Vancouver Trip Overview
Nestled at the mountains’ base, the North Shore is a treat and a not-to-be-missed day tour. Upon leaving downtown Vancouver, you will travel over Lions Gate Bridge, and land on the North Shore, continuing on to The Shipyards District. Home to the Lonsdale Quay Market, The Polygon Gallery, and Burrard Pier, this area is situated along North Vancouver’s vibrant waterfront offering unobstructed views of Vancouver’s stunning skyline to the south and the soaring North Shore mountains to the north. Next, continue your journey up the mountain to Cleveland Dam, a 91-metre (100 yard) high concrete dam at the head of the Capilano River providing the fresh drinking water for the region. Continue on your journey and arrive at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park to explore this wonderland in nature. Take the heart-quickening walk across this iconic bridge high above the canyon floor and stroll along elevated boardwalks through the temperate West Coast rainforest. Finally, end your tour where it began.
