A perfect tour rain or shine (in our case both) Best value in town since it is free (tip optional but well earned) Plenty of time afterwards to revisited venues and enjoy all Granville Island has to offer. Very personably guide (Matt) who obviously loves the area.

A highlight of my holiday in Vancouver. Lauren was a excellent tour guide. Informative,funny and can even talk walking backwards! We had a 90 minute tour and I am looking forward to going on others when I return to the city. The food cart tour in the summer sounds great.

I did this tour with a friend of mine who has lived in Vancouver for a few years, and we both really enjoyed it. Tour guide was interesting, fun, and engaging, and while the tour went for almost 2 hours, the distance we walked wasn't exhausting, nor were we ever bored. Full of interesting historical facts as well as more... More

The Downtown and Waterfront tour is a great way to see some of Vancouver and learn along the way. Lauren was a great guide - friendly, helpful and knows a lot about the city. I'd definitely recommend this tour!

Our guide, Lauren, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. This was a really interesting (and cheap) way to get an understanding of Vancouver's history and culture.
