A Taste of Vancouver

Vancouver is a melting pot of cuisines, and one of the best ways to sample the culinary delights on offer is by joining a guided food tour. Whether it’s gourmet dining in Gastown, savouring the artisanal spirit of Granville Island, or stepping out of North America and into Asia to enjoy a rich tapestry of flavours—from delicate dumplings to abalone buns, Korean barbecue, and mango coconut desserts—there’s something for every palate. Many tours take you behind the scenes, where you’ll learn about the city’s diverse food culture and the passionate chefs and artisans who make it all possible. From trendy eateries to family-run establishments, Vancouver’s culinary scene is as rich in stories as it is in flavours. However you choose to eat and drink your way around this vibrant city, you’ll leave with full stomachs and happy hearts!

Vancouver – Ideas for Free Time

You will never be short of things to do in Vancouver – this is a city that truly has something for everyone. A great starting place is the Vancouver Lookout, which offers panoramic views of downtown Vancouver, Coal Harbour, Stanley Park, and the mountains beyond. Complimentary guided tours are available, and interpretive displays provide insight into the city’s history, infrastructure, and local communities. Nearby at Canada Place, FlyOver Canada is a fascinating 3D attraction that takes you on a magical 25-minute simulated flight across the country and through its seasons. From the waterfront, you can head uphill through the business district to explore the shops and restaurants around Robson Street or take a leisurely stroll along the shore via Coal Harbour to Stanley Park. For those interested in exploring vibrant cultural districts, Gastown, Chinatown, and Yaletown are all within walking distance of downtown. Alternatively, the Vancouver Trolley is a great way to get around the city. From the inner harbour at False Creek, you can catch the ferry across to Granville Island, home to the famous market. It’s the perfect spot to spend several hours browsing beautiful arts and crafts while drooling over the impressive range of gastronomic delights—from American doughnuts to German cheeses, Asian spices to Italian antipasti. Granville Island is also a fantastic place to watch street performers and soak up Vancouver’s unique and vibrant atmosphere.

Whale Watching from Vancouver

Join an exhilarating whale-watching trip aboard either a high-speed Zodiac or a covered boat, departing from South Vancouver at various times of the day. Head into the Strait of Georgia to search for the magnificent whales that feed in these waters. Cruise through the Gulf Islands as a professional guide provides fascinating insights into the area's ecology and the diverse animals that call it home. Depending on the season and conditions, you may spot porpoises, orcas, sea lions, seals, bald eagles, and other seabirds. Whether you choose the thrill of a Zodiac or the comfort of a covered boat, you’ll have opportunities to observe these incredible creatures from either the open-air observation deck or the enclosed seating area.

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.

Stanley Park – Ideas for Free Time

Surrounded by an 8.8-kilometre seawall, Stanley Park is a sprawling green space on the edge of downtown Vancouver, bordered by the ocean and offering magnificent views of the Cypress and Grouse Mountains. Serving as both a recreational area for Vancouver residents and a top tourist attraction, the park has plenty to keep visitors entertained for an afternoon or even longer. For starters, there are over 27 kilometres of walking trails that meander through temperate rainforest and along beautiful beaches. Many of these trails double as cycle lanes, making bike hire an excellent way to explore the park. Stanley Park is home to numerous historical landmarks, including Brockton Point Lighthouse and the iconic First Nations totem poles. Nature lovers can marvel at the 800-year-old hollow cedar tree or the biodiverse Beaver Lake, while art enthusiasts will enjoy discovering sculptures and colourful gardens dotted throughout the park. The park also boasts an impressive aquarium, a large outdoor swimming pool, and several cafés and restaurants tucked among the lush greenery. Wildlife sightings are common here, with bald eagles, bats, raccoons, and squirrels all calling the park home. Add all this together, and it’s easy to see why Stanley Park is considered one of Canada’s greatest urban green spaces.
