Ski at Whistler Blackcomb

Whistler Blackcomb
Whistler Blackcomb is considered one of North America’s premier mountain resorts—for good reason. A short, scenic 125-kilometre (78-mile) drive from Vancouver, this resort offers exceptional hospitality, a diverse cultural scene, and dramatic scenery. Two mountains, connected by the record-breaking PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola, offer more than 200 marked runs, 16 alpine bowls, and three glaciers. Epic skiing, combined with a glamorous après scene and endless off-mountain activities, make this an unforgettable ski vacation.

- Aug 20, 2019: “A must see! From downtown Burrard, we got onto a shuttle bus with Whistler rides for roughly 25 each return ...approx 2 hour journey. Times can be arranged via the schedule offered. Breathtaking views throughout the journey there and the views from the mountains on this very famous ski resort leave you in awe. A must see! ” 0

My daughter, aged 10 enjoyed every minute- especially the rapport with Geoff. Thank you for an amazing afternoon” 2
