Whistler (Canada) Reviews

I took a year out to live in work in Whistler between 2007 and 2008 and feel I can give good 'local' knowledge of the area, the experience and things to do during your stay. For those travelling from the UK, Whistler can be one of the more expensive options for a winter holiday. The Canadian dollar is currently quite strong. ...  Read the complete review

This was the first time we had skied across the pond. We wanted to try the Rockies and chose Canada because, frankly, with the sort of "welcome" we had "enjoyed" when trying to enter its southern neighbour in recent years, we really could do without that sort of hassle.

I recently spent three weeks in Canada. Two of the weeks were spent around Vancouver, and when in Van you simply have to go to Whistler. So we spent a few days in the little resort. Now I don't ski or snowboard, although I did have a go two of the days I was there. But don't think thats all there is to do in Whistler. Yes ...  Read the complete review

I'm a family man so we look for variety (terrain), convenience (ski schools, hotel location, local shops and restaurants etc) and quality service (everything from hotel staff to ...  Read the complete review

Just returned from Whistler. Skied there for the first time after hearing lots of people talk about it as the greatest resort. When I checked this forum last year I was surprised that not more people had written about Whistler. Since then no one else has contributed so I'll now add my bit. We actually did not fly ...  Read the complete review

I’m a native Canadian and used to live in Vancouver, which is under 2 hours by car from Whister/Blackomb Resort. Blackomb is the mountain that is just next to whistler and you can get a lift ticket that is good for both. I prefer the runs on Blackcomb. This is not only a Ski resort, but is also a great place (and ...  Read the complete review
