Guide #30296
Hello, my name is Bobby. I love this beautiful city very much and am always very excited and eager to share the city with friends and visitors. Besides Vancouver, I also provide private guided tours to Victoria, Whistler, and the Canadian Rockies in Alberta. I enjoy travelling and have toured many countries. When visiting new places, I always look forward to experience the local lifestyle; savour the food; learn the culture, tradition, and history, to better understand the place I am visiting. I hit the highlights, the best places of interest the destination has to offer. Then I explore, meet the locals. Come, join me. Let's explore this beautiful city of Vancouver, the Pacific Northwest, and the Canadian Rockies. We'll have fun; explore and learn; and enjoy in style, comfort, and luxury. We'll visit the world renown ski resort of Whistler in the Squamish Lil'wat First Nations Territory, and Victoria, the Garden City on Vancouver Island. For the history buffs, wine lovers, and movie goers, we will visit the Fraser Valley and Fort Langley. To enjoy spectacular highlands, mountains, canyons, turquoise coloured lakes, and wildlife, we'll visit the Canadian Rockies, and play golf too! I acknowledge the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples, including the Xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), and Selí̓lw̓ itulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations where I live, and work. I am a licensed commercial vehicle operator (PTB #75029), holds a chauffeur permit, and am authorized to provide shore excursions to cruise passengers arriving at Vancouver. I have a Class 2 driver's licence, with air brake endorsement. I am a Professional Member of the Canadian Tour Guide Association of BC. Prior to starting out on my own, I was a Driver Tour Guide for a local sightseeing tour company. I enjoyed my job very much, sharing my passion and love for this beautiful city with my guests. My guests enjoyed my tours very much, and feedback was very positive. I was very encouraged, and decided to go to solo. ToursByLocals is my first choice.

Our guide, Bobby, arranged for a low pace, high energy view of Stanley Park, Grouse mountain, Capilano Suspension Bridge, Tree Tops, and the Salmon Hatchery. Bobby kept in contact leading up to our trip and met us in a very large Mercedes Sprinter which gave the five of us with...
