Visiting Vancouver

Vancouver is a thriving west coast seaport located in British Columbia, Canada. It is surrounded on three sides by water and located alongside the Coast Mountain Range. Vancouver is home to spectacular and breath-taking scenery and a vibrant metropolitan centre. It is the largest city in British Columbia.

Vancouver is a dynamic, multicultural city set in a spectacular natural environment. Vancouver is consistently rated amongst the best cities to visit in the world owing to its ambience, friendliness, culture and sites, restaurants, lodging, and shopping. No matter what time of the year you visit, there are numerous indoor and outdoor activities to please adults, families, couples and friends to no end. The attached Tourism Vancouver Brochure outlines some of the key features that make Vancouver such a desirable city to visit.

Consider just a few reasons why you should plan a trip to Vancouver:

Spectacular & Safe Setting – Majestic mountains, sparkling ocean, rainforests and beautiful foliage throughout all four seasons make Vancouver one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Canadians are known for our friendly nature, and Vancouver’s citizens take great pride in our welcoming, clean, safe streets – day or night, all year round.

Exciting Activities – Catering to any interest throughout the year, you can enjoy world class shopping, gourmet meals, outstanding live entertainment, sporting events, theatre, outdoor adventure, spectacular sights and attractions – it’s all waiting for you in Vancouver.
