Traverse from the scenic coastline of Howe Sound fjord to the lush, forested peaks of the Coast Mountains. This escape from the city is an ideal way to experience the natural wonders surrounding Vancouver and Whistler. Gaze out over ever-changing landscapes along the breathtaking Sea to Sky Highway, with a stop at Shannon Falls to witness the power of its cascading water.
Our next stop is the awe-inspiring Sea to Sky Gondola. After an exciting 10-minute ride to the top of Habrich Ridge, your views change dramatically, rising above the towering canopy of a coastal rainforest and upward above Howe Sound and the neighbouring mountains. Spend your free time at the top walking the boardwalks, hiking the local trails, taking amazing photos of the sweeping vistas and don’t miss out on the Summit Lodge for a snack and a little retail therapy.
Continue your journey with views of Tantalus Glacier on route to Whistler Resort and its pedestrian-only village. Spend your time exploring the eclectic downtown shops and cafes, hike along nature trails, or relax and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Returning to Vancouver, mountains give way to ocean as the coach winds from towering peaks, along rugged coastline, to metropolitan cityscapes.
