Traverse from the scenic coastline of Howe Sound fjord to the lush, forested peaks of the Coast Mountains. This escape from the city is an ideal way to experience the natural wonders surrounding Vancouver and Whistler. Gaze out over ever-changing landscapes along the breathtaking Sea to Sky Highway, with a stop at Shannon Falls to witness the power of its cascading water.Our next stop is the awe-inspiring Sea to Sky Gondola. After an exciting 10-minute ride to the top of Habrich Ridge, your views change dramatically, rising above the towering canopy of coastal rainforest and upward above Howe Sound and the neighboring mountains. Spend your free time at the top walking the boardwalks, hiking the local trails, taking amazing photos of the sweeping vistas, and don’t miss out on the Summit Lodge for a snack and a little retail therapy.Continue your journey with views of Tantalus Glacier en route to Whistler Resort and its pedestrian-only village. Spend your time exploring the eclectic downtown shops and cafes, hike along nature trails or relax and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Returning to Vancouver, mountains give way to ocean as the coach winds from towering peaks, along rugged coastline, to metropolitan cityscapes.
View the spectacular British Columbia coastline by land and ship, followed by a stop at Butchart Gardens on route to the British inspired city of Victoria. Board a BC Ferries vessel at Tsawwassen terminal for a 90-minute sail through the serene beauty of the Gulf Islands. Marine wildlife sightings from the outdoor ship decks are common, especially eagles, sea lions and whales. Arrive at Swartz Bay terminal on Vancouver Island and continue to the enchanting botanical paradise of Butchart Gardens. Wander through a series of themed gardens, highlighted by the massive Sunken Garden and dancing fountain. The gardens have been designated a National Historic Site of Canada. The City of Victoria boasts many impressive architectural wonders, including the iconic Parliament Buildings and the waterfront Fairmont Empress Hotel. Visit the unique shops and cafes of Government Street and Chinatown. Stroll along the Inner Harbour for prime ocean views and enjoy some free time to take in this culturally significant city. Return on the bus to Vancouver by ferry to conclude this diverse tour or be dropped off at the Victoria - Royal BC Museum - 675 Belleville Street if you are staying in Victoria for the rest of your trip.
Venture into Vancouver's earliest and most gruesome history on this 90-minute walking tour. Follow the lamplight of your guide as you discover the Great Fire, smallpox outbreaks, and the unsolved murder of John Bray. Follow the lamplight of your guide as you discover the terror of a Great Fire that ate up Gastown in minutes, the long-forgotten plague of smallpox, and the unsolved murder of John Bray – a man who wandered the streets for two delirious weeks after being shot three times in the head. Designed for adult audiences, the experience is both a walking tour and a theatre piece. Every story is grounded in documented Vancouver history, taken from the city archives. The plot line is woven together as the tragic tale of one person's life, ending in a dramatic finale in the heart of Gastown's Maple Tree Square. As you travel along cobblestone streets you'll visit our city's oldest hotel - the Victorian, learn the truth about the historic Gastown Steam Clock, see how Vancouver looked before and after the Great Fire, explore notorious Gaoler's Mews, and walk down the back alleys of Water Street to famous Maple Tree Square. Every one of Gastown's must-see sites and landmarks is visited on the walk. Do not expect a ghost tour or conventional walking tour – this experience will pull you so deep into the swirling lamplight and darkened alleys of Gastown’s murky past that you may have difficulty finding your way back out…
Head to the Vancouver airport to fly home and reminisce on your memorable Vancouver experiences.
