What To Expect
Stanley Park
We begin our day with Stanley Park for a brief (15 minute) guide narrated tour along Stanley Park Drive aboard our mini-coach/van. Stanley Park is one of Vancouver's most iconic landmarks and includes a variety of the city's most popular tourist attractions including the Brockton Point Totem Poles and the 9 o'clock gun. After touring the north-west section of Stanley Park, we set off for North Vancouver along the Stanley Park Causeway on Highway 99. Your guide will point out the main highlights and provide an informative commentary about the natural and human history along the way.
Lions Gate Bridge
We cross the Lion's Gate Bridge (arguably Vancouver's most iconic and stories piece of human infrastructure) as we make our way to North Vancouver.

5.00What can I say about this experience? For one, I highly recommend it! I bought this tour to challenge myself with the Grouse Grind, but I was also nervous about how well I would accept the challenge. I had no need to worry because with Aramesh as my guide, I was set! He was so attentive, encouraging and patient with me the whole way up. I felt so amazing coming out at the top. That was the best feeling! And throughout the entire day’s worth of activities, he found a way to share interesting tidbits about the area, whether it was discovering more about the local indigenous communities to the beautiful reserve pools or the Vancouver culture. I learned more that day than I ever had on any tour I’ve been on. Please visit Aramesh and the team for this safe and comfortable tour that is challenging and exciting all in one!

5.00Ben was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend booking a tour with him . He is very knowledgeable and provided a lot of interesting information. Ben was very accomodating and just let you go at your own pace. I was lucky enough to have a one on one tour due to others cancelling. Even though it was raining the day I did my hike, I had the most amazing time and enjoyed every minute. Bonus points he even lent me his jacket because I was not prepared for the wet weather.
Not too easy but well worth the trip

5.00This hike requires much strength and fitness because the trail is all the way uphill climbing nearly only stairs and rocks. Once reached the top, the scenery is very good. We have an excellent guide Branden who gave me much support enabling me to accomplish the hike. He also gave a lot of interesting information on other places we visited.
Aramesh is the BEST!

5.00Aramesh was the BEST GUIDE EVER! Extremely friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. The hike was difficult for me, so I was alot slower, but Aramesh was so patient and didn't make me feel bad. We also saw 2 famous hockey players and a movie star, Owen Wilson, on the hike as well! I highly recommend trying out this tour!
