Great info - We have done the Whistler drive from Vancouver many times. It was really nice though to have some extra added information, and info on things/places that we never knew about

A nice little plus to my travel - I used this while travelling by bus between Vancouver and Whistler. I enjoyed commentary, but was not totally captivated by it.
