THINGS TO DO IN VANCOUVER

1. Rent a bike and cycle around Stanley Park 

This is a fantastic budget-friendly option for a warm summer day. It is an approximately 10-km flat, scenic bike ride following Vancouver Seawall, which surrounds Stanley Park. Here is an article about Vancouver Seawall cycling - https://www.destinationvancouver.com/activities/cycling-mountain-biking/cycling-false-creek-seawall/

2. Exploring Granville Island and Vancouver Foodie Tours

Granville Island is a favorite spot for both locals and tourists. It is a unique man-made peninsula that features a large Public Market, numerous artisanal studios, theatres, and restaurants. Here is an article about Granville Island - https://www.destinationvancouver.com/restaurants/flavourhoods/granville-island/

You can get there by walking (1-hr walk from the Convention Centre), taxi/uber ride (15-minutes), or attendees can take an aquabus (it is like a small ferry taxi with numerous stops around downtown core).

Highly recommend booking a 2-hr Granville Island Market Foodie tour. This is definitely a very memorable and very Vancouverite experience!
