What are people saying about Vancouver

Whistler & Sea to Sky Gondola Day Trip from Vancouver

Wayne_S, Oct 2025

Wonderful trip through...

Wonderful trip through the northwest. The waterfalls and the gondola were spectacular. Whistler village was quaint with many good restaurants. Our guide, Gavin, was great. Having grown up in Squamish he knew the area well and had great stories. Note the weather before you go, as it would not work well in fog and rain.

Friendly, understanding, accommodating

We had planned to go with our three small kids for seal watching and was excited for it. Dillion was very friendly, understanding and accommodating inspite of the issue we had from our side because of our kids. The manager was also very understanding. They put customers first. We really appreciate their focus on making sure we did not leave disappointed.

Amazing whale watching

We had an absolutely amazing whale watching trip. We saw humpbacks, orcas, sea lions, harbor seals, bald eagle plus many other marine birds. The vessel was comfortable even though the weather was a bit wet. Captain and crew were great. I highly recommend this outstanding company.

The best day

This was one of the most enjoyable holiday experiences we have ever had. We Ubered there from downtown Vancouver, and bused back (super easy). From our first glimpses of Horshoe Bay we were excited, it's gorgeous! The team taking the tour were super friendly and helpful, and the experience itself was one we will remember for a lifetime. The scenery is absolutely stunning, the seals are adorable, and we even saw a humpback whale! If you love the water, and animals, do this tour!

Beat the heat; gorgeous boat tour with photo-ops

Having a one year old granddaughter in hand, her mom and I needed a comfortable tour to beat the heat of walking the sea wall. Amazingly, as we searched on Viator, we found the cruise dock was at Denway, only fifty yards away. Visibility, wind and waves were all great (I’m an avid sailor) so we boarded. The lower deck was spacious and great for baby’s stroller; the bar drinks and snacks were exploited for the grownups. The photo ops were outstanding even from inside, because the windows were large, clean and crystal clear. The bow and upper deck gave good vantage points for the camera. There was a canned commentary on the history of Gastown and the north Vancouver dry docks plus sulfur pile. The crew were good about pointing out the basking harbor seals and other sights. Boat motion was very acceptable even for non-sailors, and the circular tour returned on time. Could we have saved money either the $3 Seabus? No, it didn’t run across the harbor during our tour. The tour was a godsend when carrying a baby in the heat — and in any reasonable weather conditions, we would recommend for all.
