of group ( which was us after some dropped out) He was so encouraging and very informative on the drive.”
A self-driving audio guide for Western Canada, with GPS and bilingual narration, covering Vancouver sights, Victoria, and the Rockies route.
