We arrived on a cruise ship with hours to go until our flight. We chose to use the Luxury Private Tour, as we had 6 people with luggage. 3 of us were leaving that night, the other 3 renting a car to go to Victoria. What a wonderful day we had!
Although it was rainy and dreary, our driver Sam, took us to Lynn Canyon suspension bridge. He suggested it, as opposed to Capilano, as it is free and with the weather, there's not much else to do. It was great fun and a beautiful walk. He then took us around Vancouver and took us to the City Market where we were able to find lunch. I think we would have preferred a restaurant, but the market was interesting. (He probably thought we didn't want to spend much money after we all opted for Lynn Canyon!)
After driving us around and showing us a bit of Vancouver, he took us to the Britannia Shipyards National Historical Site - another freebie. What a treat! I would never have thought to go there - but it was the highlight of our day in Vancouver.
He also took us to Burnaby Mountain Park - very interesting. It would be a great place to spend an entire day, if the weather is nice.
He got us to the airport where we dropped off our 3 and took us to the rental car area, where the rest of us were able to get our car.
