Activity itinerary

Waterfront Station
  • 15m
The walking tour begins inside historic Waterfront Station, where many generations have passed through its doors since the early years of Vancouver. Your guide will greet you to begin in a setting befitting of an adventure!
Canada Place
  • 10m
After stopping by the historic Sinclair Centre, site of Vancouver's first commercial buildings, we arrive at Canada Place to discover the multiple connections into Vancouver's - and Canada's - history: the Pacific, culture, food, and the railroads.
The Drop (Pass by)
We pass by the work of a Berlin-based artist who fell in love with Vancouver's rain, and the sculpture that became his "love letter" to Vancouver. "An homage to the power of nature" and represents "the relationship and outlook towards the water that surrounds us"
Olympic Cauldron

Upon entering the Olympic Cauldron, learn about the waterfront in greater detail, and how the 2010 Winter Olympics became catalyst to a permanent plaza, Cauldron, and many current events. Hear about a few surprising insider facts only your guide will know...
Marine Building
  • 10m
We weave by the Marine Building, Vancouver's first skyscraper in the Art-Deco style that once rivalled the Chrysler Building in New York. Learn why it is still today's most lavish and cherished heritage building.
The Vancouver Club
  • 10m
West Hastings Street was once home to a thriving gentlemen's club scene and early entertainment scene for those who came to dress up and play. We stop by and learn how this Club helped shape Vancouverites tastes for socializing and entertaining - and still is to some degree a fancy place to have fun for all.
Artigiano Howe
  • 15m
We do a quick stop at Caffe Artigiano, a local success story, of a second-generation coffee chain started by a local Italian-Canadian family for a coffee break. Note: location may change without notice to Breka Bakery and Cafe two doors down.
Sinclair Centre

We pass-by Sinclair Centre on West Hastings Street, where the guide shares a funny but quirky, personal story that happened inside the building. Learn about why Sinclair Centre is tied to Vancouver's early history, and a current Prime Minister of Canada.

We make way in to Granville Street, hear how it became Vancouver's premier entertainment district, fuelled by early interest in vaudeville and neon...
Gastown
  • 50m
After hearing about Vancouver in its entertainment heydays, we emerge in Gastown, site of the founding of Vancouver and now home to many innovative bars, restaurants, local shops that can't be found elsewhere.
