Whistler Sightseeing Tour
Whistler Sightseeing Tour
Whistler is a top-rated year-round destination with endless sightseeing and adventure options. This tour will take our guests off the beaten path to enjoy some hikes and sights less known by visitors but frequented by locals. Enjoy scenic stops along the Sea-to-Sky highway. Upon arrival in Whistler, you will receive a guided tour of Whistler Village. Following this, we highly recommend joining your guide on a walk to discover Lost Lake and/or participate in an optional activity such as bungee jumping with Whistler Bungee, zip trekking with Zip Trek Eco Tours. Another fantastic activity for the less extreme is the Whistler Gondola and Peak 2 Peak, where you will experience breathtaking views, great hiking trails and a new suspension bridge. There is so much to choose from, and we are here to help you plan and optimize your Whistler experience.
