This was my husband's second time doing this hike with Nafees as he was so impressed with him as a guide when he first did it two years ago, so when we were planning a vacation to Vancouver with some friends, he wanted us to have the great experience that he had had. Nafees did not disappoint. From ensuring that we were prepared with everything we needed to know ahead of time and what to bring with us the day of, Nafees's communication was great. Picked us up from our Airbnb, took us to get food to take on the hike as we ate lunch at the top, was a wealth of interesting information about the history of the area, which made the drive to and from Vancouver fly by, and on the hike itself he gave great tips on how to best approach the various stages of the hike as well as tips on taking amazing pictures. I can't say enough about how gorgeous and impressive the views were, and because of Nafees's detailed knowledge of this hike, he made sure that we didn't miss a singe amazing site or view, and took lots of pictures of us along the way.
We are not inexperienced with hiking, but have found that having a guide for more challenging hikes almost always makes for an even better experience than doing it on our own. This time was no exception and we were happy to have booked with him. We all very much enjoyed everything about the day, and if we return, will absolutely schedule another hike with Nafees.
