What are people saying about Vancouver

Whistler, Sea to Sky Gondola, & Shannon Falls Tour from Vancouver

Authrine_S, Apr 2026

Brilliant experience!!!

This tour is a MUST!!!! We were visiting from New York and took this tour on April 4, 2026. It was a beautiful sunny day and our tour guide, Jason, brought out all the brilliance could ever wanted on this tour. The beautiful scenery and the history blended well to make the day so effortlessly memorable. All the attractions encapsulated by the mountain ranges was a sight to behold. I would do this trip again!!!! Kudos to Jason. Thank you very much!!!

From Vancouver: Butchart Gardens, Victoria, & Gulf Islands Cruise

Heidi_S, Apr 2026

Happy we took the day to see Butchart Gardens and Victoria

It was a lovely day visiting Butchart Gardens and Victoria. Also a great way to travel the scenic waterways. However, more time is spent traveling (4.5 - 5 hrs) to and from Victoria then time in either Butchart Gardens (1.5 hours) or Victoria (2 hrs). Bobby was a great tour guide providing information about the city and I recommend the tour but it does take up an entire day.

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park Ticket

Taylor_A, Apr 2026

This is a must during your time here in Vancouver!

This was an amazing experience my daughter and I enjoyed this tremendously. The open views, the smell of the forest and the feeling of feeling safe thrill while doing the cliff walk or going across the suspension bridge, was an amazing adrenaline rush. Thank you again for having the activities for the kids. My daughter enjoyed the Easter egg hunt, and the activity throughout the park. She loved that her prize was seeds for her garden. Just made it that more perfect. Plus the hot chocolate was amazing!!! Definitely check out the cliff walk restaurant. The meal was 10 out of 10 for me and the specialty Easter dessert really really was amazing.

Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Capilano Suspension Bridge & Vancouver Lookout

MaryCarmen_A, Mar 2026

Great way to experience Vancouver in a day.

This is a great way to experience key sights in Vancouver if you've never been, of even if you've been here before and want to explore a bit further. Tim, our tour guide was really knowledgable and his dad jokes were spot on. The day was lovely and it was a great way to see nature and city in one day.

Vancouver Premium Tour: Capilano Bridge + Grouse Mountain Lunch

Jennifer_J, Feb 2026

Winter Wonderland

Although this tour is much more popular during the warm weather months, I’m glad we went when we did! It was more personalized and our guide, Paul, was able to take the time to introduce us to the Vancouver main attractions in just a few hours. The Capilano suspension bridge was breathtaking- if you get a chance to go at night, I bet it is spectacular. Wear good walking shoes, dress in layers and be prepared to get in your steps! The view from Grouse mountain was incredible as we happened to go on a clear day- the view is about 50mi! There is a limited menu, that’s included with the tour. That was good enough for us (we added drinks) but you can choose to order from the full menu at an additional cost. It was great to see how the indigenous culture is respected and honored in many ways, even with the growth of urban/city life. Paul made a great tour exceptional! He really took his time with us, explained history and even helped us capture memories by snapping several pics of us along the way. We have only good things to say. We really enjoyed ourselves!

Vancouver City Tour plus Granville Island & Capilano Bridge

Emily_J, Jan 2026

Perfect tour with limited time in Vancouver

Was the highlight of Vancouver to see the Canyon Lights at Capilano suspension bridge. I had no idea when I booked it that the lights were up and it was the last night. It was magical, I wish we had more time at this location. We saw Stanley Park and ate lunch at Public Market in Granville then drove through Vancouver seeing landmarks due to the protests that were occurring downtown. I wish we had more time at each spot but I realize it is a long tour. I definitely will go back to these locations to enjoy more. This is a perfect tour if you only have a day or two in Vancouver.

Whistler and Sea to Sky Gondola Tour + Shannon Falls

Christy_M, Oct 2025

Would Recommend

This was an awesome experience. Our tour guide was a great! He knew lots of interesting facts of the areas we were passing through but he also didn't talk the whole time. He also had some good tips of things to see/do at a few of the stops as well. We felt like we had adequate time at all the stops (gondola could have been a touch longer) but we are explorers and enjoy wandering around. We will need to time it better next time so we can catch a lift at Whistler and wander around at the top. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to see the sights and not have to drive yourself!!

Victoria and Butchart Gardens, an Elevated Experience

Neeta_W, Oct 2025

Lovely day tour

It was a lively experience, we were in a mini bus with Joel and Mo. Joel, our tour guide was jolly, informative with a good sense of humor. We had a pleasant day, with seamless transitions on BC Ferry. The tour provided water bottles and umbrellas which was really helpful with rain that day.

The tour director was...

The tour director was great with lots of local knowledge and historical references. He allowed us plenty of time in Stanley Park as well as Granville Island. We went through several local neighborhoods in addition to Chinatown and Gastown that we went on to explore the following day. Small group on a small, clean, confortable bus.

Zac, our tour guide for...

Zac, our tour guide for the day, was amazing. He picked us on time at our hotel and was entertaining as well as informative throughout the day. We were dropped off at our hotel at the end. Victoria and the Butchart Gardens are amazing. It made for a long day but well worth it. Would do it all over again with Viator.
