Require a Sightseeing Tour of Vancouver

It is straightforward and inexpensive to explore all Vancouver is offering using public transit.
You will see a lot of wonderful places to explore. Certainly one of Vancouver's major assets is
it's natural westcoast beauty. Fortunately, a lot of Vancouver's SkyTrain line runs on tracks
elevated above the town providing some very nice views, and providing tourists with a price
effective solution to see this wonderful city. This makes exploring Vancouver by rapid transit a
pleasurable experience in addition to a functional way to have around. Although we live within 2
hours of Vancouver, we'd often utilize the SkyTrain and Seabus to take our youngsters for a
pleasurable days outing in Vancouver.

If your accommodations are downtown I would suggest having a ride on the Expo line beginning
at some of Waterfront, Granville or Stadium Station, whichever could be the closet for you
accommodations. Even though the Expo line is just a subway to begin, it quickly ascends above
the town and passes some popular Vancouver landmarks. Watch for Telus World of Science and
the BC Place Stadium once the train climbs above ground. The train travels mostly southeast
along a number of the high areas of Vancouver, providing you some excellent views of the
mountains to the North and the Fraser River Delta to the south. Eventually the SkyTrain will get
you within the world's longest transit only bridge since it passes into Surrey far above the Fraser
River.

There are numerous interesting attractions to have off and explore across the Expo Line
including Stadium - Chinatown Station where you are able to discover Vancouver's Chinatown
combined with Dr. Sun-Yat Sen Classical Chinese Gardens; Main Street - Science World Station
where you are able to spend area of the trip to the Telus World of Science; Patterson Station in
Burnaby where you are able to explore the forested paths of Central Park; Metrotown Station
where you are able to explore countless stores and activities at Metropolis at Metrotown, British
Columbia's largest shopping complex; New Westminster Station where you are able to begin to
see the mixture of old and modern buildings across the waterfront in historic New Westminster
and the New Westminster Quay.

From Waterfront Station at the northwest terminus of the train line you are able to have a ride on
the SeaBus passenger ferry which carries passengers across Burrard Inlet to Lonsdale Quay
Public Market in North Vancouver. Lonsdale Quay provides you with more great views and you
are able to take some time exploring the numerous shops and dining options within the market.
Strive for seats alongside the windows on the Seabus and you will dsicover fabulous views of the
Stanley Park and Vancouver's skyline.

With multiple zones and categories, Vancouver transit fares could be hard to comprehend even
for the neighborhood residents. To keep things easy, I would suggest travellers purchase each
day pass. Carrying each day pass you're all set all day long and into the night time on the whole
transit system without any worries about zones.
