Vancouver City Tour Including Capilano Suspension Bridge
Vancouver, Canada
On this Vancouver tour by comfortable coach, not only will you visit top Vancouver attractions including Stanley Park, Granville Island, Gastown and Chinatown, but you’ll also experience the thrilling, scenic Capilano Suspension Bridge! You'll have time at several attractions to explore on your own by foot, and your guide will provide commentary about the places you visit.
Your half-day Vancouver city tour starts with pickup in the late morning from your downtown Vancouver hotel. Aboard a comfortable coach, travel through Vancouver to Canada Place, Robson Street and Stanley Park, where you’ll stop to view the renowned totem poles.
After crossing the historic Lions Gate Bridge and passing Cleveland Bridge – offering great views of Capilano Lake – make your way to the famous Capilano Suspension Bridge. You’ll enjoy bird’s-eye views of the spectacular canyon and thriving coastal forest as you cross the 450-foot-long (137-meter) bridge. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, do the Cliffwalk, which takes you on a thrilling journey by foot along a series of suspended walkways jutting out from the granite cliff face above the Capilano River! You’ll also have time at this attraction to browse the shops and enjoy lunch (own expense).
Afterward, continue your coach tour to Granville Island for time to explore the public market, marinas, eateries and galleries. Your next highlights are Chinatown – the 2nd-largest in North America – and the historic Gastown district. Depending on the season, you may also visit the Vancouver Lookout for amazing views (Nov-April only).
Throughout your tour, your knowledgeable guide will offer commentary about the sites you see. Your tour concludes with hotel drop-off.
This was so much fun! I wish we had m ore time at the Bridge to dine, but the overall experience was memorable, special and so, so much fun!

Very good tour. Just not enough time. The Capilano attraction is basically an all day or at least half day experience. The same could be said for the Granville Island. Other than that, it was worth the money, and a very good tour. Our driver and tour guide Shelly was personable, friendly and knowledgeable.

Great tour, Mike was really good tour guide. He was very funny and made a trip truly enjoyable. Suspension Bridge was really scarily, but interesting at same time. Also there was other activities that you can spend easily couple hours there. Also city tour was nice also we got to go to Public Market. It was over all 5 hours of tour. very nicely organized. We got to learn about different parts of Vancouver which I would not have able to if I was just in the city and going out by downtown area.

My family like this tour. The tour went through most of the places in Vancouver. Hope the bus could stop more places for taking pictures, For example, Laughing men.
Review by: Carolyn L, March 2018
We loved this tour. We got to see so much more of this beautiful city than we would have on our own. The cost of the tour included entrance fees to go on the bridge, which was an amazing experience. We loved the market. Be sure to bring your appetite.

This is the best way to experience the city of Vancouver.
Review by: Joel S, March 2018
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Gordy was super informative, could barely remember all the information he mentioned - it was that much! The times spent at the spots was pretty adequate, especially if he has to stay on schedule. Highlight for me was the Capilano Suspension Bridge. They may need to devote more time to this since I feel a little rushed at the end especially if you want to sit down and have lunch I recommend the fish and chips with a glass of the Gewurtztraminer.

We really enjoyed the day. Andy is a super fine guide. My only change or addition to the tour would be time to walk around I think it was English Bay, the place with the palm trees and beach. Andy did give us a little extra, time at prospectors point because we were a small group. We saw a lot of the main attractions with time to enjoy them. Two thumbs up from me! P.s. I felt the price was fair for what we saw.

A very efficient way to see the major sights of Vancouver. We really enjoyed the beautiful drive along the Stanley Park seawall. The visit to Capilano Suspension Bridge was epic. The view from the bridge was breathtaking.
Review by: Monique A, January 2018
November was the perfect timing for this tour as the Suspension Bridge was not overly busy. Our guide was wonderful and it was definitely one of the best decisions for a short stay in Vancouver.

Review by: paulaknighten, November 2017
A great way to get to know the city without the stress. We were shown a lot of the key spots of Vancouver and the history. The tour was done very efficiently in a nice paste that at no time, we felt being rushed around. We had one of the sunny days in Vancouver.

Driver was very good very informative down to earth at Suspension Bridge _br/_ My husband did the Bridge But it was moving to much for me to make it
Review by: Debra D, November 2017
Good way to see the city for the first time. The Capilano Suspension Bridge was awesome.

Very Good
Review by: Joe Y, October 2017
This was a weekend city tour. The trip was rushed. We were taking our grandson on a cruise from Canada Place and this was a repeat for us of the city tour to give him a taste of Vancouver. The driver was average. The biggest problem was he did not manage stop times very well so we ended up being very rushed at capilano bridge park. This should have been the highlight of the tour for our grandson but we only had time to do the bridge and not the glass walk or the tree tops. Otherwise good tour. Very dependent on your driver. Also spent time meeting other buses to consolidate pickups and spent time at the end doing the same for drop offs. Time could have been better spent on the tour.
Review by: David G, October 2017
This was a great tour with time to visit Stanley Park and adequate time at the suspension bridge. It was exciting walking accross the bridge several hundred feet over river with the bridge swaying the whole time. The tour guide was excellent and really knew the area. We had absolutely no complaints and would reccomend this tour to anyone.
Review by: Debra S, October 2017
Great half day tour! Don't miss the Capilano Suspension Bridge - this was fabulous. You can climb the tree tops in an actual rain forest.
Review by: Alfred C, October 2017
Fun tour. We enjoyed Granville Island.
Review by: Tanty S, October 2017
Good
Review by: Edward E, October 2017
This was a great tour. Our tour guide Herman was outstanding by pointing out little-known landmarks and telling us entertaining stories. He is a native of Vancouver, so he really knew the history and lore of the city. The Capilano bridge is amazing, even though lots of people are walking on it at once. I'm not a fan of heights, but this bridge didn't scare me at all because it feels sturdy under your feet. Make sure to do the tree-walk when you're on the other side. Touching an 800-year old tree is pretty amazing. Also, unless you want to pay handsomely for food, bring some snacks along with you on the tour.
Review by: lynn.polkey, October 2017
Brilliant tour, with lots to do off and on bus to experience everything that we saw. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend that if you're wondering whether to book or not, just book it now - well worth the money. I can't recommend our tour guide - Dave - highly enough. He totally made the trip. Whatever he's being paid it should be double!
Review by: William M, October 2017
We got a close-up view of the highlights of Vancouver in only a few hours that fit into our crowded weekend plans.
Review by: marissa.laspina, October 2017
Great tour! Highly recommend. Herman our driver was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Capilano bridge was fun and the stop off to Canada place, Stanley park and capilano river were great!

Great tour...worth it.
Review by: Michael D, October 2017
This was the worst tour I have ever been on. Tour guide drove around town without introducing himself. I won't waste your money on this.
Review by: Mala B, October 2017
Its a must do,,,,totally amazing,,,
Review by: Sandra C, October 2017
Took this tour on our first full day in Vancouver which gave us a great idea of the layout of the City and the trip to the Suspension Bridge was fantastic but it would have been nice to have a little more time there to be able to do all the walks. Guide was very informative and gave us a lot of useful information.
Review by: Bolie, October 2017
This was a great way to be introduced to the beautiful Vancouver. The guide was knowledgeable and _br/_ it was a very enjoyable day. Highly recommended.
Review by: Carol S, September 2017
We chose this tour because we only had 1 full day to spend in the area. However, it would also be perfect for anyone who wants to get a view of the city before exploring on their own. Our tour guide, Mike, was super. We learned so much about the area. We enjoyed every aspect of the tour, however the Capilano Suspension Bridge was the highlight for us. Its so much more than the bridge. A must see.
Review by: Dar, September 2017
The tour stops were good. Especially loved the Capilano Suspension Bridge. However, our tour guide was a little off for the day. This was not her normal tour. She usually is in the Columbia River Gorge. But the wild fires changed her daily schedule. She did her best to make our tour interesting but we felt she was not as familiar with the area as we have had on other Viator tours.
Review by: carrye, September 2017
Outstanding way to familiarize yourself with the city. Tour guide provided excellent commentary and pointers. There was time to explore on your own at Stanley Park, Butchart Gardens and the Capilano Suspension Bridge. Major advantage of tour is priority admittance to popular sites like the Gardens and the Bridge. Highly recommended.
Review by: Thuy Nga N, September 2017
it was Ok ! but For me , the taxi driver and the guide must not me the same person . _br/_ the guide tour needs to follow our visite not only a taxi driver !
Review by: Shayne, April 2017
A great relaxed trip with plenty of time to explore the Capilano complex. Our guide Gordie was very informative and friendly, and nothing was a problem for him. Well worth taking this tour.
Review by: Wendy244, April 2017
Our tour guide was very informative, this tour is one you do not want to miss!!!
Review by: Laurie S, April 2017
We took this tour and we were totally blown away by Jack, our tour guide. He was funny, engaging and you could tell that he really knew and loved this city Vancouver BC. We saw so many things in one day that we would not have been able to see on our own. I would highly recommend this tour as they pick you up and drop you off at your hotel and you avoid all the traffic and parking. I just cannot say enough about Jack - he is absolutely AMAZING!! He gave up a deep insight about the Vancouver culture and the Native Americans that are in that area. It was fascinating and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
Review by: vanessa, February 2017
Loved every minute of this tour. A must do
Review by: Fehmida F, February 2017
Great trip. Lots of stops with sufficient time to explore. Only suggestion may be to start the tour a little earlier during winter season so that we are not touring in the dark!
Review by: Brenda A, January 2017
Great Tour, Interesting and very informational great time.
Review by: shawn l, November 2016
What a great tour! My husband and I normally do not do tours because we like to explore the city by ourselves. However, we were going to be only 4 days in Vancouver. This tour hits the best spots in 5 hours. This allowed us to decided to what parts of the city we wanted to go back and explore some more. Mark was our guide and he is hilarious and knowledgeable. The Capilano is out of this world! Do not miss this experience. Do it. Stanley Park is great but it would be better to spend less time there and more time in Grandville Island. Just our opinion. Other than that, this tour is amazing. We highly recommend it!

A bit pricey for what you get but well structured and a nice guide.
