Great family fun…even for teens!
We had a great time! Chris communicated with us the day before with a reminder of the details and picked our family up right on schedule the day of. He educated us along the drive and made the whole experience wonderful. He was very kind and provided snacks and water too! Highly recommend! Even our teens (16, 14, and 11) had fun and they’re a tough crowd!

A fun getaway if only have a day to explore Vancouver
Chris our driver and our tour guide was experienced and knowledgeable. We had a wonderful day and was happy with the experience. He even sent us a link to do the FlyoverCanada so we could experience it since we didn’t buy it at the time of booking. He was great every step of the way even helping get us to our hotel. If we had family coming to Seattle we would recommend send them with Chris for their own adventure in Vancouver.

Seriously!!!!!...
Seriously!!!!!
A mistake was made. Booking appeared as 5th instead of when 16th when I'll be Seattle.
You passed the buck to the tour group. I did not book with a tour group. I booked a tour with Viator. I Promise this will be the last time unless I am compensated.

Ryan did a great job...
Ryan did a great job explaining the history and important sites throughout our trip. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer our questions. We really appreciated his professionalism and effort.
Unfortunately, there were several issues with how the tour was organized that we were not made aware of until the day of the tour. We had to drop people off at two different hotels and then pick up a large group of additional guests. This took away valuable sightseeing time and delayed our return home. Some guests were also inconsiderate, which made the experience more frustrating.
We also spent approximately 45 minutes to an hour at immigration because one guest had brought more of a particular item than was allowed and did not want to dispose of it. While I understand that unexpected situations can happen, it was disappointing to lose a significant portion of our tour time to something unrelated to the tour itself.
These details should have been clearly explained in the tour information before booking, including that this tour group is intended for guests of a specific ethnicity.
Ryan himself was excellent, but unfortunately, because of the way the tour was organized and the amount of time lost, I would not recommend this tour company.

I’d strongly recommend a day trip to Vancouver with Ryan.
Ryan is a fabulous tour guide. He picked us up at a spot that was convenient, gave history and great advice the entire day and helped us catch our ferry. He was just phenomenal. We saw so much.
