Great Tour of the City

My wife and I had a day after our cruise to spend in Vancouver. They were flexible with the start time based on when we got off the ship and then Ricky picked us up in a Cadillac Escalade and took us around in style. He explained that city as we drove and took us through the city. All in all it was a great way to experience the city. I recommend the tour to anyone.

Operator response

Thank you for the wonderful review Ken.We’re so glad you enjoyed your 6-hour private Vancouver tour and that Ricky made your experience comfortable and enjoyable. It was a pleasure showing you around Vancouver, and we truly appreciate the recommendation Regards Team Vanlimo

Great service!

Great way when to see Vancouver with limited time. Our driver picked us up on time and took us all around the city. He modified the schedule to fit our “likes”. He was patient and kind when we took longer than expected at one stop. He gave us the freedom to walk around each stop so we could explore. Keep in mind that this is a private driver just for you! We feel it was well worth the price when you take into account that the driver is very familiar with the city, will park and be accessible as needed when you explore the sites. We enjoyed this service so much that we hired them to drive us to the airport the next day.

Operator response

Thank you for the positive feedback Monique. We are glad that our service was top to your expectations and you enjoyed your city tour. We look forward to provide you our services next time you are in Vancouver. Thank you for using our service. Regards Ricky

Perfect day in Vancouver

We only had one day to see Vancouver and this tour was a great way to spend our time. Our group of 7 was picked up at the airport in a van that easily accommodated us and lots of luggage. What a convenience to be able to keep our luggage with us until hotel check-in. The planned stops were fun and interesting for a group with varied ages. We did not feel rushed and saw a lot in 6 hours. Ricky was a great guide, friendly and knowledgeable of the city. We especially enjoyed lunch in the market - so many choices of great food and pastries. Overall, we could not have found a better option for our one day in this amazing city.

Operator response

Thank you Gary. We are glad that you enjoyed the city tour. It was pleasure to meet you all. We look forward to provide you our services next time you are in Vancouver. Thank you for choosing our services next and positive feedback. Regards Ricky

Tour of Vancouver

Our family of 5 adults had a great time w Tour Guide Ricky. We just got off the Royal Carribbean Cruise from Alaska and it was a terrific tour to extend our trip. Guide was prompt and knew exactly where to pick us up from at the dock. Canopy walk was excellent, gondola ride was also excellent as well as the market.

Great tour and guide

Can customize on a personnel preference which was nice. Love the sites on the tour but was a little pricey since tickets to a couple attractions were not included.

Operator response

Thank you Pamela for using our services and we are glad that tour was up to your expectations. We don't include tickets for Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain for few reasons. Grouse Mountain tickets are very expensive ($87 /person ) and attraction is very weather dependent as most of people will skip the attraction if its raining or weather is cloudy and Grouse mountain won't refund us if we buy the tickets in advance . Capilano Suspension Bridge is ($76.00 /person ) Unique but lot of walking is involved, so people with mobility issue or people scared of heights will skip this attraction. Some guests will spend more time and other attractions if they skip both these attractions. It's very difficult for us to find out that in advance. For this reason, we have tour exclusively for Capilano and grouse mountain and tickets are included in that tour . We know that tickets to these attractions are expensive but that is beyond our control. Thank you so much for using our service and we appreciate your feedback. It was very nice to meet all four of you. Thank you very much. Regards Ricky

Great Private Tour

We did this private tour in Vancouver and had a great experience. Ricky was great and very knowledgeable. We saw all the major attractions of Vancouver. Ricky took us to Gas town at perfect time to steam clock when it was time for all the bells and whistles. Stanley park was amazing. Every thing from booking was smooth. The Vehicle was a brand new Cadillac SUV, perfect for 4 of us. We recommend this Company if you are looking for quality private tour in Vancouver.

Happy touring from New York

This was a phenomenal experience from inception. I spoke with Ricky and he was quick to accommodate all of my requests including car size and ensuring that he was our guide based on others reviews. He texted confirmations and arrival ...upon which he suggested we bring umbrellas just in case. For which we got lucky and not a drop of rainfall. As he drove he shared his vast knowledge of sights and fielded our many American questions. We enjoyed a visit to Stanley park and were introduced to the beautiful totem poles. The highlight of the trip was the one thing I had no intension of doing visiting the Capano Suspension Bridge as I have an intense fear of heights. This experience turned out to be spectacular ...the beauty of the forest and the personal accomplishment of crossing the bridge...not to mention to variety of birds of prey that we were introduced to. Our next stop was Granville island where we enjoyed a sumptuous lunch at a restaurant Ricky suggested and finally some shopping in the gas light district. The experience was beyond expectations !

Operator response

Thank you for the positive Feedback Andrea. It was pleasure meeting you and your friends. I am glad that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you. Regards Ricky
