Vancouver Highlights from Stanley Park to Granville Island

On this tour, we will spend three hours exploring the highlights of Vancouver. Starting at your hotel, we will make our way through Coal Harbour's modern high-rises on the water's edge of Vancouver Harbour on the way to Stanley Park. We will stop to visit the Totem Poles, where I'll share some First Nations history and explain why many Canadians are now calling these "Story Poles." We will make our way around Stanley Park, and through the West End to the scenic English Bay Beach, where we will see the A-Maze-ing Laughter statues and other points of interest.

We will then head to Yaletown to see a neighbourhood transformed from an original industrial rail yard into a vibrant and upscale community.

Time permitting, I will allow for photo stops along the way.

Our final stop is Granville Island, where you will have time to visit the renowned Granville Island Public Market before returning to the coach and back to your hotel.
