We were picked up on July 8 th at our hotel the Sheraton Wall for a half day tour of Vancouver. Our driver/ guide was waiting for us ( early by 10 minutes). She was friendly, warm,informative and dynamic. Her name was Randy and she was from.. Discovery Tours. She drove us to Stanley Park first, then to Granville Island. Giving us valuable and informative information along the way. She had the whole mini bus of approx 20 people laughing and engaged. Her sense of humour was better than any comedienne. As a matter of fact, someone asked her if she was a professional entertainer. Her instructions were clear and easy. I cannot say enough about her. We were so lucky to have had her on this tour because it made the day that much more exciting. My advise when in Vancouver, is to ask for her as your tour guide. We have had many tours in the last 9 days of our trip from Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Kamloops and Vancouver but this was by far the BEST experience.Read full review
Many thanks to Rene our driver guide for his very professional and respectful approach. Throw in some levity and history, and it made for a perfect overview of some of the great areas in Vancouver. It gave us some great ideas for further ex..ploration on our own. Went back to the Steam Clock, Gastown, Granville Island and Denman Street with a bit of knowledge in our back pocketRead full review
Drive through Stanley Park and the rainforest. Glanville island was also an unexpected joy.
Our tour driver Rene was great and the bus was comfortable and great for me as I am a little restricted with my mobility and access was good.
We had a great 4 hour tour of Vancouver proper before boarding a cruise shipnfor Alaska. With only a half day to spend, thus was the perfect way to get a sense of the highlights and neighborhoods of downtown. Our guide/driver was knowledgea..ble, funny, patient (the one time a few guests were late returning) and a very good driver. We got a great understanding of the City, Stanley Park and Granville Island. Highly recommend if you are short on time and want a sense if what makes Vancouver.Read full review
96% Would have taken all the other tours if we had had more time.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Vancouver with my mother, we took the tour to Whistler and our experience was made unforgettable by an exceptional tour guide named Marcos. It felt like we were exploring the country with an old frie..nd who showed genuine care and concern for the issues that take place in his city. His charisma and sense of humor kept us engaged and entertained throughout the day.Read full review
Faye was knowledgeable about the area, fun, a safe driver, calm, entertaining. The your f Stanley Park was amazing and we did not feel rushed. We liked having enough time in Granville Is to eat lunch and learning about the North end, Yaleto..wn helped us have a good overview of the beautiful city.Read full review
We had a great couple of days exploring the city with a large group of international students. The trip was well organized and the entire group had a great time. Our guide Ryan was fantastic. He was entertaining, organized and fun. He was s..uper personable and engaging and made our job as chaperones much easier. We will definitely be requesting him to guide future trips.Read full review
When looking for a tour, I expected a 4 hour tour to be in the morning OR the afternoon, but the 10 to 2 worked really well with lunch at the Public Market on Grandville Island. We finished in 3 1/2 hours. I would like to add the last 1/2 h..our driving/narrating one of the striking parts of the city such as the residential part Greg mentioned or the movie industry or something else that Vancouver has that we should see.Read full review
Greg, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. I liked that he shared a couple of post-tour suggestions which we did including taking the ferry to North Vancouver. Two stops including Granville Island market and a shorter stop to ..see Totems and catch a view at Stanley park.Read full review
The driver picked us up on time was very pleasant and more important was very knowledgeable about Vancouver and answered any questions.We all had a great day.
Tour bus driver (Herman) was great and did a fantastic job explaining the highlights of Vancouver. Please consider a step stool when getting off the bus as some stops were a bit high especially for some short folks. The bus was a bit unfo..rtable and tight sitting. Herman was great with the luggage and did a great job. The only reason for the four stars was the comfort of the bus and no step down stool. Vancouver was a great city to visit. Thank you!Read full review
