    As someone who doesn't ski or snowboard, I never had any desire to go to Whistler. But boy was I surprised with the vibe, and all of the attractions. Whistler CAN be for you even if you're not a winter sports person, or if you're visiting during off season.

    The calmness of the place is sweet for 2 days, not more than this. The food looks delicious and clean.

    Hi Sarah,
    Wonderful video, I don’t think I have seen whistler without snow, how beautiful. I loved all your suggestions, but I do like a gondola to get up nice and high.
    Loved yet another of your videos.

    This place looks so lovely and even without the snow it still has such a ski village look to it. We would both love to go to Whistler skiing but had no idea there was so much to do there without skiing, the nature and waterfalls look beautiful!

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is plenty to do there!! And just like any ski village, it's all fairly expensive... but the scenery is worth it.

    I'm so excited to visit British Columbia some day. It looks so beautiful! Ski hills across North America have done such a great job creating fun summer experiences. I had a ton of fun one summer going to Vail, Colorado - lots of hiking, mountain biking, and a fun village to explore

    • @TheAverageTourist

      It's a beautiful province. I had never been before and I was blown away at how beautiful it is there. Tried to talk my hubby into moving there haha

    Great info! Those fries looked delicious! Always enjoy a gondola 🚠 ride up the mountain. As a non skier it’s still a great way to see a mountain. Those waterfall looked awaking! I love the clouds and the hiking in the second gondola as well. Sea to sky looks like my jam. So many fun adventures to have there! Thank you!

      Yes as someone who doesn't do winter sports I never thought about going here, but there's so much to see and do. 👍

    Steve is in the same boat, I brought him to a ski mountain in Turkey but he doesn't ski so it's really nice to see these resort areas cater to other crowds, especially the sky gondola! Canada has so much more natural beauty than people realize, and sadly I haven't been yet and Steve has only seen Niagara Falls... seems like we have a lot to catch up on.

    My friend and I went to Vancouver many, many years ago and drove up to Whistler. They were filming a German variety show in the village so it was full of Germans. It's funny because both my friend and I have German mothers. We met 3 RCMP and hung out with them for awhile. We also saw a dog agility training event and then went horseback riding. They have a summer luge you can ride too. It's a fun place even in the summer.

    Thanks a lot for all the information. Just wondering where the last covered bridge is? Looking forward to more of your videos...

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe that bridge was on one of the walking paths between the Blackcombe Day lodge and parking lots 1 and 2.

  • @GoTravelOnTheCheap

    Lol, we would likely still get lost a few times too! 😂 Cool covered walking bridge with views of that river! Interesting to read the placard about the culturally modified tree--we have not ever heard of that before. The Olympic Plaza reminds us of the Olympic area in Park City. Wow, impressive waterfall! We experienced a Brandywine Falls in Ohio last October...not as big though. Bet you can't go into that water to fish without waders; seems like it would be really cold! April snowshoes and has tried cross-country skiing, but has never skied...Wayne is a snowboarder though 😎

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wayne - a snowboarder and a motorcycle enthusiast! 😎 Much cooler than us lol. My husband used to snowboard and once upon a time I went skiing, but I prefer to hike the mountains - and maybe not in the winter haha

    The village is so cute! I was really surprised by all of the options for things to do. I would want to try mountain biking. I think I have technically been on a "mountain bike" in my younger years, but I don't think I can say the leisurely riding was anything like actual mountain biking 😆
    I was happy to see Shannon Falls again in this video for the rock climbing 💪

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There is so much to do there - I don't even think we scratched the surface. We will definitely go back one day to see more of the province.
