These guys are the best! They teach us so much and they encourage us to push our boundaries. No matter what season...we ski backcountry with them, we sport climb with them, we explore the Tantalus with them and we ice-climb with them! And above all else with have fun with them!
We have skied with Guillaume and his team for more than 10 years. In that time Coast Mountain Guides has introduced us to some of the best back country ski terrain in the world…right in Whistler’s backyard!
I feel 100% safe putting my family's and I's lives in Guillaume's hands. The team is highly skilled and highly talented and know the mountain better than the back of their hands. Lots of fun and lots of excitement!
I am still smiling thinking back to all the amazing views, friendship and fun. On a separate note, meals prepared by Guillaume and CMGs are just next level. From fresh veggies to wine, I have never been so full of amazing food. You can count on me as a repeat customer for many years to come.
Guillaume‘s attention to detail, safety first approach and passion for providing the best service possible, regardless of conditions, has made our client ski day something that everyone looks forward to!
