Dear Tourist Awards

Yes, I definitely DID get "Star" treatment in your beautiful city.

My wife and I wish to nominate GEOFF VILJOEN who is a driver for the Star Limousine Company, at 328 Industrial Avenue, Vancouver. (604)685-5600

On the 24th September, Geoff picked us up at the airport, and drove us to the Fairmont hotel. (Wonderful hotel, by the way). My wife has a problem with her left leg, and finds walking, a bit of a challenge. On meeting us, Geoff immediately spotted Doris's walking cane, and went to fetch a wheel chair for her. After wheeling her outside, he INSISTED on pulling the limo right up to the front of the building, after he had to contact someone in the airport to OK this.

After hauling all our luggage to the car, he carefully assisted Doris into the car, and we drove off. Geoff's sincere care and attention to our needs, was unbelievable. We have travelled all over the globe, but NEVER before have we been handled with such genuine courtesy.

Then this chauffeur proceeded to give us a detailed "Tour" along the way. He has a fantastic knowledge of the city, and turned a "usually boring drive", into a fascinating, informative tour of your beautiful city. Geoff single-handedly made our minds up, to return to Vancouver, for the winter Olympics. We just hope that he is still driving, as we would not think of hiring anyone else.

"A Toast" to both Geoff, and beautiful Vancouver.
