The pass doesn’t include entrance to Secrets of the Penthouse, or any of our other special events.
Each pass provides you with 1, 2, or 4 tickets to each of our five public walking tours. You can’t attend the same walking tour more than once with your Fan Pass.
For example, if you have our Solo Adventurer Pass, you can’t bring 5 people to one walking tour, or attend the same tour yourself 5 times.
All minors must be accompanied by an adult.
We do not permit guests on the tour who are, or appear to be, intoxicated. Guests who are intoxicated or disorderly will be asked to leave the tour and no refund will be issued.
While the tour is not strenuous, walking is involved and guests will be on their feet for the duration of the tour. Guests are responsible for making sure they are able to complete the tour.
You and your party knowingly and freely assume all the risks with participating in this experience. We are not responsible for illness or injury of guests during a tour. By participating in this experience you release and hold harmless Forbidden Vancouver Walking Tours with respect to any injury, disability, death, or loss or damage to person or property whether caused by the negligence of Forbidden Vancouver Walking Tours or otherwise.
We’re currently only offering one price for each pass. It’s still an incredible deal for both seniors and youth!
We’re unable to offer acredit toward the cost of the pass for walking tours you’ve already attended. Our walking tours are worth taking more than once!
These two walking tours are very similar. The Holiday History & Hot Chocolate Tour is a winter spin on our Downtown Sinners & Sweets Tour. With your pass you can choose between the two tours.
