An excellent tour. There was great communication by email prior to the tour. And when I missed the pickup time I was able to ring the company and Brent the driver and our tour guide came back to collect me. There was only myself and one other person on the tour. So we had the mini bus to ourselves! Brent gave us a great introduction to Vancouver. He is a courteous driver and a very knowledgeable guide to the city. Brent was accomodating and flexible around the timing of the opportunities to explore the Totem Pokes in Stanley Park and the markets at Granville Island. He also dropped each of us at our destinations at the end of the tour, nothing was too much trouble. This short tour is a really good way to understand the history and the geography of the city. I recommend this company and this tour. By the way if you wish to tip - and I was very happy to, you will need cash!

Jeremy was so informative, we absolutely loved our bike tour. We discovered and learnt so many aspects of the city in one tour. It was well worth the money.

The guide is nice and knowledgeable. The trip is recommended for those who only have limited time in Vancouver.

A fast and efficient tour! It's definitely something I'll use again when I'm traveling.

Must-do if you don't have much time to visit Vancouver.
