2.Hop-on Hop-off Sightseeing Tour with 10 Stops

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 1,807 reviews · 1 - 2 days · from $47

Review of Vancouver’s flexible hop-on hop-off bus tour, with Stanley Park, Granville Island, Gastown, live guides, audio, and walking tours.

“some of the bus stops were over-filled. Our bus was full, so the poor bus driver had to apologize for a full bus and that a follow-up bus would be coming soon! I understand that at peak times, the busses are full and people don't get off when you expect them to exit. I understand that it is a logistic issue and it is hard anticipate what people will do! I give you folks a lot of credit for dealing with crazy tourists who are not always rational people!”

Sing Taylor Swift hits from a Vancouver trolley while seeing Stanley Park, English Bay, Yaletown, Gastown, and downtown landmarks.

“The Taylor Swift Karaoke tour was scheduled to start at 2:30 and go for 2.5 hours finishing at 5 pm. However the tour guide did not respect time and started late and we finished late by over 30 min. He did not respect time nor did he care that we were late. At the last stop he had us wait for several groups of passengers who left the tour and had ubered back at their own cost to get back to hotel for the concert. When issue of timing was brought up he was dismissive and seemed not to care.”
