Vancouver Bike Tours

There are many ways to enjoy discovering Vancouver, but one of the best is by bike, allowing you to explore the city and its various highlights at your own pace. You can hire bikes and self-guide or join a guided tour where a local guide will share insights about Vancouver’s history, culture, and landmarks. For an extra boost, you can even hop on an e-bike to help tackle the occasional hill (though there aren’t many in the city). Whether it’s cycling through Stanley Park with a coffee in hand or stopping at Granville Island for a bite to eat, there’s a cycle tour to suit every type of traveller.

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park

The Capilano Suspension Bridge is an iconic structure stretching 137 metres across the Capilano River in North Vancouver. At 70 metres high, the bridge offers stunning views of the surrounding rainforest, but it’s just one part of this award-winning attraction. The entire park is a haven for nature lovers, featuring seven suspension bridges that allow visitors to walk amongst the towering evergreens, as well as trails that weave around the forest floor, offering a more grounded perspective. One of the park’s standout features is the Cliff walk, a 215-metre-long walkway that clings dramatically to the edge of Capilano Canyon, providing a thrilling bird's-eye view of the river below. The park also celebrates the rich heritage of First Nations culture at Kia'palano, a cultural centre where visitors can hear traditional stories, watch arts and crafts demonstrations, and admire the impressive collection of totem poles standing proudly among the trees. For those keen to learn more about the local environment, guided eco-walks are available, led by knowledgeable guides who share insights into the flora, fauna, and history of the area. Adding to the park’s charm is live seasonal musical entertainment, creating an engaging and family-friendly atmosphere. Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is conveniently located less than two kilometres from downtown Vancouver, and a complimentary shuttle service operates year-round, making it easy to access this unforgettable destination.

The Canadian

The Canadian is VIA Rail’s flagship train, offering an epic journey from Toronto to Vancouver (or vice versa) that traverses some of Canada’s most iconic landscapes. The route passes through the northern Ontario lakelands, the vast Saskatchewan prairies, the dramatic Canadian Rockies, and the river valleys of interior British Columbia. The entire journey takes five days and is best suited for dedicated train enthusiasts—while some sections offer breathtaking scenery, others see little change, and there are faster ways to cross these immense distances. For those who prefer a shorter and equally scenic experience, the section between Jasper and Vancouver is a fantastic way to enjoy VIA Rail’s excellent service. This leg of the journey, taking around 20 hours, offers an incredible alternative to the Rocky Mountaineer, showcasing diverse and spectacular landscapes as you travel from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Coast. Sleeper Class provides travellers with a private cabin featuring comfortable seating during the day that converts into upper and lower berth beds overnight. Each cabin includes a washroom and toilet, while shared shower facilities are available in each sleeper carriage. Travellers in Sleeper Class also enjoy access to the Park and Skyline carriages, which feature a glass-domed roof for stunning panoramic views. All freshly prepared meals are included, offering a truly relaxing and comfortable way to travel. For families, larger cabins accommodating up to four passengers are available.

FlyOver Canada

For an introduction to Canada, FlyOver Canada offers a state-of-the-art experience, taking you on a virtual journey across the country from west to east. With stunning cinematography and immersive effects such as wind, scents, and mist, the moving platform creates the sensation of flying over Canada's diverse landscapes, from towering mountains to sparkling coastlines. Please note that while FlyOver Canada is a relatively gentle experience, it may not be suitable for those with a fear of heights, heart conditions, photosensitivity, or epilepsy due to the visuals and motion effects.
