Vancouver City Tour
Early morning after pick up from designated pick up points, we begin to visit Vancouver City. We first visit world known municipal park on Little Mountain - Queen Elizabeth Park. From the highest point of Vancouver, we can get a panorama view of city center and West/North Vancouver.
We then enter the city center via Cambie Bridge, we will pass through Vancouver’s landmarks like BC Stadium, Science World, and Olympic Village. After that, we will visit Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden in Chinatown. In Gastown, where the streets are paved with old-fashioned red bricks and where the steam clock whistles every hour, we can have a close encounter with one of its kind steam clock of the world. Adjacent to Gastown, it is Canada Place and Vancouver Convention Centre. We will then stroll through Vancouver "Fashion Avenue" - Robson Street, the most bustling street in Vancouver.
We further our trip to Stanley Park – a 404.9 hectares urban park bordering downtown Vancouver. Totem poles and Lions Gate Bridge are the best targets for our digital cameras. Want to take the most spectacular views o Lions Gate Bridge, Burrard Inlet and the North Shore mountains, the highest point in Stanley Park – the Prospect Point is the best lookout place.
Granville Island is considered to be part of downtown along English Bay, and is a must see for all visitors to Vancouver. The heart of Granville Island is the Public Market. Local and imported farm produce, meats, dairy or baked products and much more are available in the market – good place to grab a bite to eat. If time permits after lunch, it is awesome to riding the waves in False Creek.
In the afternoon, we will enjoy the scenery along the coastal road. Coastal Park and the Richmond Olympic Oval (venue of speed skating events of the 2010 Winter Olympics) will also come to sight.
Last but not least, we will visit Steveston Village in Richmond. Public Fish Sales Float as it is officially known, attracts thousands of visitors to buy fresh fish off the boats on weekends. Artisan galleries and one-of-a-kind gift boutiques, antique treasures and quality bric-a-brac are everywhere in Steveston. Pajo's Fish & Chips is the one being highly recommended.
