Itinerary
Pass by: Departure from downtown Vancouver on the way to Whistler! Travel along the scenic Sea to Sky Highway.
The pedestrian village of Whistler is located at the base of world-famous Whistler-Blackcomb Mountains. This world famous ski resort also hosted many 2010 Olympic outdoor sporting events. Spend an afternoon exploring eclectic downtown shops and cafes, hiking along nature trails, or relaxing and breathing in the fresh mountain air.
**From November 12–28, 2025, the Sea to Sky Gondola will be closed. Tour pricing and duration have been adjusted to reflect the closure, with the tour operating for 8 hours instead of 10 hours** Our next stop is the awe-inspiring Sea to Sky Gondola. After an exciting 10-minute ride to the top of Habrich Ridge, your views change dramatically, rising above the towering canopy of a coastal rainforest and upward above Howe Sound and the neighbouring mountains.
With a stop near Squamish, Shannon Falls is the 3rd highest falls in British Columbia. Take a few minutes to view the thundering waterfall and capture some fantastic images on your camera!

Traveler reviews
A fun filled day
It was a long day but it was a lot of fun. The Sea to Sky Gondola was great. Whistler was interesting . We walked to the Cultural Center which was a nice museum. Shannon Falls was beautiful. Driver Ed gave a great commentary. Highly recommend this excursion
Beautiful day on Whistler
This was a beautiful trip up to Whistler. Our first stop was the Sea to Sky gondola, which was a very cool experience. The views were magnificent, and the nature up there was beautiful. Our time in Whistler was fantastic…such cute shops and great restaurants. As I was reading Yelp reviews of restaurants up there, many people were remarking on the prices. Whistler is a resort town…if you are not ready to pay “resort town prices”, don’t go. Our final stop was Shannon Falls, which was really magnificent. Andy was a great guide, even though he repeated himself quite a lot (and I don’t mean about logistics, because repeating those is necessary). It was a great day, and I would definitely recommend this tour.
Love Jason!
Great trip. Jason was amazing!! He was funny and knowledgeable. The sites were incredible. Each stop you had enough time to soak in.
Whistler and Shannon Falls experience.
Interesting info all the way to Whistler. A very bustling town even in the off ski season. Shannon Falls was also very majestic.
Great.
The locations we visited were excellent as was our tour guide Jessica.
