Capilano Suspension Bridge and the Cliff Walk is a must. Beautiful views and very pretty. Stanley Park - I will definitely be going back. Hiking at Burnaby Mountain great views and friendly hikers. Looking forward to going back and riding the gondola up Grouse Mountain. It was too overcast during my visit and the snowshoe tour had Avalanche warnings. I am looking forward to my next visit.

The lineup for the free boat show ferry shuttle between Granville Island and BC Place was very long. A very friendly False Creek ferry skipper told us that he would take us along on his boat if we paid the fare, so off we went. He did some tour guide pointouts along the way which made our trip very enjoyable.

There are 2 companies that transport people across and around False Creek (ABC is the other one). We do prefer False Creek Ferries (FCF) because their route is the most extensive and will go to places not served by ABC.

We had a very bad experience today, we are group of 10 and we have 5 kids we bought two way tickets and we asked the driver about the timing he said that the last trip is 8:30 pm and we have to come early because we are big group and we went on science world at 7:15 till 7:50 and the driver didn’t come.
While we were waiting we saw 3 buses from aqua boat company. When they saw us they feel petty for us because it was freezing and the kids were freezing and they offered to give as free drive if your driver didn’t show up.
Then at 7:50 when then driver finally came he was saw rude and he was talking in a very bad way and when we told him that we were waiting for 30 mins freezing he said I don’t care.

This is a very bad way to treat customers especially when he is late for 30 mins in a freezing temperature

This service is overpriced for how long or should i say short the ride is. It seems like they have a monopoly which is why they can charge these prices.

This is a great option - whether using to get from point to point (including Granville Island) or to spend some time appreciating Vancouver from the water. Small ferries mean that you are not going to get over-run with people (and the pilots do not overload the boats) and we had a most relaxing experience seeking Vancouver from a different perspective. Well worth working some time on the ferry into your day.

We used FCF to get to and from Granville Island - convenient, quick and a great way to see the city from the water.

Yes, these really are as small and cute as their photos. A good way to get to Granville whilst enjoying the marina activities along the way

Loved it! Took the short trip from Granville Island to Coopers Park, which is within easy walking distance of BC Place, Rogers Area and Yaletown. Reasonably priced and driver very friendly.
