This place was much nicer than we had expected. The bridge was both a little scary and fun to cross, and the beautiful forest on the other side made the crossing worth it. I felt like a kid up in a treehouse and could have stayed in there all day. However, our next stop was Grouse Mountain which offered a fantastic view and a funny Lumberjack Show.

It was a great experience. The visit to the fish hatchery was too fast and we didn't have enough time to learn more about it before being rushed off to Grouse Mountain. Otherwise, a great day and highly recommend it.

Alesso was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the sites he took us to and explained what to expect; what order in which to see each exhibit; how long each exhibit would take, etc. We ran on schedule. As we traveled throughout the city he shared with us the city's history, the cost of living and other facts. We totally enjoyed the tour.

The guide was personable and did a nice job with information about Vancouver. The tour was sold as a 6 hour tour but was actually only 4 1/2 hrs. I liked the freedom of being able to roam at each location rather than being lead around as a group. I'm just slightly ambivalent about the whether the cost of this tour was actually worth it.

We enjoyed spending time on Grouse mountain and exploring the Capilano Bridge area! Noah was an excellent guide! I would personally skip the Salmon Hatchery and would’ve liked more time at the Capilano Bridge!

Grouse Mtn, fish hatchery and the Capilano bridge/cliff walk are truly a great way to spend the day enjoying some of Vancouver's best. That being said...tour company only picks up from certain locales...had to pay 30$ to park at their pick up spot. Tour co. didn't tell us where to meet bus, sat on the wrong side of the hotel before calling to verify. Driver got lost and that took extra time. Driver forgot to put on a/c during one of the legs.

This trio is the perfect amount of time at three sites! The driver was great and we had a good amount of time at each location.

The Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain were terrific destinations but both are easily able to be accessed by free public transportation. Our driver added little to our experience. He could have been a fount of relevant information but instead focussed much of his incessant banter on the delights of fudge and Japodogs. He dropped us off at both places and left us to our own devices. It was good to arrive first thing in the morning -no crowds and easy access.

The walk across was not as bad as expected. It is fun and certainly worth doing. Once across there is the treetop adventure. Nature lovers will definitely love it. After you walk back across the bridge there is the cliff walk that leads to more information and beauty.

Picked up from our hotel dead on time and the friendly guide gave a good commentary up to Capilano which was quite breath-taking. Just sufficient time to do everything before a quick transfer to Grouse Mountain. Due to the timings of the shows, we chose to stay on the mountain long after the guide wanted to leave. This was no problem due to the free courtesy buses available back to the city, but this trip needs to be re-scheduled or made longer to allow good time at each attraction. Overall though, thoroughly recommended.

The city doesn't have uber and you do have a free shuttle service to capilano bridge alone. But if you take this package was ($131), you get a shuttle service and save up money on taxi and avoid the mess to call and book cab corresponding to the region of your stay. Could go up until grouse mountain and our guide Bazzle provided lot of fun information during the trip. On the downside, you don't get to spend a lot of time in both the places. It is reasonable though.

Jason, our guide, was excellent in providing all the info we needed about the trip. Capilano was just a wonderful place to visit. Grouse Mountain was also great providing spectacular views of the city and some nice attractions on the grounds. Best of all, booking this tour included VIP access so you don't have to wait on lines to cross the Capilano Bridge or wait for the gondola at Grouse Mtn. Highly recommend this trip. Just a lovely day

But everytime I get a good guide it is worth the dollars for the experience. Kudos to Aubyn and Alexis for their expert guidance on both tours. Bother we’re knowledgeable of geo, history and logistics. To be a guide you have to be patient, fast on your feet and talk while driving and 10 million other things. I found this in both and a dash of humor.
