The trip was great, our driver/guide Alex was great. Funny and very knowledgeable!

The whole day was fantastic, Jason was a brilliant guide! He has so much knowledge of the local areas we visited and shared some great recommendations with us too. The transport was really comfortable. I think we got lucky with the day and had insane views from the top of the sea to sky gondola. Whistler was great, we could have spent more time there than the 3hrs, but it was a good taster and we will for sure try go back! Would totally recommend this to anyone visiting Vancouver

The gondola trip was amazing. The snow capped trees on the way up and the fantastic views up there were magical. The food in the restaurant at the top was really good too. Whistler was also a lovely place to visit. Full of people skiing and plenty of restaurants and shops
