Vancouver has a rich and varied cultural history and evidence of this can be seen throughout the city. As well as this, however, it also has the advantage of having numerous natural attractions too. The sea and the mountain are two of the city’s major assets when it comes to its popularity and these natural features combined with the man-made attractions consistently attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. From the Victorian buildings in Gastown to whale watching trips along the coast to skiing on nearby Whistler mountain, Vancouver is unique with regard to the diverse amount of attractions it has to offer.
Also in Vancouver’s favour is the fact that it is not a huge city and many of the attractions can be reached on foot. Furthermore, it also has some excellent places where visitors go just to walk. The most popular tour is the Seawall which runs around the edge of Stanley park and continues along False Creek offering an interesting way to see the city while getting your daily dose of exercise. The perfect way to shake off a hangover.
For the less energetic among you there are also numerous hop-on, hop-off bus tours which usually last around two hours and will cost you between $22 and $25. Or, for a really good way to see the city you can always avail of one of the many boat cruises of the harbour which are on offer, one of which consists of a four-hour kayak tour at English Bay.
