Collin was very personable and knowledgeable with Stanley Park and the Ancient Trees. The tour was very interesting. Weather was perfect and the tour was the right amount of time. I would recommend this tours if you are in Vancouver. It was well worth the time and money.

A Wok Around Chinatown: Culinary and Cultural Walking Tour Led by a Chef

Nicole_H, Apr 2026

Fun, educational and inspiring way to spend a day in Vancouver

We had SUCH a good time with Bob as our tour guide. It ended up being only myself and husband so we felt quite spoiled as the only 2 on the tour. The garden was amazing. And Bob’s knowledge of history and Chinese culture provides so much context. From BBQ to pastries to a dim sum lunch and tea tasting - it’s a beautiful education and celebration of Chinese culture, history and heritage in Canada. Besides the food- you also visit an herbalist shop and several museums.

Shore Excursion: Pre-Cruise Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour with Port Drop Off

John_W, Oct 2025

Super Way to Get to Know Vancouver in 3.5 hours.

Our driver/guide, Greg, was experienced, knowledgeable, entertaining, and just generally fun. We learned a lot, and got to see places in our smaller bus that a full size motor coach would not physically fit. The pickup was exactly on time. The bus was clean and comfortable. We never felt bored or rushed, it was a great pace. The tour length was just right.

Sybil_T, Oct 2025

First day in Vancouver

Sharon_M, Sep 2025

Good way to do Vancouver in an afternoon

Really great way to see the city, particularly on a sunny day. Our guide was Chi and she was amazing - very knowledgeable with a sparkling personality and really cared that each member of the group enjoyed the experience. The cycling was easygoing and we pushed the bikes up the steeper bits. Saw lots of different parts of the city.

Vancouver Island Victoria Experience.

It was quite a long day but thoroughly enjoyed it. Loved the seaplan ride with Harbour Air. They were all very friendly and helpful. Victoria is a beautiful place. Lots to see and do. Plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants. We enjoyed the hop on and off bus trip. The ferry ride back was lovely with some stunning scenery passing all those islands and islets.

A Wok Around Granville Island Public Market Food Tour

Ryan_E, Jul 2025

Worthwhile! You won’t regret it

Loved having Michael, a knowledgeable local, retired chef as our guide. We tried items from 10 different vendors & covered quite a bit of ground around the public market. This tour takes the overwhelm out of visiting a market of this size. Everything about booking guided tours through Viator has been top notch - on time & well taken care of throughout.

Vancouver Cruise Transfers/ Pre & Post Cruise City Sightseeing Tour Private

Margene_P, Jul 2025

Wonderful Post-Cruise option!

Adrian provided a wonderful tour of Vancouver. He checked with us the day before so there were no questions the day of our tour. He was prompt in picking us up at the cruise port. He watched over our bags in the vehicle while we got out to take photos at the many stops. He had vast knowledge of Vancouver to share with us and great recommendations for food, etc. Ultimately, he dropped us off at the airport with our luggage. He couldn't have been any more kind and courteous. The vehicle was clean and comfortable for our party of 4. We highly recommend this tour for easy, no-stress post-cruise enjoyment.

Vancouver Lookout & Guided City Tour with Airport Drop-off Option

Maria_D, Jun 2025

Greg was great!

Greg was a great tour guide, he was funny and informative about the places we went to. We drove by Downtown Vancouver, BC Place and Rogers Arena. Was a shame the heavens opened and it rained for a good 30mins while we drove by these places (but also happy we weren’t caught in the rain!). Next stop was Stanley Park where we were given time to see the Totem Poles. The tide was very low but still an amazing view to see Vancouver city. Next we drove to Granville Island where we had 2 hours to go around, eat, listen to the singers etc. Last stop was Vancouver Lookout overlooking the city 360 degree view. (Sadly Gastown was closed off to cars. On Sunday they open the road to pedestrians so top tip! - don’t book this tour on a Sunday!) but if you do it’s not the end of world, you can finish your tour at the Vancouver Lookout and walk down the road turn right on to Water Street and the famous Gastown Steam Clock is right there!

Vancouver Sightseeing and Suspension Bridge Small Group Tour

MAITTE_R, Jun 2025

Fantastic Tour — Highly Recommended!

We had an amazing experience on the Small Group Tour of Vancouver and Capilano Suspension Bridge! The entire tour was well organized, and we were able to see so many of Vancouver’s top highlights in a comfortable and relaxed way. We actually booked last minute, and we’re so glad we did — everything was seamless from start to finish. Our guide was excellent — knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the city. He shared great stories, interesting facts, and made sure everyone felt included. Capilano Suspension Bridge was absolutely breathtaking, and we had plenty of time to explore and take photos. We also loved the stops around the city — everything from Stanley Park to Granville Island was beautiful and well timed. This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Vancouver. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city!
