What To Expect
Whistler
After a scenic drive along the Sea-to-Sky Highway, arrive in the lively and charming village of Whistler and take an hour break. Enjoy your free time exploring the village full of shops, cafes and outdoor activities.
Joffre Lakes Provincial Park
We continue our journey to Joffre Lakes Provincial Park. We will park at Joffrey Lake Trail Parking lot and take a 8 km out-and-back moderate trail at one of BC’s most beautiful hikes, along the three amazing glacier-fed lakes. From the Lower Joffre Lake we’ll carry on towards the steeper trail to Middle and Upper Joffre Lakes offering stunning views of Matier Glacier (2,783m) and surrounding peaks. This trail offers breathtaking views of mountain peaks, waterfalls, glaciers and picturesque turquoise lakes in the British Columbian mountains. Hiking shoes are required. A day-use passes are required to access Joffre Lakes Provincial Park during peak season and they are free of charge. Please book your tour at least 24 hours in advance, as I need time to secure your day-use pass (available for booking 2 days prior to our visit). Pickup details will be confirmed closer to your tour date. Pickup and drop-off can be arranged in Vancouver or Whistler for your convenience. Thanks Thanks

5.00This was one of the best things I’ve ever done. Joffre Lake was absolutely stunning. It's insanely beautiful and otherworldly. The mountains and snow made it feel so magical. Sinisa was such a kind, knowledgeable guide and took amazing photos for us. I can’t wait to take my kids there when they’re a little older. Thank you so much, Sinisa!

5.00This place is very beautiful. You need a one-day pass to enter in the summer. The hiking trail is not too difficult for those with hiking experience. The guide is very friendly and professional.
Exceeded all expectations

5.00Sinisa was a fantastic guide! I couldn't have asked for more. He exceeded all my expectation. He would respond fast and helped me with a lot of queries before the hike. Without him I dont think i would be able to witness the beauty of Joffrey lakes. He is very informative. He is a gem of a person. I got to know a lot about him and in the end I got a new travel friend who I look up to for inspiration. I would highly recommen him for the best experience!
Very good experience....
