Program details
Experience Vancouver’s distinctive flavours and spectacular sights with this five-hour tour of the city, the surrounding rainforests and the Chinatown district. Vancouver offers the outdoors-loving traveller a lush spectacle of natural spaces as the ideal backdrop for exploring this gem of a city. Visit the top attractions and the wonderful woodlands with a tour that weaves in and out of nature and even gives you a taste of the Orient in Canada.
Begin your adventure at famous locations such as Stanley Park, the renowned Robson Street shopping district, Yaletown or even the majestic Olympic Flame Cauldron in Canada Place are all bound to make a lasting impression. Learn about the art and culture of the First Nations, the aboriginal peoples of Canada, whose richly adorned totem poles are a sight to behold. After this cultural sojourn, choose between a picturesque rainforest walk along Vancouver’s North Shore or a towering test of nerves at the Capilano Suspension Bridge. Here you can experience the thrill of walking 70 metres (230ft) above the Capilano River. (Admission is an optional extra.) A visit to watch salmon migrate awaits you where you can witness the rehabilitation project at the Capilano Fish Hatchery.
Travelling back to Vancouver, you will experience its oldest residential area, the West End, which is a dazzling sight; its beaches, a romantic imperative; and its Chinatown, an exotic must. Enter Dr Sun Yat Sen Gardens, a floral and arboreal paradise, and you'll soon feel like you're relaxing far away, far as the Far East.
