Great site especially for walkers.

Published on Oct, 2024

Loved this site. Large pitches, immaculate facilities and great location. One of the most helpful receptions we’ve experience although I have to say they could do with being open longer as we had gone out before they open each day and were closed when we got back. 20 minute walk to Anstruther with a quaint harbour and selection of cheap and mid-range restaurants. Cellaredyke harbour closer and also pretty. 5 minutes to the sea front (steep steps) and coastal path. Buses 10 minutes walk which we used to walk back along the coast path. Lovely! Be aware if you walk back from Kingsbarn that the first couple of miles are along rocky beaches as the farmer and golf course don’t allow walkers. Very nice walk though.

Worth every penny

Published on Oct, 2023

My husband, daughter-in-law, 4 month old grandson, and I went on this tour while in Whistler. We all found it very informative and interesting. The tour guide was named Ryan and he did a wonderful job of explaining the history of the area as well as sharing his knowledge of the Village itself. He made accommodations for the stroller along the way and was welcoming to all the people on the tour making sure to personally visit with everyone. It was a great way to start our trip to the area, so that we could better plan our itineraries for the rest of our stay. I highly recommend this tour.

Great way to start our vacation

Published on Aug, 2023

Ryan was super knowledgeable. The pace of our walking tour was family friendly. Learning all about Whistler at the start of our trip was great. It helped us understand the village layout, history of the town, and maximize our trip.

A great way to start our vacation

Published on Aug, 2023

Ryan kept the walk a family friendly pace and it was super informative. Really a wonderful way to begin our vacation and learn some good options for dining, activities, history, and more from a local with 15+ years of experience within Whistler.

Informative tour

Published on Jul, 2023

Ryan was very knowledgeable of all aspects of the Whistler area. He showed us areas of the town that we would not have found on our own. I would recommend this tour the first day you arrive to get acquainted with the village are.
