The city of Vancouver is not only one of Canada's biggest cities, it is also one of the country's main tourist attractions. It boasts a stunning setting between the water and the mountains, is a haven for both city lovers and people who want to be close to nature, and is famous for its great restaurants and cosmopolitan environment. So while you can certainly fill your time here without booking one of the Vancouver tours that are available, these tours will help you see different aspects of the city and the surrounding area than you might be able to see on your own.

Some of the options for Vancouver tours are pretty spectacular, and even if you are a repeat visitor to this great city you might consider one of them every time you visit. For instance, you can take a boat out into the water and get a look at the local orca whales up close and personal. You can also opt for a look at Vancouver from above, but instead of a helicopter tour it is a seaplane tour - how cool is that? Or if you want to expand your horizons, consider a day-trip to Victoria's Butchart Gardens nearby.

Another popular day-trip alternative among the Vancouver tours is a trip to Whistler, the popular ski town not far from the city. If it is ski season, this can be a great ski side-trip - but even in the summertime, Whistler is a gorgeous town with lots to offer visitors. There are also great tours within the city of Vancouver itself, from hikes through the forests and mountains that overlook downtown to a private sight-seeing tour of the city's highlights.

If you are the more active sort and just plain old hiking does not seem interesting enough, check out the mountain biking tours and even the kayaking tours you can sign up for. And for those of you who prefer to operate on your own schedule, there are a few hop-on/hop-off city tours of Vancouver that will get you from one major tourist attraction to the other but not limit your time at any given sight. You determine just how much time you want to spend at each, and can skip anything you are not interested in.
