Arrive and Stay in Style
A short trip from Vancouver International Airport, the Whistler experience begins with the journey up the Sea-to-Sky corridor, intertwining through the Coast Mountain range. Whether your group arrives by road or air, multiple luxury transfers are available from the international airport to provide direct, fast and discreet transport.

In Whistler, a variety of luxurious hotels and exclusive rentals can be found, providing that home away from home feel. From condos and chalets with ski-in ski-out access to globally recognized and renowned hotels, all accommodation is centrally located within or close by Whistler’s vibrant, pedestrian-only Village.
Raise the Bar with Unique Winter Experiences
During the winter months, treat your group to the ultimate big mountain experience at Whistler Blackcomb with over 8,100 acres of skiable terrain including 16 alpine bowls, 3 glaciers, world-class terrain parks, and 200+ marked trails. Make the most of this experience with a private group lesson and enjoy priority lift access, exclusive coaching, and access to secret powder stashes all while taking in incredible views.
Finally, take your group to the sky with a private helicopter tour high above BC’s ancient and pristine wilderness. Enjoy the views from above or choose to trek across a 12,000 year old glacier, where you can snowmobile over an ice cap or explore icy labyrinths in secret caves. From skiing and snowboarding untouched terrain to exploring an ice cave by helicopter, unique experiences in Whistler are just about limitless.
Indulge at Altitude
After a day of meetings, whisk away your group by snowcat for an exclusive evening dining experience overlooking all of Whistler. Dip and sip delectable fondue and wine pairings inside the charming Crystal Hut. Alternatively, down below in Whistler Village, explore award-winning venues such as Araxi, Bearfoot Bistro and the Rimrock Café for food paired with wines from deep and extensive cellars. Afterwards, discover Whistler’s many intimate lounges and sip and savor classic cocktails or local craft beer with a little live music on the side; the perfect end to an evening.
Deep Relaxation
Retreat to a Nordic-inspired oasis of calm at the Scandinave Spa. Combining rustic elegance with majestic scenery, the spa creates a tranquil and secluded setting for unwinding and refreshing your group in both mind and body.
