We had a fun time with Sean, visiting a variety of restaurants! The food was delicious, there was plenty to eat and drink while we learned a little about Vancouver too! We had a big group from Australia, Canada and the US and everyone interacted to share our travels and adventures. Not too much walking overall. So fun, I highly recommend it!

Excellent trip and very helpful guide
The day trip was excellent. Kim Jin was our tour guide. He was very helpful and punctual. I am scared of heights. Kim helped me go through the Capilona bridge and was with me throughout where I had to pass through heights. 5 stars to Kim and his caring nature.

Emad was an excellent...
Emad was an excellent tour guide. He showed up right on time and took us on a great tour. We saw all the different areas of Vancouver from the bustling inner city to beautiful parks and the gorgeous ocean views. He took us to lunch at a Persian restaurant that had some of the best food we had ever eaten. All throughout the tour, Emad told us interesting information about the sights we were seeing. As a bonus, he was a very and engaging person. We would highly recommend Cool Vancouver as a tour company and Emad as a guide.
