Best Tour Guide in Vancouver!

Our tour host Bobby was simply amazing! He had a wealth of knowledge on everything about Vancouver. He took us on a personal 8-hour tour of all of the best sights of Vancouver and expertly narrated the entire day. The van he used was fantastic, very comfortable and enjoyable. I strongly recommend this tour and the host Bobby.

Thank you Bobby!

Had a wonderful time on this tour! Bobby was incredibly kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. Stopped along the coast at multiple spots with incredible views of everything Vancouver & Squamish has to offer- Stanley Park, Shannon Falls, Howe Sound, the Tantalus Mountains and more. Would definitely recommend this tour to pack a lot of sight seeing into your visit to Vancouver.

Operator response

Hello Devon, Thank you very much for your review. You and your friends were such a fun to host - cheerful, asked lots of questions, engaging, have lots of energy, and showed me Witches' Butter!. I am very happy that you all enjoyed your sightseeing, and hiking activities, and the food. Do visit Vancouver again for other fun and exciting activities. Cheers. Bobby
