The perfect place to start and end your family adventure, Vancouver is one of the most liveable cities in the world - and for good reason. Easy to navigate and with an endless array of activities to entertain young and old all year round, we promise you won't want to leave! For outdoor lovers, Stanley Park is a must-visit to picnic, play or take a stroll, and no trip here would be complete without dipping into the bustling markets of Granville Island. Vancouver is the perfect launchpad for the rest of Western Canada.

Day 1 – Arrive in Vancouver

On arrival into this vibrant city, you’ll be greeted and driven straight to your downtown hotel – a home away from home, and conveniently located in the heart of the heart of the city, close to Robson Street and Stanley Park. The rest of the day is set aside for you and your family to settle into your new surroundings, and with the waterfront just a short stroll away, you have the perfect spot for a bite to eat.

Day 2-3 – Stanley Park cycling tour & free time

Today, it’s time to indulge in all of the delights that this city holds! The choice of things to do is endless, with attractions and activities to interest all ages. To get you started, a local guide will whisk you off on a bike ride around Stanley Park – along the scenic sea wall, past the First Nations Totem Poles, and you can even stop for a ride on the miniature train. If a bike ride isn’t your thing, we can organise different experiences in the city for your family – just have a chat with your Travel Specialist.

After your cycle tour comes to an end, the rest of your time in Vancouver is free to explore independently. There’s no better way to get around than by hopping on and off an old-fashioned trolley bus, taking in the best of the city and offering great flexibility. We highly recommend taking a tugboat over to the artistic Granville Island too – a jumble of markets, studios and cafes which also plays host to a number of family-friendly events. The Kids Market is a real highlight!

Day 4 – Depart Vancouver

After an action-packed few days, it’ll either be time to say goodbye and head to the airport for your flight home or prepare to embark on the next leg of your family adventure. Having picked up your hire car, you’ll either be crossing over to Vancouver Island in search of bears and whales, or heading inland in search of the soaring mountains and glacial lakes of Banff– the choice is yours!
