18 days in Vancouver Itinerary

Known as "Hollywood North," Vancouver boasts one of the largest film/television industries in the world, second only to Los Angeles and New York.

Yaletown and Deep Cove will appeal to history buffs. Get a sense of the local culture at Granville Island and Vancouver Downtown. Change things up with these side-trips from Vancouver: Whistler (Whistler Blackcomb, Whistler Bungee, &more), George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary (in Delta) and Richmond (Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site, Steveston Heritage Fishing Village, &more). There's still lots to do: add some fun to your beach time Sea Dragon Charters, take in the views from Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, take in the dramatic natural features at Vancouver Seawall, and kick back and relax at Spanish Banks.
