Embark on an unforgettable full-day journey through the Coast Mountains along the world-renowned Sea-to-Sky Highway, one of Canada’s most scenic routes. Dramatic ocean vistas, forested slopes and towering mountain peaks create remarkable scenery from the moment you leave Vancouver.
Feel the power of Shannon Falls before ascending high above Howe Sound on the Sea to Sky Gondola. At the summit, explore alpine trails, cross the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge and take in sweeping views across the fjord, coastline, forests and surrounding mountain ranges.
Continue to world-famous Whistler Village with ample time to explore at your own pace, whether browsing its pedestrian streets and boutiques, discovering local cafés and restaurants, or simply taking in the mountain atmosphere before finishing with a peaceful waterfront pause at Porteau Cove. Designed with a more personal perspective in mind, the journey combines spectacular scenery, outdoor adventure and the authentic mountain culture of British Columbia.
