Hi, my name is Sandy and I am a true Canadian! I was born in Northern Ontario and lived in 16 places across Canada from Saint Anne de Mont, Quebec to Brittania Beach, BC. I started guiding over 20 years ago, showcasing Vancouver mainland, Whistler, Vancouver Island and the Okanagan Wine Country. I live in South Surrey, B. C. , and every time I drive into Vancouver, head into the interior, take a ferry to the Island, go skiing or cycling in Whistler, I can hardly wait to get there. I love living on the West Coast! We have the mountains and the ocean! In Vancouver, you can go skiing, cycling and fishing, all on the same day, or relax at Granville Island with a drink in hand at the Sand Bar and people watch! Whatever your wish, I will endeavour to make it happen. I am an enthusiastic, energetic, history buff and love to point out the present as well as the past treasures. All my tours have many stops included. I look forward enthusiastically to giving you your best tour ever! - Past President of the Canadian Tour Guides Association 2015 - Western Canada Delegate for WFTGA (World Federation Tour Guiding Association) 2018-2021 - European Guide 2016/2018 France (Paris, Normandy, Loire Valley WW1, WW2) - Current Red Cross Training 2023 - Certified Tour Guide Licence - Passenger Vehicle Designation PT #75342

I will pick you up in my luxurious Mercedes GLS450 and take you through the most interesting streets of Vancouver, discussing tourism throughout the ages and how we have progressed from a simple sawmill operation to the 3rd most livable city in the world. We will visit the iconic landmarks of the city, such as Chinatown, Gastown, Granville Island, Stanley Park, West End, Kitsilano, Point Grey and Yaletown. We will stop at Prospect Point which offers magnificent views of West Vancouver and where the first traders exchanged goods. During our many stops, there will be plenty of opportunities to take photos, of the story poles in Stanley Park, snack or lunch and shop at Granville Island's public market.
