Insightful and fun movie tour!
lucygalligan, May 2026
Erwin was an excellent tour guide and provided so many interesting facts about the film industry in Vancouver! He gave visual examples which were incredible, and he was extremely enthusiastic and engaging. Also a great way to see the city and learn more. I really enjoyed it!
An enjoyable walking tour

Rebecca was a knowledgeable and engaging guide, who taught us a lot about the film and TV industry here, and about places in downtown Vancouver. The three hours flew by. Participants should be prepared to do some walking. I would recommend bringing snacks and water.
Great for fans of TV series and movie
Aureylien, May 2026
I visited with Ryan and another guide (sorry I don't have the name anymore). They walked us around Vancouver to show us the great outdoors where ultra-famous series and films were shot. It was very interesting to understand the amount of work that goes into just a few scenes. And also understand the magic of editing. They gave us a little bonus by taking us to the Marina Building. We exchange very easily and especially for people who do not master English well it is super understandable, they make a lot of effort for everyone to understand.

I highly recommend this tour. We had a beautiful day and learned not only movie trivia but also about historical events in Vancouver. The host created a welcoming environment and engaged everyone throughout the tour. This experience is great not only for tourists, but also for locals, especially who are movie buffs.
