English Bay
Details
Widely considered among the biggest highlights of downtown Vancouver, English Bay is a real coastal gem. Your tour takes in attractions including Beach Avenue, the 2009 A-maze-ing Laughter statues and the sandy beaches of English Bay itself. As you explore, enjoy sweeping views out toward the Juan de Fuca Strait and the iconic Vancouver Seawall. During the festive season, be sure to catch the remarkable Christmas Tree Display — a highlight of English Bay’s celebrations.
Stanley Park
Details
Celebrated as Vancouver’s first official green space, Stanley Park compliments the business of the city with an expansive array of forest, field and path known as Stanley Park. Visitors exploring the park will experience life on the Vancouver Seawall where runners, walkers and cyclists all stretch their legs along this barrier protecting the shores from erosion. Stanley Park is a true wonderland of forest attractions including the quaint Teahouse Restaurant, views of the endless Pacific Ocean over sandy shores, even an outdoor summer theatre. You will want to return to visit the iconic Vancouver Aquarium and decipher the stories wandering through the First Nations Totem Poles.
Stanley Park Totem Poles
Details
The Stanley Park Totem Poles at Brockton Point are one of BC’s most visited tourist attractions. These towering monuments are brought to life through First Nations artistry and are one of the most recognizable cultural symbols of Western Canada. Since the 1920s, the Vancouver Parks Board has been collecting intricately carved totem poles from remote locations in BC. Enjoy other First Nations art including “Raven: Spirit of Transformation” which was constructed from a Douglas Fir stump that was left after the 2006 windstorm that devastated Stanley Park.
Lions Gate Bridge
Details
A photographers paradise, the historic Lion’s Gate Bridge is one of Vancouver’s best known landmarks. With stunning views over the Burrard Inlet and the mountains of North Vancouver, you are sure to be inspired by the long history of the bridge and its picture-perfect setting. Famously known for the lion statues that protect the south entrance, travelling the Lion’s Gate during the day provides much to see, but you’ll want to come back at night to witness the sparkling array of thousands of lights donated by the Guiness Family, lending the skyline a recognizable night time glow.
Gastown
Details
For Vancouver’s 19th-century settlers, Gastown is where it all began. This historic neighbourhood boasts cobblestone streets lined with hip boutiques, inviting restaurants and traditional First Nations art galleries — and has been entertaining residents and visitors alike for over a century. During your spin through Gastown, your knowledgeable guide shares insight into the area’s history and contemporary influence.
