The coach will then wind its way past English Bay and False Creek before reaching Queen Elizabeth Park and the highest point of the city.  Take a chance to stroll along the gardens and snap breathtaking panoramic view of the city.

Afterwards you will pass along the busy streets of colourful Chinatown, the second largest Chinatown in North America. Our final visit is Gastown, the oldest area of Vancouver. There, you may capture the famous steam clock and stroll the numerous art galleries and souvenirs shops.

One of Vancouver's most iconic and thrilling sites, Capilano Suspension Bridge is breathtakingly suspended 450 feet across and 230 feet above the Capilano River. But crossing the bridge isn't the only excitement you can expect.

Life sized photomurals and "voices from the past" chronicle the early history of the bridge and the development of Vancouver in the Story Centre. Watch as First Nations legends are chiseled into cedar and shared with guests at the Big House Cultural Centre. Cross over to discover the flora and fauna of the West Coast rainforest. The Living Forest provides panels with interactive displays and fun facts. Get a close encounter with the very heart of the forest with the award-winning Treetops adventure, series of suspended foot bridges anchored between trees up to 100 feet above the forest floor.
