SCENIC TOUR

Our best tour for timid first time riders

Your tour guide will lead you on wide, groomed trails to take in the sights of Whistler’s backcountry. This 2-hour tour is ideal for beginners as it goes at a slow, learning pace. You’ll also have time to stop for a hot drink and snack while snapping photos of the whole family. If you have never been on a snowmobile before but have experience riding jet-skis, ATVs or motorbikes, check out our 2 hour Wilderness Tour.
