Colin's knowledge of, and...

Colin's knowledge of, and passion for, nature, trees and conservation was impressive. From first greeting, he was engaging and personable as he took us on an amazing 'all things trees' journey through beautiful Stanley Park, sharing with us the history of some of the park's ancient trees, some sadly absent, some hidden. It was a great tour, Colin a fabulous guide. Thoroughly recommend this tour.

Gastown History Brought to Life

We had a great time on the Forbidden Vancouver Walking Tour! Marina was a fantastic guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and very entertaining. We learned so much about the history of Gastown, along with fun little secrets and stories we never would have discovered on our own. Marina really brought the history to life and kept the tour interesting from beginning to end. A fun and unique way to experience Vancouver. Highly recommend!

An immersive experience

The BC Black History walking tour was really eye-opening. It felt like a crash course in all this new info about BC's black history and the community that grew there, stuff everyone should know.Roy, our guide, was super friendly and nice the whole time, checking in on everyone and keeping us all engaged, which made it a really immersive experience.Honestly, I'd totally recommend it to locals and tourists in Vancouver. It's a story that definitely needs to be heard!

Erika made our tour exceptional

Erika tailored the tour to our interests. We learned a lot about the history of Vancouver, significant architecture, and places we would have overlooked. We should have booked a longer tour. We were in Gastown, at the conclusion of our tour, and had many choices for where to have lunch!

Excellent tour with Hillary

Excellent tour with Hillary and lucky enough for it to be a 4:1 intimate group for just our family! A great blend of knowledge related to the movies, locations and ‘the trade’ with some great clips on the iPad, alongside some insightful commentary on the city and its history. Time very well spent!

Private Vancouver Running Tour

Awesome guide & tour! We...

Awesome guide & tour! We ended up doing the running tour a couple of days into our Vancouver trip instead of at the beginning, but he made it even better by customizing the route based on what we'd already seen. Before the tour, he took the time to learn what we wanted to experience and showed us new neighborhoods and sights we probably wouldn't have found on our own. He also shared great recommendations for the rest of our trip and even ideas for our next visit. Friendly, knowledgeable, and a fantastic host—I highly recommend this tour!
