Vancouver, BC, Canada, offers a number of top tourist attractions that you can easily visit via foot. Here’s a two hour tour to tackle in a day.
Morning: Start with a sunrise by the Vancouver Convention Centre, ‘Digital Orca’ and ‘the Drop’. In this area, you can also stop by the nearby Tourism Vancouver offices and see options for out-of-town tourism attraction shuttles… but this is a day to stay in the City, so head straight up to the Vancouver Lookout and get an entire view of the City.
Day: Let’s head next to the world-famous Stanley Park and Vancouver Seawall. Take the scenic route to the Vancouver Stanley Park Totem Poles. Rent bikes and cycle around the world’s longest uninterrupted waterfront path to see Siwash Rock and Third Beach or, if you have the energy, do the climb to Prospect Point.

Afternoon: Make your way to Denman and Davie, the ‘Laughing Men’ Statue and English Bay where you can continue to relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of a relaxed Downtown Vancouver. The nearby Inukshuk Statute is another must-see when in BC. If you keep your bikes, you can head over Burrard Bridge to Kits Beach.
Night: Continue down the Seawall to Sunset Beach, then head into town for drinks. You can party it up in Yaletown, Gastown, False Creek, or on Granville Street. If you want something a little more low-key, check out the artists and sports at BC Place, Roger’s Arena, visit the Art Gallery or sneak in a ride at FlyOverCanada.
