Very Worthwhile!

5.00I really enjoyed this tour and our guide, Erwin, really brought it to life through use of an iPad to demonstrate where movies were shot. Sometimes you’re standing in the middle of where a scene is. Erwin’s humour and knowledge of the industry also contributed to making this a very worthwhile activity!
Excellent Guide and a Wonderful Experience

5.00The guide did a fantastic job. She was very knowledgeable and always took the time to answer my questions about the filming locations of the movies and TV series. If she wasn't completely sure whether a scene had been filmed at a particular location, she took the time to check and find out for me. As a big Hillary fan, I really appreciated her insights. Thank you very much for the wonderful experience!
Very entertaining

GREAT WAY TO LEARN ABOUT MY OWN CITY AND HOLLYWOOD NORTH

5.00Erwin was such a great tour guide! He gave us so many stories and tips not only about Hollywood North but also as an actor himself. It's a good tour for those looking to get into the industry as well. Walking did not feel tiring because we had enough rest/stops, but also the tour itself was fun! Would love to take the other tours as well
Super fun and interesting

5.00This Hollywood North tour was super interesting, with real examples of buildings and sites from TV and movies, plus clips from the productions so we could see how they "transformed" the site for the screen. It also had some really cool architectural and historical info.
Very knowledgeable Guide

4.00If you are interested in how movies/TV shows are made, this is the tour for you. Great tour guide. Stops on the tour were places where scenes had been filmed. He would then play the scene on his iPad and explain some of the technical aspects. Very cool. Only negative was that the washroom break at the library didn't really have any snack/food options. The tour is over 3 hours so I should have brought some snacks.

5.00Rebecca was a knowledgeable and engaging guide, who taught us a lot about the film and TV industry here, and about places in downtown Vancouver. The three hours flew by. Participants should be prepared to do some walking. I would recommend bringing snacks and water.
Great for fans of TV series and movie

5.00I visited with Ryan and another guide (sorry I don't have the name anymore). They walked us around Vancouver to show us the great outdoors where ultra-famous series and films were shot. It was very interesting to understand the amount of work that goes into just a few scenes. And also understand the magic of editing. They gave us a little bonus by taking us to the Marina Building. We exchange very easily and especially for people who do not master English well it is super understandable, they make a lot of effort for everyone to understand.
