Great little post cruise excursion. Kevin was entertaining and really took care of us. Capilano bridge park was beautiful and well maintained. Grouse mountain has potential and could provide more but wasn’t bad. Airport dropoff worked out great after excursion.

Nice stops at Salmon. Hatchery, Capilano Bridge & Grouse Mtn. It does involve a lot of walking but manageable. At end of tour recommend only 1 or 2 downtown stops vs the +6 stops. Fighting downtown rush hour traffic extended the time significantly especially if you were being dropped at the airport.

Best Day Ever

Laura_M, Nov 2025

We did this as a post cruise last minute waiting for a late night flight, but ended up being one of the best parts of our trip! You absolutely see everything Vancouver has to offer but yet leave wanting more!!

Seeing Vancouver from the mountain tops!!!

Stephen_S, Oct 2025

When you get off the ship they will pick you up at the ship and drop you off at your hotel. Nice tour, and gives you a lot of time to enjoy each location. And takes you to some very cool locations!!!

Vancouver Beauty

Matthew_W, Sep 2025

Walkin shoes, water and above all a CAMERA

Trish_C, Sep 2025

Bring your walking shoes, water and above all your camera. I’ve never spent any time in Vancouver except for the airport. With a day layover we decided to make the most of our time. This trip, with 3 stops, was the best we could have done to see and get a good feel for Vancouver. What a beautiful place! Our guide Heather was great and you can tell she loves her city and was excited to share her experiences as well as facts and history. Pick up and drop off was easy. We had a really great day.

A Sunny day in Vancouver

Perfect adventure in Vancouver before our long flight home

ANNE_K, May 2025

Salmon, Suspension Bridge and Grizzly Bears. Great outdoor adventure after our cruise. We spent time at the salmon hatchery and then did a short hike to see the damn that caused the need for the hatchery. Next off to the suspension bridge where we had plenty of time to walk across the bridge and experience the tree top adventure and then the cliff walk. We ended the day on Grouse Mountain where we saw the grizzly bears, Grinder and Coola. Walked some of the trails and then warmed up in the theater seeing the movie about the bears. Sean our guide was awesome telling us what there was to see at each attraction and giving us plenty of time to see everything at each site and got us to the airport in plenty of time for our flight. Perfect way to get fresh air, activity and see some of what Vancouver has to offer before the long flight home.

Amazing excursion!

debbiemarkovic62, May 2025

This was an amazing day excursion! However, please be aware that if it is booked as a post cruise excursion the waiting time is long until pick up. We waited outside in the cold wind with our luggage for 2 hours and took turns going for a walk and finding a public toilet. I would suggest asking beforehand if there was a warmer pick up point. Also we had to trek our luggage across the busy road and to the next street. Despite the cold and wait, we LOVED our day out. The salmon hatchery was fascinating and the surroundings gorgeous. The Capilano Suspension bridge did NOT disappoint! The setting was picture perfect and the views stunning. It was wonky walking across, but satisfying and safe. I enjoyed the tree top walk and walking the cliffs.A fabulous way to observe the trees from up above. Just when I had thought we had seen the best views we were taken to Grouse Mountain. This was my favourite part of the whole day! We all boarded the gondola to glide up the sheer mountain top, whilst being treated to the most stunning views of the forest, river and bay. We were transported to snow and more walking uphill to the grizzly bear enclosure. Wow! Wow! It was incredible to see those 2 bears!! One was a definite show off and seemed to be posing for the cameras aimed at him!

Great post cruise excursion!

Shirley_S, May 2025

The tour was engaging and informative. Our tour guide Tim, made the experience memorable with his commentary and whit. We saw the bears, which was special. Loved being picked up at the cruise terminal and then dropped off at our hotel.

Top notch!

Julia_G, May 2025

Alex was informative, good natured, and knowledgeable about Vancouver and our tour stops. We had plenty of time to see the attractions, without feeling rushed. The pick up at the pier after a cruise and drop off at the hotel at the end of the day was excellent and well organized. The description of the tour was spot on. We had a great day! Thanks, Alex!

Tour operator didn't check Grouse Mountian

Alisa, May 2025

We absolutely LOVED Capilano suspension bridge and other activities. Grouse Mountain was a major disappointment though. The gondola was super cool, but besides that, the only other thing to do there was go watch the bears (if they're out). There was literally nothing else to see or do. We went before the summer season began and after the snow was melting. But the tour operator should have known that there would be nothing to do...that's what they get paid for...to know what to do and when to do it. We ended up spending 2hrs and 30 min at Grouse Mountain when there is realistically only 45 min to 1 hour of stuff to do there. I wish they would have adjusted the tour because the Capilano park was absolutely amazing. We could have easily spent another 1 or 2 there. The rest of the tour was just okay.

Beautiful scenic views.

Judith_W, May 2025

These are some of the most beautiful scenic places I've seen. Our guide was fantastic and I'm so happy we chose this excursion.

Great post cruise excursion

Linda_F, Oct 2024

Jennifer our guide was great. So sad the weather was not so couldn’t see much on the mountain! Bears were great and bridge fun with tree walk. We got taken to airport in a load of traffic and got there in time. Thank you Jennifer.

Brilliant even in the rain !!

Alison_H, Sep 2024

Quentin was fantastic all day long. Engaging, fun, professional and dealt with a couple of tricky passengers exceptionally well. Despite the rain and mist we still had a fun tour and I can only imagine how extra amazing this would be with clear dry skies. Great tour and plenty of time to explore at each stop. Thanks Q

Too long at Grouse mountain

Patricia_P, Sep 2024

Because he had passengers going to airport for late flight he stayed at grouse mountain way too long. Other people were going to hotels so no thought to them.

This excursion was totally worth the price !! Our tour guide, John, made our day one to remember.

Michael_U, Sep 2024

Our group enjoyed: (1) a punctual pickup and easy drive through downtown Vancouver; (2) an informative ride on our way to the cable cars; (3) a fun time on Grouse Mountain taking in the bird and lumberjack shows plus many great sights; and finally, (4) an unbelievable experience at the Capiliano bridge site - especially walking the many rain forest trails. Needless to say, we all slept good that night !!

beautiful but could of had more info.

Kathryn_D, Sep 2024

The rain forest was stunning. Fish hatchery was cool. Our guide was okay. Seem that he could have been more involved in the tour rather than dropping us off and having us meet back up with him afterwards. Noticed the other tour guide for the other bus walking around with his group in all 3 parks.

A great way to see Vancouver!

Naresh_S, Sep 2024

A great way to see Vancouver BC. Be prepared to walk around. The guide Shawn was great and showed us a good time!

Wonderful overview of major attractions around Vancouver. We especially enjoyed Grouse Mountain. Rodrigo was a great tour guide. It really made waiting to go to the airport enjoyable. Would recommend for those who have a long wait for their airplane departure.

Fun day in Vancouver

Robert_C, Jul 2024

Interesting historical information, sights, and activities at Capilano and Grouse mountain. My favorite were the two Grizzlies Grinder and Coola and their story. Our tour guide Rob was awesome and he made the whole day even better.
