It was fascinating to learn the history of the site and the show at the end was impressive. Tour guide was knowledgable and made the experience educational and fun. Close to Sea to Sky Gondola and a great drive from Vancouver.

We really enjoyed the experience! Excellent tour guide, fun and full of great information.
