Pass by without stopping
Porteau Cove Provincial Park
Kick off your adventure with a visit to this coastal treasure nestled between the mountains and the sea. Porteau Cove offers a front-row seat to the deep-blue waters of Howe Sound, BC’s southernmost fjord. Breathe in the fresh ocean air, walk along the pier, and take in panoramic views of snow-capped peaks reflecting on the water. It's a peaceful and photogenic spot that's perfect for a quiet moment before the journey continues — keep an eye out for seals or even orcas in the distance!

Shannon Falls Provincial Park
Next, feel the rush of nature as you stand at the base of Shannon Falls, the third-highest waterfall in British Columbia. Cascading from a staggering 335 meters (1,099 feet), these falls are both powerful and elegant, surrounded by mossy trees and granite cliffs. A short, accessible trail leads you through a lush West Coast rainforest to the perfect viewing platform. The thunder of the water and the mist in the air create a revitalizing experience — a true natural wonder that brings you up close to BC’s raw beauty.
30 minutes here
Sea To Sky Gondola
Prepare for a jaw-dropping ride up the mountainside aboard the Sea to Sky Gondola, where you’ll rise 885 meters (2,900 feet) above sea level in just 10 minutes. Each gondola cabin features floor-to-ceiling windows for maximum views of the surrounding fjords, forests, and mountains. At the top, take your time to explore the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge, panoramic viewing platforms, and alpine trails. The views of Howe Sound, Mount Garibaldi, and the Tantalus Range are nothing short of spectacular — this is a bucket-list-worthy experience that will take your breath away.
90 minutes here · Admission included
Brandywine Falls Provincial Park
Tucked away in a peaceful forest just south of Whistler lies Brandywine Falls, a 70-meter (230-foot) cascade plunging into a deep canyon. The easy walk through old-growth forest leads to a dramatic viewpoint that offers one of the most picture-perfect waterfall scenes in BC. The falls are surrounded by basalt cliffs and framed by wildflowers and greenery in summer. According to local legend, the falls were named after a bet made between two surveyors over a bottle of brandy — adding a touch of history to this natural marvel.
25 minutes here
Whistler
Arriving in Whistler, you’ll discover a world-famous alpine village that blends outdoor adventure with charming mountain culture. Walk through pedestrian-only streets lined with boutique shops, galleries, restaurants, and cafés. Whether you choose to enjoy a leisurely lunch on a sun-soaked patio, visit Olympic Plaza where the 2010 Winter Games took center stage, or simply explore the area’s scenic walking trails, Whistler has something for every type of traveler. It’s lively, vibrant, and framed by rugged mountain peaks — the perfect mid-day stop to explore at your own pace.
90 minutes here
Green Lake Provincial Park
Before the return trip, we’ll visit Green Lake, a hidden gem just outside Whistler. This striking glacial lake is named for its vibrant turquoise hue, a result of rock flour from the surrounding glaciers. Set against a backdrop of towering mountains and quiet forest, Green Lake is a tranquil and stunning photo stop that often goes unnoticed by the typical tourist. It’s a peaceful finale to your scenic journey — and the perfect place to reflect on an unforgettable day of exploration.

Awesome excursions. Leonardo was the best tour guide. He added a stop when we said we saw a whale-a bonus to our trip! We were able to see whales and sea pups. Weather was gorgeous and the scenery was spectacular. Time at each stop was perfect.

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vancouver.
How much does Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour cost?
+
Prices start at $167 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vancouver usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour take?
+
Plan for about 9.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vancouver is not rushed.
Is Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 45 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vancouver, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour?
+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vancouver can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vancouver and add a light layer if any part of the 9.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Whistler+Sea 2 Sky Gondola+Shanon Fall+GreenLake+Porteau CoveTour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vancouver within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vancouver?
+
On Outty we rank every Vancouver experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Grand Bicycle Tour of Vancouver, The Stanley Park Bicycle Tour, Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Capilano Suspension Bridge & Vancouver Lookout. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vancouver?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vancouver?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
