Victoria and Butchart Gardens Day Trip

The best family day together…

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Vancouver. The ferry ride, Butchart Gardens, and Victoria were all beautiful. Everything was well planned, and we had enough time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Our guide was friendly and made the trip easy and enjoyable. We’d happily book another tour with Arrow Travel & Transit the next time we’re back.

Capilano Suspe Bridge & Grouse Mountain Limited Small Group Tour

Howard_B, Jul 2026

Great visit to Capilano and Grouse Mtn!

We had a wonderful day on our tour with Lucio (our YellowCap guide) to Capilano and Grouse Mountain! Lucio was super friendly and provided great info on the sites we visited as well as other spots along the way, and he even sent us suggestions for later in our trip. We were blessed with gorgeous weather, and we really enjoyed the magnificent trees and trails at Capilano Park. We arrived early so we were lucky to be ahead of the crowds that showed up later. We also enjoyed Grouse Mountain - the cable car ride up, the grizzly bears, and the gravity coaster. Afterward, Lucio asked where we wanted to be dropped off, and he made some suggestions. We ended up doing a quick stop at Crumbl for delicious cookies and then Lucio dropped us off at the Shipyards area for lunch. Overall, a fantastic tour!

A wonderful sailing adventure

What a fantastic evening on a gorgeous boat! Our family loved our excursion with Vancouver By Sea. The sailboat is beautiful with comfortable seating and shelter from wind and sun. Our group included grandparents, parents and teens. We enjoyed the stunning views and learning about the harbour. We saw seals and heard that they have seen lots of whales recently. The skipper and crew were friendly and informative. They are very competent sailers and eager to share their passion with others. Thanks for a great trip!
