Board your mini-coach and tour the famous Sea to Sky Highway along Howe Sound, the southernmost glacial fjord in North America. Feel the spray from British Columbia’s third-highest waterfall, Shannon Falls. Next, it is on to the Sea to Sky Gondola. Board the gondola and ascend 850 metres to the top to soak up the panoramic views. Our tour then continues north to Whistler where you will join a short guided walking tour of Whistler Village (optional). Then there is plenty of free time to explore at your own pace. Visit the shops, stop in an art gallery, or do as the locals do and find the perfect patio along the village stroll for a moment to relax at this stunning mountain resort. Whistler Resort is renowned as an outdoor meca, so feel free to ask your guide about additional activities you can take part in during your free time. When your time in Whistler comes to an end, enjoy the scenic tour back along the Sea to Sky Highway to where your tour began.
