Itinerary
Departure from downtown Vancouver
Snap a postcard-worthy pic of the five white sails of Canada Place flared toward the sky, while learning about the convention center’s construction for Expo ’86.
Catch glimpses of Vancouver’s rich diversity as you cruise down Robson Street, chock-full of shops from high-end retailers to indie boutiques, fine dining to hole-in-the-wall eateries, sports bars to cafes.
Now you are on your way to Stanley Park and its 1,000 acres (400 hectares) of natural oasis. Inside the park, admire nine totem poles at Brockton Point, fabulous examples of First Nation art, and one of the top attractions in British Columbia.
Cross the historic Lions Gate Bridge. It is a suspension bridge that crosses the first narrows of Burrard Inlet and connects the cities of Vancouver and North Vancouver.
The trek along the Capilano Suspension Bridge will afford you an unforgettable perspective. Enjoy activities such as the Cliffwalk and Treektrek and of course the main attraction of the bridge itself! During the months of November, December and January, the bridge and area is decorated with festive lights. Your arrival at the bridge will be later in the afternoon to enjoy the lighted scene!

Anthony (driver / guide) very careful and very good driver in trying conditions and enthusiastic. Anthony talked too much for my taste, it was constant. Way too much talk on China Town and not enough on history of Vancouver. Went to Sranley park, very good but who was Stanley? Trip worth well, far too much time at Granville Market

What a remarkable experience, was terrified crossing the bridge but was so worthwhile when arrived on the other side, beautiful lighting so many things to see , it was fabulous.We even got a certificate of our crossing.
Thank you for the review! Crossing the bridge can definitely be a thrill, but it’s wonderful to hear it was worth it once you made it across. The scenery and lighting really do make it such a memorable experience, and the crossing certificate is a fun keepsake to take home!
Leslie was a very good tour guide. Very knowledgeable of the Vancouver area and provided adequate time at each stop a long the way so we could explore. The suspension bridge was not for me but my husband loved it.
Thank you for the review! Leslie is a knowledgeable guide and does a great job pacing the tour so guests can enjoy each stop. We’re glad your husband loved the suspension bridge, even if it wasn’t quite your thing.
Our travel agent booked this trip for us and it is a very good way to spend 5-6htrs. It was incredibly interesting. We were blessed with a fantastic driver/guide Dave who was very knowledgeable, had a personal story to tell that meshed brilliantly with the tour and was just a nice guy, the sort of ambassador that anyone company would give their right arm for. My wife and I would highly recommend this trip you go to numerous places but still have personal free time at all your stops. Highly recommended!!!!!

Dave is a fantastic guide and we are delighted to hear how his knowledge, storytelling, and warm personality made the tour even more memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back again soon.
What a great afternoon! Alex was quite knowledgeable about the history of the city and able to share this knowledge in an entertaining way. The pace was great, never seemed to be a rush. I guess the snow squall was a bonus. Thanks for the experience
Thank you for the review! Alex is a wonderful guide and we are so glad you enjoyed his knowledge, storytelling, and relaxed pace throughout the afternoon.
