Trip up to Whistler via Shannon Falls was great with knowledgeable driver. However, when this tour was booked, I specifically asked if peak to peak gondola would be operating as my group was very keen to experience the cable car. I was advised by Viator booking agent that yes, it was. Much to the disappointment of myself and 9 fellow travellers, it was not. Most of my group then spent further CA270 plus per person doing quad bike tour which was fantastic, but not planned. Hence my rating of the tour is 3 star but would have rated higher if the peak to peak gondola would have been available to experience.

Spent a great sunny day outside the city. Nice to have all the great outdoor activities accessible within a short ride. The trip was very relaxing and rejuvenating. Our guide is very knowledgeable and friendly. Whistler is a must see when you are in Vancouver.

Seeing Whistler in summer was, for us, great. A lot of activity with people on the mountain bikes all around. Plenty of places to walk around and find something new and different. Good driver who kept us informed all the time. The bus could have been a little newer but was fine. The falls were great to see too. A great day out.

This was a fantastic day out and our guide Hermon was very informative, friendly and amusing. He gave us a running commentary all the way and stopped off for many photo opportunities. We were picked up from our hotel on time and dropped off outside. I couldn't ask for a better day out.

We took this tour in late September. Jeff was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable and informative. He was very accommodating to our group. He offered suggestions for lunch and took us around Whistler before dropping us off for the day. Beautiful scenery and excellent tour guide!

Another amazing tour. Loved the views on the way to Whistler and back of course. Whistler it self was great to explore.

Really good day tour. Unfortunately for us on the day of our tour their was extensive smoke haze from bushfires. Early on we had a short coffee stop at Horseshoe Bay, a delightful little village. The bus ride to Shannon Falls is very scenic, much of it along the coastline. Shannon Falls are very impressive and well worth the stopover. Whistler is a beautiful village. Unfortunately, due to the thick smoke haze we were advised the gondola ride would probably not be suitable on this day which was unfortunate as we were looking forward to riding up the mountain. Would recommend this tour.

On time pickup. Unfortunately it rained in the afternoon and low cloud meant the mountain peaks were hidden. However Ed the driver gave a great commentary and gave us options as to where we could go to see other sites. A well timed tour with plenty of fuel and comfort stops.Whistler is delightful with lots to see and do, and plenty of food and drinking options. All in all a great day despite the weather.

We enjoyed going to Whistler, riding the gondola up to the peak and then riding the Peak to Peak gondola. The sights were beautiful. The only thing that may have made it better was more time. After going up and down the mountains and riding the gondolas, we did not have any time left to enjoy the stores or the area.

Nice tour in a beautiful new bus. Driver was knowledgeable and since we ran on schedule got some bonus stops at sights on the way back from Whistler.

I think it depends which tour guide you get. Ours was personable and unflappable. Scenery is what it's about he took us to a couple of nice places off beaten track as well.

Tour guide was amazing, made a few impromptu stops along the way for some great photo opportunities. Explained everything very well along the sea-to-sky highway and the scenery is definitely worth it. For sure go for the cable car when you reach Whistler Blackcomb, worth the hassle for the amazing view up top.

Excellent tour. Guide picked us up at our hotel and we started our tour to Whistler stopping in at Shannon Falls, which were beautiful and Squarmish. Our time in Whistler was great, highly recommend taking the peak to peak gondala, the view from the top of the mountains are amazing. Guide was full of information. A great day for our family.
