Highlights
  • Canada Place - Canada Place is an iconic landmark and venue for world-class events and inspirationally Canadian experiences, located in the heart of Vancouver’s waterfront. Canada Place is home port to the Vancouver-Alaska cruises, and houses Vancouver Convention Centre East, Pan Pacific Hotel, FlyOver Canada, World Trade Centre, and Indigo.

  • Coal Harbour - Despite the fact that Coal Harbour is right downtown, it’s a surprisingly calm little neighbourhood, right on the water’s edge. It’s even more surprising given its industrial history as a former shipyard sitting right next to the railway terminus. The area starts at Canada Place and stretches west to Stanley Park, and is bordered by Burrard Inlet to the north, West Georgia Street to the south. Coal Harbour is a charming mix of business and residential, being home to both the Vancouver Convention Centre as well as condo towers.

  • Chinatown - One of Vancouver’s few distinct cultural historic neighbourhoods, Chinatown appeals to locals, tourists, as well as a growing number of emerging chefs, artists, and small business entrepreneurs. Chinatown offers a wide array of stores, including home furnishings, health and wellness, fashion and attire, grocery, and so much more.

  • Gastown - Gastown is one of Vancouver’s most vibrant and unique areas. As the first downtown core of the city, the neighbourhood has transitioned into a centre of innovation and truly memorable experiences, for locals and tourists alike, while maintaining a strong connection to its history.

  • Steam Clock - Built in 1977, this well-known, antique-style clock is powered by steam & whistles to tell the time.

  • Lions Gate Bridge - The Lions Gate Bridge is an iconic suspension bridge that connects Vancouver to North Vancouver at the entrance to the Port of Vancouver.

  • Stanley Park - Explore the 400-hectare natural West Coast rainforest and enjoy scenic views of water, mountains, sky, and majestic trees along Stanley Park’s famous Seawall.

  • Robson Street - Robson Street was one of the first streets in Vancouver, and was named in honour of John Robson, Premier of British Columbia from 1889-1892. Its commercial traditions date from 1895 when train tracks were laid along Robson Street to Jervis St. A wide variety of small specialized shops sprang up to serve Vancouver’s rapidly growing population, and Robson become a street of best homes and social activities.

  • Vancouver Seawall - Vancouver has the world’s longest uninterrupted waterfront path. The 28 km Seaside Greenway is an uninterrupted pathway, including the Stanley Park Seawall, that extends from the Vancouver Convention Centre to Spanish Banks Park. Perfect for a walk, cycle, or jog, it is the most popular recreational spot in the city.

  • English Bay - English Bay Beach, also called First Beach, located along Beach Ave between Gilford St and Bidwell St, is the most populated beach area in Vancouver’s downtown area. The Stanley Park Seawall, a popular running and biking route, runs along the east side of the beach.

  • False Creek - False Creek is one of Vancouver’s most popular urban areas to explore. Whether on foot, by bike or via a mini ferry boat, there is a lot to do and see in the area. There are parks, tourist attractions, pubs, coffee shops and restaurants at various points along the False Creek Seawall. There are also stunning views of the City of Vancouver in all directions.

  • Brockton Point Lighthouse - The Brockton Point Lighthouse is a popular spot for tourists to take photos. The lighthouse was built in 1914 and is still operational today. It’s located at the eastern end of Stanley Park and offers stunning views of the city and the harbor

  • Granville Island - In the 1970’s, Granville Island began its successful transformation from an industrial wasteland to one of the most beloved public spaces in Vancouver. As Vancouver’s premier artistic and cultural hub, located in an urban, waterfront location and steeped in a rich industrial and maritime heritage, this unique destination attracts millions of visitors each year from Vancouver and around the world.

  • Yaletown - Yaletown was once the Western terminus for the Canadian Pacific Railway, but the area’s more recent reinvention dates back to 1986 when the waterfront along the north of False Creek was host to many of the venues when Vancouver hosted the World’s Fair. Since then that land, along with the warehouse district adjoining it have been transformed into one of the city’s chicest neighbourhoods, filled with residential loft spaces, sidewalk cafes, cool restaurants, unique shopping, and leafy parks. Sitting along the south side of the downtown Vancouver peninsula, Yaletown is bordered by Homer Street, Robson Street and False Creek.

  • Queen Elizabeth Park - Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver’s horticultural jewel, is a major draw for floral display enthusiasts and view-seekers, and as a popular backdrop for wedding photos. At 125 m above sea level, it’s the highest point in Vancouver and makes for spectacular views of the park, city, and mountains on the North Shore.

  • Prospect Point Lookout - Prospect Point is the highest point in Stanley Park and offers panoramic views of the park and the city. It’s a popular spot for tourists to take photos and enjoy the scenery.

  • Girl In A Wetsuit - The Girl in a Wetsuit Statue is a bronze statue located near the Stanley Park Seawall. The statue depicts a woman in a wetsuit sitting on a rock and gazing out at the water. It’s a popular spot for taking photos and enjoying the scenic views.

  • Totem Poles - The totem poles in Stanley Park are one of the park’s most iconic landmarks. There are nine totem poles in the park, each representing a different First Nations tribe. The totem poles were originally created in the 1920s as a way to showcase Indigenous art and culture.

  • Inukshuk - An Inukshuk in Vancouver Canada is an Inuit sculpture used for navigational purposes. It appears as an abstract human form with outstretched arms.

  • Stanley Park Rose Garden - The Rose Garden is a beautiful garden within Stanley Park that features over 3,500 rose bushes. It’s a popular spot for taking photos and enjoying the colorful flowers.

  • A-maze-ing Laughter - As a Halifax native with an affinity to Canada’s coastline, the A-maz-ing Laughter sculptures at English Bay have become a choice destination after relocating to Vancouver. They are a reminder to me to never take life to seriously, and always create room for laughter.

Not worth the money - The car was new and clean. We had a smooth driver. We were only two on this tour (great). We went to all the announced sites BUT ... This Is not a guided tour! On every spot the driver stopped for 10 to 30 minutes (he told us for how long), but we got absolutely NO EXPLINATIONS. In Chinatown we stopped at Millenium Gate but missed the Sun Yat Sen Garden and the Jack Chow building as we weren't told were they were. In Gastown we stopped at the steam clock but didn't see Mapple Tree Square and Gassy Jack. For Stanley Park it was acceptable as on each stop in the park information is locally available. Luckily I had prepared my visit to Vancouver, so, I knew a bit myself to explain to my wife. This is an upgraded cab ride, but absolutely not a guided tour. It is not worth $ 600 !
