Lucio is so friendly and welcoming. He also has good knowledge of Vancouver. Thanks for making my last day in Vancouver interesting Lucio!
Ashleigh, thank you so much for the lovely review! It was a pleasure having you with us and I’m really glad we could make your last day in Vancouver a memorable one. Thank you for choosing YellowCap Experience, and safe travels on your next adventure!
This was a great experience!! Friendly guide and knows a lot about the City of Vancouver. We had plenty of time to explore and the small group tours he offers are the best !! Don’t wait to Book your trip
Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the relaxed pace, had plenty of time to explore, and appreciated the small group experience. Your recommendation means a lot, especially the encouragement for future travelers not to wait to book. It was a pleasure showing you around Vancouver!
Lucio provided my husband and I a great overview of Vancouver. He was very accommodating when we thought we would arrive at our cruise port a bit late and even allowed us to store our luggage in the van. We had a nice overview of different neighborhoods in the city, a stop at the steam lamp, totems at Stanley Park, view of Lions bridge, extra time at Capilano suspension bridge (our request) and quick stop at Granville Island. Listen to his suggestions of the order of things to see as he was spot on! Was a pleasure.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! It was a pleasure meeting you and your husband. I’m really glad we could make the schedule work, keep your luggage safe, and give you extra time to enjoy Capilano at your own pace. It means a lot to hear that my suggestions helped you make the most of the day. Wishing you both many more wonderful travels!
We had a wonderful family experience on this small group Vancouver trip with YellowCap Experience and would recommend booking this to anyone visiting Vancouver. After being on a lot of crowded trips on an Alaska cruise we really appreciated and loved this private small group experience, which was tailored and personalised to our family. Our teenagers loved having the bus to themselves and listening to all the facts and information on each of the stops. Lucio is very likeable and knowledgeable and clearly loves his job and the city Vancouver which made our trip an absolute delight. He even knew where to get the best donuts in town and stopped off so we could get some to the delight of my kids! He knew all the great photo spots and was happy to take our family photos. As he is a local he knows all the great spots of interest in the city and there is nothing he doesn’t know! We didn’t have to queue at the suspension bridge as his tickets are included so we just walked in which was fantastic. He also gave us ample time as a family at each of the stops to see the sights and go explore. He was punctual, friendly and knowledgable and if you want a relaxed and professional sight seeing tour of Vancouver book this trip.
Thank you so much, Suzanne, for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and detailed review. It was a pleasure meeting your family and showing you around Vancouver. I’m so glad everyone enjoyed the smaller, more personal experience, and that the doughnut stop was a hit with the kids! You were such a lovely family to spend the day with, and I truly enjoyed our conversations along the way. Thank you again for choosing YellowCap Experience and for sharing so many details about your day. We hope the rest of your travels were just as memorable, and we would love to welcome you back to Vancouver someday!
Amazing trip. Our guide Yav was so knowledgeable, personable, and funny. He engaged in conversation with my entire family. He told us so much about the city but also let us explore on our own. Pick up was so easy as it was right at our hotel. Couldn’t recommend more!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear your family enjoyed the tour with Yav. He’ll be thrilled to know his knowledge, personality, and conversations made such a positive impression. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Vancouver someday. Safe travels!
I highly recommend the small group tour! Our tour guide Luciano was great and was flexible with timing, which was great! You should know a big portion of the cost is in the entrance fees to the park! Capilano was fantastic!
Hi Laurie, thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a pleasure showing you around Vancouver and Capilano. We’re so happy the flexibility of our small group experience helped make your day even more enjoyable. Thank you as well for mentioning the value of the Capilano admission, as many guests don’t realize it’s included in the tour price. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Vancouver one day!
This is a great introduction to Vancouver, our tour guide had a lot of tips and ideas to give us along the way to help us discover Vancouver. He shared a lot of knowledge when visiting the different places on our itinerary. Very friendly and easy going tour guide made the tour very personalised.

I’m delighted to hear you enjoyed the local tips, stories, and personalized experience. That’s exactly what we strive to offer every guest.

Our group had an excellent experience with Yellowcap Experience tours, our tour guide Lucio was excellent! We got to see all the popular tourist attractions in Vancouver with our private tour guide and van. Capilano Suspension Bridge was really something. The weather was perfect so it really helped make our day trip experience perfect!
Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your private tour and were able to experience some of Vancouver’s most iconic attractions. Capilano is truly a special place, and we’re glad the beautiful weather helped make the day even more memorable. Thank you for your trust, and we hope to welcome you back to Vancouver one day for more adventures!
Lucia was amazing!! Very knowledgeable, punctual, and looove the small group experience. He has THE best personality & just goes above & beyond to make your experience wonderful!! Will definitely book with him again when here!
Hellooo, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the small-group experience. Creating a more personal, flexible, and relaxed way to explore Vancouver is exactly what we aim for, so it’s great to know that came through during your day with us. Thank you for your trust, and we hope to welcome you back to Vancouver for more adventures in the future :)
This tour hit all of the Vancouver sites to see on our list. Pick up from the hotel was easy. The early pickup time allowed us to get slightly ahead of the large bus tours. We had ample allotted time at the Gastown Steam Clock, totem poles, Stanley Park, Lions Bridge, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park and Granville Island. Don’t miss the Cliffwalk at Capilano. It’s an engineering marvel. With only two of us on the eight person limit tour, Lucio delivered an outstanding tour tailored to us in a comfortable van. If we ever get back to Vancouver, we will definitely book with Yellow Cap tours again.
Hi Andrea, thank you so much for your kind review, it really means a lot. I’m glad you enjoyed the pace of the day and that we could stay ahead of the crowds, that always makes a big difference. Capilano and the Cliffwalk are definitely special highlights, so I’m happy they stood out for you. It was a pleasure spending the day with you, and I hope we get to welcome you back to Vancouver again in the future :)
