We booked this tour to reduce the amount of time we had to sit in the airport before our red eyes. Every minute of this tour was worth it and then some. Charles was our guide. He picked us up outside the cruise terminal. Loaded our luggage into the van and took us through Vancouver giving information and History. We then made our way on the sea to sky highway. Stopping in horseshoe bay at a delicious coffee shop, Goldie’s, for coffee, excellent donuts and bathroom/rest. From there we stopped at Shannon falls. Charles walked with us up the trail and took the group photo for us. Our next stop was Whistler. What a neat resort area. Overall great day, great sights, safe driver and at the end Charles dropped us at the airport.

Charles was exceptional- excellent driver, fascinating conversation, he seems to know everyone along the way- the Mayor or King Charles!! We had such fun with him. The company was excellent with all of my questions, our change in tour date, and flexibility with our schedule. We had such a great time we didn’t want it to end. Charles took us to off the beaten path locations, a fabulous donut shop, Shannon Falls is stunning. Clean and comfortable vehicle with plenty of room for our luggage and passengers. Water to keep us hydrated. We highly recommend this tour and tour operator. Book with Charles if you can and enjoy your day. Thank you so much for your accommodation to our schedule and needs.
