Itinerary
Leave the city behind and cruise the legendary Sea to Sky Highway, where ocean views and mountain peaks steal the show. Your guide shares local insight along the way, turning the drive into part of the adventure—not just a transfer.
Stretch your legs at Shannon Falls, a powerful 1,100-foot waterfall just steps from the parking area. A short, easy walk brings you face-to-face with one of BC’s most impressive natural sights—mist, thunder, and all!
Ride the iconic Sea to Sky Gondola to soaring viewpoints over Howe Sound and the Coast Mountains. At the summit, explore scenic trails, visit the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge, and enjoy panoramic views without breaking a sweat! Exclusion: For departures from Nov 12–24, 2025, the Sea to Sky Gondola will be closed for maintenance. Admission is not included during this period, the tour price has been adjusted accordingly, and the tour will end approximately 2 hours earlier than usual. Tips: If the SkyCable Car is temporarily closed due to maintenance or other reasons, the scheduled visit to that attraction will be cancelled. The tour guide will arrange a refund for this portion of the fee on-site. Please refer to the actual opening status of the attraction on the day of your tour.
Welcome to Whistler Village—where après-ski meets upscale charm and cobblestone strolls come with mountain views! Spend free time in Whistler Village, a pedestrian-only alpine hub filled with boutiques, cafés, and world-class restaurants. Whether you’re shopping, sipping something warm, or just soaking up the mountain atmosphere, this is peak Whistler energy.
End the day with a peaceful stop at Porteau Cove, where calm waters and mountain silhouettes create the perfect final photo moment before heading back to Vancouver.

It was a truly memorable experience with our tour guide, Haliey. As a solo traveler, I felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely welcomed throughout the tour. Haliey is incredibly knowledgeable about the city and made sure everyone felt included by translating between English and Taiwanese for guests who didn’t speak English. She also has a great eye for photography and kindly took wonderful photos for me, which I especially appreciated since I was traveling alone. She drove safely, kept the tour well organized, and made sure we all returned to the city without any issues. Thank you, Haliey, for making this such an enjoyable and memorable experience. I would highly recommend this tour!
