Recommended - Great bike tour of Vancouver. You can see the best places in the city in four hours. Our Guide Cameron told a lot and was very friendly and helpful. If you only have a little time to discover Vancouver, this trip is recommended. Good value for money.

Vancouver City Bike Tour, Stanley Park, Granville Is and Gastown - the tour guide was very good & knew all about the attractions we saw; the bike tour was very good and Stanley Park was especially good to see. Even though it was about 4 hrs the tour covered a lot of territory in Vancouver. Very good value for money.

Great overview of the city-worth the time! - This is a fantastic tour to get a good perspective on the city. Would recommend doing it the first day of your trip to Vancouver as you see all the highlights (and the other interesting areas in between!) Our tour guide Fran did an amazing job of reading the cues from the group and going faster when appropriate and slowing down for photos when we were interested. She provided a great blend of history, culture, and some tidbits on architecture as well. Highly recommend.

Great Bike tour - We had a blast riding around Stanley Park and Vancouver. Andrew had a great knowledge for the area and kept the pace pretty sedate for the slower riders.
