Vancouver is renowned for its picturesque beauty, but seeing all the major sights in one trip can be challenging. Take in as much of the city as possible on this ambitious half-day private tour, which will take you to all the most popular tourist locations in a single day. Explore Granville Island’s public markets, stroll around the scenic Stanley Park with 360º views of the city, and admire the suburban beauty of North and West Vancouver, all with detailed guided commentary. Discover all of Vancouver’s most popular tourist sites on this 5-7 hour tour.
Took us to see the tour sites of Vancouver. Provided a couple of options along the way for our group of 10. Lunch (not included) at a Persian restaurant is something we would not have tried on our own but was absolutely delicious. Was very polite, personable, and accommodating (allowing a quick stop at a grocery store). We would certainly book with Hamed again.
Very good tour! Group of 8, very enjoyable, great way to see Vancouver!
This was a fantastic tour. Hamed is super knowledgeable about the history and cultural background of Vancouver. He not only brought us to the tourist spots of Vancouver, we also went to different neighborhoods and areas around Vancouver. One of the highlights was eating at a local restaurant he brought us to. I highly recommend this tour with Hamed.
We enjoyed Hamed's commentary tremendously. He provided insight and context to what we were seeing on our first trip to Vancouver. The van was so comfortable, Hamed arrived early! and had our arrival at the steam clock timed perfectly. One of our group had been in Vancouver on business before but said he had never seen all of the facets of the city before. It was nice to see neighborhood homes and to learn about Vancouver's diversity. We would all recommend Hamed as a thoughtful and very pleasant guide to Vancouver.
Hamed M , our tour guide was informative and provided us with a very comfortable van . Our tour started at 10 am so missed seeing the hustle bustle of China town and Gastown as most shops were closed . He gave us time to walk around on our own , and drove us around most parts of Vancouver . We ate a delicious mean on his suggestion at a Persian restaurant. However , we waited more than half an hour for their special tea and dessert ( which we didn’t order ) and that took away 40 mins from our time . Overall we enjoyed our tour with him
This was our first time visiting Vancouver, it was a family vacation with members flying in from different airports . Hamed was wonderful! He was very friendly, courteous and accommodating. The tour was very enjoyable in a very large and comfortable van that was able to hold all the luggage. Hamed is very knowledgeable and informative, he provided a great overview of the city which was exactly what we were looking for. I strongly recommend him.
