Things to do in  Whistler

Rainy weather in all parts of the trip, however the guide Steve was great, friendly and helpful. Stopped and saw two waterfalls for great pictures and plenty of time to walk around and grab a bite to eat in whistler itself.

This was a lovely way to fill an afternoon learning a bit about the history of Whistler and getting your bearings. They also gave some good recommendations of places to eat outside the village as well and carried discount vouchers to some of the other attractions.

Was a nice trip from the cruise ship to the mountain top, with the stops to visit the falls and along the Sea to Sky highway. The trams going up from Whistler were amazing, and the Peak to Peak was breathtaking. Cloud cover stopped us from going all the way up to the bridge, but still was a great trip.

Wonderful experience, breath taking views of the mountains and a good way to see experience Whistler if you don't want to take the time to drive. We chose the option of getting a bicycle instead of the shuttle to the main village from the seaplane dock in Whistler and enjoyed exploring on our bikes. We would definitely do this again.

What a way to see the beautiful mountains of Whistler. Our instructors were fun and enthusiastic. Unforgettable experience!

My son and I took a day off of skiing to see Whistler from the sky. I am sure glad we did. It was the highlight of the entire trip! The crew was great. The Blackcomb Avaiation team was first rate. I would highly recommend this.

I highly recommend Ryan’s Whistler half day Tour! He is a friendly and kind host with a lot of Whistler knowledge and lore. We not only learned about the history of Whistler, but we got to see the entire area including Green Lake, Alta Lake, Nita Lake, Function Junction, Creekside, the Sliding Center and the Village, Ryan is a wonderful storyteller and he paints a picture of the characters that came together to create a world class recreational resort. Even got a beer tasting on the tour! 3 hours of entertainment - thank you Ryan!

My husband and I signed up for the 5-hour trip in early September, and it was a blast. Before the trip, Matt sent us an email with detailed instructions on how to get the fishing license (easy enough to do online) and arrange for pick-up. On the day of the trip, Dawson drove us to a quiet, shady spot about 30 minutes away from Whistler that was chock-full of pink salmon. With Dawson's excellent advice, we each caught at least five salmon! Dawson not only served as a fishing guru, but he also helped us unhook the fish when it was time to release them, detangled fishing lines, and took tons of pictures on our phones to commemorate the experience. It was a great day trip, and I would love to return for ice fishing in the winter! For those planning to do the 5-hour adventure, I would recommend bringing water bottles and some snacks. Reeling in fish can take a lot out of you!

Loved the Whistler trip. Our guide Jenny was fun and very knowledgeable. We stopped at Horseshoe Bay, Shanon Falls and then to Whistler. At Whistler we took a separate gondola ride called Peak to Peak which was fun and exciting. All in all, a very nice experience

Although there was poor communication between the tour guide/driver and the tour office staff involving the pick-up time which was delayed more than an hour due to traffic issues, the rest of the tour went well and on time. If not for that annoying glitch, we would have rated the tour "excellent." The tour guide/driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed his commentary and learned a lot as we toured Vancouver and then stopped at Horseshoe Bay, which was very picturesque. The drive along the Sea to Sky Highway was truly worth experiencing. The walk to get a closer look at dramatic Shannon Falls was perfect for stretching our legs. The time at Whistler was adequate to take the series of gondolas, enjoy the beautiful scenery from the summit, and still enjoy a relaxing lunch at the Village before returning to Vancouver. This was a varied and scenery-packed tour that allowed us to explore and appreciate Vancouver, Whistler, and points in between.

The highlight of my trip—and possibly my summer. The wildness and vastness of nature at Vancouver's door—and the sense of its endlessness—is really captured in the flight, particularly the return flight, where the light over the glaciers was lovely. I probably should have taken the 9am flight to Whistler (but, hey, conference and work), but even so, leaving around noon gave me plenty of time to explore Whistler village and head up Whistler Mountain to the Roundhouse. Coffee, beer, photography... awesome. The pilots, crew, and staff of Whistler/Harbour Air were all super friendly. Totally recommended. The perfect day trip to take for those traveling on business or at a conference.

Our three hour snowmobile tour was excellent fun. We were picked up from a hotel in Whistler and driven to the tour base. We rode through winding tracks in a winter wonderland. The snow mobiles we had were brand new so they were comfortable and worked well. The other group didn't have brand new vehicles, but they seemed to work just as well. We rode to a cabin and were welcomed with hot apple cider, a large German sausage and a cookie, all of which were delicious. On our way home we went to a frozen lake where we got to open the snow mobiles up and see what they could do. The whole experience was a blast and something for the bucket list, especially if you come from the tropics like us. Best advice I can give wear your ski gear if you have it. Pants, jacket, googles, gloves just warm gloves will be fine and water proof shoes. You may park your snow mobile in two feet of snow like I did. The tour guide was great about it and had me going again in no time.

Highly recommend this trip which we did to celebrate our45th Anniversary in Whistler, fortunate the weather was good and we were able to fly. Fantastic being able to land on an alpine lake and spend time having a picnic with the sun shining on the lake. Amazing to see the glaciers before we flew back over the mountains back to Green Lake. The pilot explained each manouver in take off and landings, and pointing out places of interest to photograph. One of our highlights of our trip to Canada.

This tour from Vancouver was the highlight of our trip!! Whistler was definitely worth it, but even with over 3 hours it wasn't enough time to see everything. If you're doing the gondola get in line right away or see if you can purchase your ticket online before hand. The line just to buy Gondola tickets was about an hour. That's a lot of wasted time. Go straight to the top of the second leg of the ride. See everything and take pics then stop back at the first peak for more pics then head back down the mountain if you want to explore the town at all. Time runs out fast. We were fortunate enough to see Bears too. The waterfall stop at Shannon Falls was beautiful!! The only negative thing about this tour were the two stops at the sound for bathroom breaks but there was nothing to see at these stops. I would have much rather been able to get out of the car and take pictures at the mining town Britannia Mine instead of just pass by. The other thing I think Viator should do is remove the picture viewed on this tour of the Squamish Suspension Bridge, you don't even stop at Squamish on this tour and that picture is very misleading because that is something you don't even get to do on the tour. Our driver Bijourne (I know that's spelled wrong) was very good. Overall we loved Whistler and this tour.

Amazing view! Very well organized, a shuttle bus takes you from the plane/lake to Whistler center of town, and there is a time to pickup after, if you book round trip. The small plane goes through the snowed mountains, beautiful! The pilots were very professional and the ride very smooth. The first pilot even pointed out for us to see some interesting locations, and he even pointed out a mountain goat! Great ride!

Luke was a great host! I loved our smaller van so we got to know everyone which was great and the sights were amazing! The only thing I would say is it would have been easy to do an add on of buying the peak to peak bought prior at Whistler either by the company or at least told to purchase prior to coming. The line we were in was long at Whistler. I would not wait for the glass gondola as it for us was not worth the wait - it was better if we had just done the regular gondola to get more time in the snow! Shannon Falls was beautiful! Luke was great b/c he even said if your going to be late call me..and that was not what we got with anybody else. So thank you so much Luke!!

This was the final tour of my holiday. My previous tours had been with LandSea Tours and I found their tour guides to be a bit more engaging than this tour company. In saying that, the tour was great and Shannon Falls and Whistler were breathtaking. My biggest tip is that you will get the option of doing a gondola ride near Shannon Falls or wait until Whistler - PLEASE wait until Whistler, it's a little more expensive but the Peak To Peak gondola ride is magnificent. I did my tour in late May so ski season had just stopped. p.s. Make sure you bring your own water, there was not enough on the bus for everyone even though it was to be included.
