About this experience
Bentley Tours has great reviews on Tripadvisor! Join our Whistler tour for a fun and entertaining journey from one of the most beautiful cities in the world to a world class ski resort. Drive through downtown Vancouver and along the seawall of the 1000 acre Stanley Park, over the Lions Gate Bridge before stopping at the Horseshoe Bay Village, a quaint little town at the entrance of Howe Sound, and the home of the BC ferries terminal.
After we head up the scenic Sea to Sky highway to the beautiful Shannon Falls, where you'll take a short hike to get up close to BC's third tallest waterfall. If you're lucky, you might see some bald eagles as we pass by Brackendale, so have your cameras ready!
