Itinerary
Pass by: Departure from downtown Vancouver
Pass by: 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.
Pass by: 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.
Pass by: 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!

Traveler reviews
Anthony is the man!
Anthony was really knowledgeable about all the areas that we went to. He was a great driver and got us everywhere we needed to go fast.
Vancouver sightseeing & Capilano Bridge
Excellent experience taking in all the main Vancouver sights . Tour guide Leslie Mildiner was knowledgeable, friendly and experienced keeping the commentary going throughout the trip . Very worthwhile .
It’s a must do
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.
Enjoyable Day Tour
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.
Fantastic Trip Well Worth It. Our Guide/Driver Dave was fantastic
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!!!!!
