Hippie to Hipster - Private Tour

I love living in Vancouver and enjoy sharing local experiences, culture and places that are "off the beaten path". I am also proud to practice sustainable tourism using public transportation and walking to give you an up close local experience! Whether you are visiting as an independent traveller, in a group or attending a conference or meeting I have an option for you! My tours offer unique local experiences, visiting key neighborhoods and providing perspective on why Vancouver is such a liveable city! My interests vary from following lifestyle trends, exploring unique and local experiences to coffee shops and food. I am knowledgeable about BC wine and local craft beer but also very active with hiking, running, biking and swimming. My passions are travel, outdoor activities, health and wellness. I am continually in search of new restaurants, public art, events and places of interest as I enjoy staying on the "pulse" of the city. As an avid traveler I love meeting people from around the world and learning about local culture. Having also lived in various other parts of Canada I am happy to provide you with a broad Canadian perspective and recommendations of other places to visit and explore. I am very familiar with the Okanagan Valley and other parts of BC so happy to share tips if you plan to visit there too. The tours listed are only a sample of what I can offer and I prefer to customize tours based on what you would like to see and do in the time you have available. I also speak English and French. Walking or cycling options are available for some light physical activity or a bit of exercise while seeing the sights. These tours are ideal for taking in the scenery and exploring various neighborhoods while experiencing some of the outdoor activities locals enjoy. Vancouver is a very walkable city! Groups of 2 - 8 people are ideal for walking and public transportation tours, however, I am more than happy to accommodate larger groups as a step on guide if you have your own transportation arranged. Family, corporate and special group tours are welcome. All tours are designed and delivered with your safety in mind. I look forward to meeting you and showing you around!

These environmentally responsible tours show you our walkable city and the great public transportation system we have.
