I did this tour myself last year. This time my sister went alone and felt so comfortable with the group and guide. Must do the lift in Whistler. Saw bobsledding. Guide Jennifer said to look for the Beckhams who were skiing there. Also, Very informative and many stops along the way. Highly recommend than other tours for the vehicle, stops, and personal friendly guide.
