We had the best time with Ryan. He gave us the best insights, historical information, and fun facts about Whistler. We enjoyed our tour and have a new found appreciation for Whistler and the people.
Amazing! Thanks for the thoughtful review : )
great tour! Been going to Whistler over 10+ years. This tour showed us so much we never knew about. Ryan was awesome!
Amazing to hear, thanks for reviewing : )
An excellent overview of Whistler that expanded our appreciation of the area, and ways to enjoy it. It included Whistler's founding and history; the innovative way they make it livable for staff; hidden gems that locals frequent; and most fascinating--the Whistler Sliding Center--where we later watched a luge competition. Ryan was informative, engaging, and conducted the tour at the perfect pace. Highly recommend.
This is so nice to hear! Thank you for the thoughtful review of your private tour of Whistler :)
This was our 5th trip to Whistler - and yet we saw new things and learned so much! would recommend doing this at the beginning of your trip!

My family did a private tour with Ryan and it was one of the best parts of our trip. We were able to see places that we wouldn't have seen on our own. Ryan was knowledgeable and friendly. He also gave us recommendations of restaurants and activities in the area. This tour should be on your must do list.
We appreciate this thoughtful review of your experience. Thanks for taking the time:)
Would Recommend the excellent whistler sightseeing tour. In half a day Ryan showed us around the key parts of the Whistler Valley and gave us a great overview of the various sights. It was really informative and good fun. He also provided us with his own personal recommendations re things to do, places to eat and drink etc which was really useful. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
