Fantastic 5.0

The tour was well-organized, the guide was experienced and friendly, they picked us up on time, and we visited many places in Vancouver in one day. The visit to the snow-capped mountains was a highlight.

It was a beautiful road trip on the highway into the mountains, an experience you wouldn't have had without a car. Our tour guide, Alex, was very motivated and even made two extra stops so we could see more places :)
