Traveler reviews

All the drivers were very friendly and helpful —Sherry was by far the most candid and fun. Hop-on-Hop-off was perfect for our visit because we could choose our interests and truly enjoy them. Bring a jacket if you are cold-natured… the ac was freezing 🥶
Terrible, Terrible
The day and night tour were horrible. The day tour was so unorganized and the drivers were unpleasant and seemed to not like each other. The recorded message didn’t follow along with the views. The recording would say one thing and the bus had already passed what we were supposed to be looking at.
Amazing tour by Sherry. We jumped on Sherry’s bus for our 2nd round trip. She is very knowledgeable and fun to ride.
Sherry is the best tour guide. We really enjoyed her ride very much. Thanks!
Amazing if you can find Sherry as your driver
We took this tour from Canada place back to Canada Place. The first bus we got on had the pre-recorded tour & it kept glitching, cutting off mid sentence, etc. We ended up getting off at Stanley Park & when we got back on….heaven. Our driver was Sherry (like the Spanish wine) & she was amazing. She gave a running commentary & gave us so much more entertainment than the pre-recorded bus. Highly recommend searching out Sherry as your driver
Look for Sherry(like the fine wine)
Initially the tour started with a recording, was quite disappointed. We then got off at Stanley Park and spent time there. The next bus arrived and Sherry was the driver/tour guide. She was excellent!! The tour improved tenfold and Sherry not only provided great information about Vancouver but did so with some comedy and a touch of sarcasm!! 10/10 with Sherry!!
