Top 10 Self-Guided Tours & Rentals in Vancouver, Canada
Vancouver was founded as “Gastown” by an Englishman with a penchant for beer and storytelling. Today Gastown is a historic section of the Canadian metropolis, and the lively pubs still reflect the area’s former status as a sort of community drinking center. The city’s forests, grand parks, and impressive suspension bridge beckon travelers to explore them, as do the city’s shops and museums. Relive the glory of the 2010 Winter Games with visits to Olympic venues and the marvelous Olympic Cauldron.

My husband and I splurged and took the luxury cruise to Victoria and we were treated like royalty! The service, food and drinks were amazing. We spent a fun 6 hours in Victoria on our own and then flew back to Vancouver in a sea plane. I thought I would be scared, but the flight was really cool and the landing was like we landed on a marshmallow. I would highly recommend this company.
