Do this tour - Wonderful way to spend the day exploring the beauty of Vancouver and Whistler. Guide and driver had to compromise quickly as we ran into a few snags due to road closures,. Vancouver marathon had closed streets and park for awhile, but they made it all happen. They even accommodated my husband's frequent requests for photo opportunities. They were so thoughtful and worked with us every step of the way . We felt very special and catered to. Definitely do this tour if you are near Vancouver.

An Amazing Day! - This full day tour Whistler tour exceeded my expectations! We were picked up at our Vancouver hotel in the morning and returned about 6pm. The scenery along the way is absolutely spectacular. We had unrushed time to enjoy Shannon falls, the Sea to Sky Gondola, lunxh and some time to explore in Whistler Village and scenic stops on the way back to Vancouver. Although we stopped install many things, the tour felt unrushed. Amir, the driver/guide is knowledgeable, accommodating and very kind.

Whistler/Shannon Falls + Victoria/Butchart Gardens - My friends and I had the pleasure of enjoying two tours with vantrips.ca. First, the Whistler tour with all the stops mentioned, and another full day trip to Victoria and Butchart Gardens two days later. Amir was so very kind, and we could not have asked for a more pleasant experience. "Wonderful" doesn't begin to cover it. Amir is also an excellent photographer and generously took many photos and shared them with us. Stop your search, you won't find better than vantrips.ca.

Fun Whistler Experience - We took the tour to Whistler and it was amazing. The tour was very personalized and Amir was a great, friendly tour guide. He made sure everyone was taken care of and got to do everything they wanted to do. He even gave out great snacks with tea/coffee/hot chocolate. I hope to take one of his tours again in the future!

Gorgeous Tour Not To Be Missed - First off- Thank You. Though our driver didn’t have a lot of experience, he was very nice and kind and helpful. Showed us all kinds of cool things. We were grateful for him. Was a great 9 hour day- Stanley Park, Shannon Falls, Sea to Sky Gondola, Whistler and a great drive back. Would definitely recommend.

The natural beauty delivered; the tour service did not. - Review for “Whistler: Sea to Sky Gondola, Shannon & Brandywine Falls Tour” – Provider: Vantrips.ca My wife and I had a mixed experience on this tour — the scenery itself was absolutely worth seeing, but the service we received did not match what was promised or what we paid for. First, the positives: The Sea‑to‑Sky drive was beautiful and full of photo‑worthy views. Each stop offered plenty of time to explore, and the waterfalls were truly amazing. The natural sights themselves made the day worthwhile, and we never felt rushed at any of the locations. Unfortunately, the service side of the tour fell far short of expectations. We were left waiting for pickup for about 25 minutes with no communication. The tour was advertised as private, but at the last minute another passenger was added without any notice. We were also promised an executive mini‑bus, yet a standard Honda van arrived instead — a surprising downgrade. The tour guide, Farshid, brought his brother‑in‑law to drive because he had a sciatic medical condition that prevented him from walking to some of the sites. As a result, his brother‑in‑law escorted us at the stops, but we were never told his name or role. There was no real orientation or explanation at any location; in fact, the guide seemed to be taking pictures as if it were his first time visiting. It felt less like a guided tour and more like we were sharing a ride with another passenger and being dropped off at each stop. The tour description also promised “coffee & tea,” but the only refreshment offered was water. When the guide did speak, he had no microphone, faced forward, and spoke so quietly that it was difficult to hear anything — the person in the back seat couldn’t hear him at all. In the end, while the sights were wonderful, we could have easily done this on our own without paying for what amounted to an expensive Uber‑style ride with minimal guiding. The natural beauty delivered; the tour service did not.
