This tour will allow tourists to see the city of Vancouver and some of its major attractions in just one day. Tourists can enjoy art, café lattes, culture and Vancouver beautiful nature all in a one day itinerary.
1. Head to Stanley Park in the morning. Take the car and park it near the entrance and walk through the whole park. It is only truly appreciated when you walk through on foot and enjoy seeing the totem poles and lush greenery.
2. Take the family or friend to the Vancouver Aquarium after you have taken a walk through Stanley Park. Situated within the park, you can enjoy Beluga Whales, Pacific dolphins and sea otters.
3. After all the walking and marine life, take a bus ride or your car to Canada Place. You can check out the tourist information centre, bask in the sun on the upper deck of the convention centre. You can overlook the North Coast Mountains and view the rest of the city as well as the cruise lines that come into the Port of Vancouver everyday.
4. Getting hungry? Head to Moxie’s Classic Grill on Robson Street to get a tasty lunch and enjoy some colorful (and rather large) cocktails. Ask for the nachos!
5. If you need to walk off your lunch, then take a walk from Robson street up to Burrard Street and then walk South to English Bay Beach. Walk up the path way where you will see tons of rollerbladers, joggers, walkers and a bunch of furry friends being walked by the Oceanside.
6. For some culture head back to Robson Street and visit the Vancouver Art Gallery. You can sip lattes at Caffe’ Artigiano located at 763 Hornby street and people watch from the patio. You can then do some shopping around the art gallery area by hitting Hudson Bay and Company, the Pacific Centre on Robson or Sears.
7. After a long day and shopping around you can enjoy a classy dinner in Yaletown. Visit the Blue Water Café or the Goldfish Restaurant to enjoy some fine B.C fresh Seafood.
