Vancouver, BC

From the beaches along the ocean to the snow-capped mountains, Vancouver’s natural beauty is legendary. Just take a drive along the Sea-to-Sky Highway, which extends from Downtown Vancouver to the ski town of Whistler, and you’ll understand why this is considered one of the world’s most spectacular drives. Situated along the southwest corner of British Columbia, Vancouver is surrounded by water on three sides.

Discover terrific restaurants and bars on a bar or foodie tour, or cheer on the NHL’s Vancouver Canucks, the Vancouver Warriors, or the BC Lions. If you like a challenge, hike the Grouse Grind to the top of the mountain for truly stunning views. You can take the Grouse Gondola on the return trip down so you can sit back and enjoy the view. If you enjoy natural beauty but don’t want to hike up Grouse Mountain, the Wander Van Dusen Botanical Gardens is truly magical. For those who prefer art, the Vancouver Art Gallery, built in 1906, includes work by prominent Canadian artists.
