Traveler Tips


A 10 hour day with appropriate stops and good points of interest.
This part of the trip for me was a bit pointless, there was a cafe and shop there but not enough to warrant the time we were there.

The highlight of our trip!
David_F, Mar 2023
This trip blew me and my brother away. We loved the sky gondola and we weren’t expecting so much snow but was a gorgeous day while the mountain was full of snow. Whistler is amazing and charming. Totally recommend the trip or even staying at Whistler. Tour guide was friendly and helpful. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

Gondola was awesome
Tanya_R, Mar 2023
The gondola ride was the highlight of the trip. I’m so glad I booked this tour which included the gondola in the price. 3hrs was the perfect amount of time to spend in Whistler. Andy was a great guide and we thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Guide/ driver was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The sea to sky gondola and suspension bridge was a highlight
Pleasant day - over shadowed by tour guide !
Selma_A, Feb 2023
The natural landscapes and gondola ride were brilliant - the snow tuning at the top was great fun. The guide however - a very unhappy bunny and perhaps shouldn’t be doing these excursions anymore ! My daughter and I didn’t appreciate his unapproachable and unfriendly manner !

Gemma_F, Jan 2023
This was an excellent trip from start to finish. The gondola trip was the highlight but also the waterfall and Whistler were well worth the trip. Leslie was an excellent host full of interesting information . The coach was very comfortable and there were plenty of breaks.

A_P, Dec 2022
It was dark and cloudy. Views of base and distant mountains, from summit were not great due to heavy clouds.
A magical winter wonderland
Aditi_K, Dec 2022
All the places were very scenic in the snow. Our tour guide gave lots of information and also advice on how to navigate our way while exploring in the snow and also cautioned us. There was hardly any visibility on the peaks but it was a different experience to ride on the gondola in the clouds and the snow. The Sea to Sky Gondola offered some breathtaking views. Overall it was a great tour.

Jingwei_G, Dec 2022
Had a great time at the sea to sky gondola.. amazing views! Andy is such a great driver and tour guide.. keeps us entertained the entire trip!
Incredible views!
Jessie_W, Dec 2022
My second tour with this company and it was Andy again which was really nice - he’s such a good tour guide! I booked this trip mainly to see Whistler and absolutely did not read this properly as I was so surprised and happy to get to do the Sea to Sky gondola which turned out to be the highlight of the tour! So stunning and on the way down I just soaked up the views! Whistler Village was great! I watched some skiing and went to the museum and had a Cow’s ice cream! Thank you for a great day!
Whistler day out
Claire_S, Nov 2022
A bit of a wet day, and unfortunately didn't see any snow. But nice to look around without it being too busy. Good information from the guide. Great day out!
