During our babymoon to Whistler, we wanted to do some lake activities but thought kayaking would be…read moretoo strenuous for me. So we found Backroads, which offers pedal boating, which was the perfect activity. At $110/hour, it's more expensive than taking a kayak or a canoe (which I believe is $99) and doesn't seem as popular (there were only 2-3 pedal boats). We got there on a Friday at around 10:30 in the morning and it seems the most popular option was the kayak. But pedal boating was perfect for us. First, you go to the kiosk and put down a credit card. Then, you head over to a shed to pick up your life jacket, and depending on which boat you're taking, the crew will let you know the instructions and where to go. We took the boat for about an hour, which was enough time for us to go around the lake with some breaks in between. When you're done, you row back to where you launched, return your life jacket, and go close out the bill. Overall, it was kind of pricey but it was a fun experience being out on Lake Alta. Tip - no parking lot. There's only residential street parking, which wasn't plenty but we were still able to nab a spot at that hour. Bathrooms are actual stalled bathrooms and are pretty clean.

Terrible experience with this agency. They have a monopoly on the lake so can't do much…read more Fundamentally they claim policies and double charge you on your credit card. The staff is untrained and not really engaged in providing instructions. Would avoid them on the next visit.

Via trip advisor i booked a elaho squamish rafting tour (8hrs) at wedge rafting. Out of 8 hours,…read moreonly 3 hours are spend in the raft. Rest is for the commute and eating(bbq and snacks). What i liked: - impressive nature - nice, friendly guides, who also share more about nature - overall well run - well stocked lunch What can be improved: - upfront communication with those who book via viator. I had to chase myself to get details - at the start we need to sign a waiver form, which also allowed wedge rafting the right yo make pictures of participants for commercial purposes. According to reception, only if this is signed, are participants allowed to raft. It feels like privacy legislation is less strict in canada... Some tips: - it is cheaper to book when you are whistler than via viator, if you are in europe - some neopreen socks may be nice if you quickly get cold feet (i had taken along mine) -

Provide a company could provide the essentials, the experience is already going to be great. However, Pedals and Paddles don't simple rest on the fact that they're situated at a great spot. They provided excellent service by quickly replying to my phone call, providing flexibility, offering things at no extra cost such as crocks (so as not to get your own footwear wet), among other things. Lots of equipment available and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had limited time in our day to return to the ferry and they even charged a half hour rate rather than a full hour which I don't think many others would do.

Weird that this place isn't mentioned anywhere on Yelp. Regardless, this my review of the vendor…read more After zip lining earlier in the morning by Blackcomb, we drove over to Alta Lake for our canoe rental. We researched this prior to our trip out to Vancouver and Whistler and this did not disappoint. The ambiance is so mellow, it was mainly younger families who were picnicking on the grounds with their wee little ones, as the younger and non-children adults were mainly in the water in various activities: swimming, boating, paddle-boarding, kayaking, canoeing. We made a reservation to the the latter of all the options. You're given a 10 mins introduction to the map of your self-guided tour as well as what to expect. After that, you're ready to go. FYI: those canoe's are heavy has hell, so better have some arm muscles as you will be carrying it on and off the waters at some part of the self-guided tour. The trip starts off with you paddling through Alta lake, where you'll see gorgeous lakeside homes along with various boating and SUPs to kayakers everywhere. You'll get views of Whistler and Blackcomb mountain, which makes for great shots. At times, it got a little congested, but it was fine. From the lake it turns into a stream which results in ~2.5-3 hours in your vessel floating or rowing through valley wetlands. What you are not informed about is the RIDICULOUS amount of mosquitoes on the water. I'm prone to get mosquitoes bites... prior to the trip, had zero bites; after this, I had easily over a dozen!!!! No joke! After you're done, there's a free shuttle that picks up you and your rental and returns you to the starting line. Everyone's professional and prompt in helping you load the boat, and customer service was great. Would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for me leaving with all my mosquito bites. Hope I didn't catch malaria!
