A great day in Vancouver!

We had an amazing day touring Vancouver with Shannon! She was very knowledgeable about the city and its attractions. The tour was relaxed with plenty of time to take in the different places we visited. We enjoyed wonderful views, shopping and a great lunch. Shannon was so much fun and did not try to rush the day at all. I would recommend this tour for anyone looking for a way to spend a day in Vancouver.
