Highlights

A one hour guided tour of beautiful False Creek. Starting close to downtown at our Granville Island ferry dock, this tour sails on our small electric ferries. The ferry quietly passes by floating homes, marinas and parks as we cruise to the Olympic Village and Science World. The ferry also cruises past condos in Yaletown, David Lam Park and Sunset Beach on the way to English Bay before returning to Granville Island. Get your camera ready for beautiful scenery, sea birds and the occasional seal. Our guides will point out some highlights and offer insight into the neighborhood.

About Vancouver

Vancouver sits between mountains and the Pacific, a green, outdoorsy city of seawall walks, forested parks, beaches and diverse neighbourhoods.

Stanley Park, a vast forested peninsula beside downtown, is circled by the seawall, a waterside path loved by walkers and cyclists, and dotted with totem poles at Brockton Point. Granville Island's public market, artisan studios and theatres sit beneath a bridge across False Creek, and Gastown, the oldest neighbourhood, has cobbled streets and its famous steam clock.

Top-ranked sights in Vancouver: Stanley Park, Gastown, Granville Island.
