I rang up on the off chance that I could get a tour the next afternoon as I the afternoon in Vancouver on route back from Whistler. Steve answered the call himself and rescheduled some other business to take myself and 19 yr old son on a walking tour of the city. It was pouring rain and rather a miserable... More

I did the Gastown tour (about 90 minutes) on Saturday, which was led by James. Better than some of the paid walking tours I've done, he provided great local insight, humour, and some excellent dining tips - he is a self-described foodie whose advice I was only too happy to take. The tour is free, but I think if you're... More

We went on the History of Beer tour with Steve of the Tour Guys. It was fantastic! Steve is a professional Tour Guy- he knows his stuff and you can tell he enjoys doing it. We went as a tour of 6 people, lasted 4 hours and we saw 5 breweries/pubs. Not only is this a tour to get to... More

I've been on 2 tours with Tour Guys and they've both been great! The most recent was the Beer Makes History Better tour. Our fabulous guide Jessica guided us around downtown Vancouver as we stopped at various pubs, and she told us about the four P's: Prohibition, Prostitution, Pot, and Protest, as well as other tidbits on Vancouver history. You... More

Last night we toured Vancouver on the Tour Guys' Mystery, Murder and Mayhem walk. We were so impressed. There were no spooky "Would you believe" stories. It was factually based, humourous at times and gave us a slice of the historical underbelly of the city. I will recommend this tour to friends next year (it is seasonal) and my husband... More

We did the downtown and waterfront tour and liked it so much that the next day we signed up for the food cart tour! I still can't that people don't tip after a good... More

We only had a short visit to Vancouver, but our tour with Tour Guys made the most of our brief stay. Steve was knowledgable and entertaining. We got so much more our of our trip because of the tour. We'll definitely book another tour when we return. The tours are free-but don't forget to tip! More

Having visited Vancouver and not having a great knowledge of the City, history and culture. I thought it would be best to do some "tour guide action" I can honestly state that 'Tour Guys' are simply the best! They are rammed with knowledge, humour and wit and always have a smile on their faces! Well done Guys, you will go... More
