I’ve picked walking tours that stitch Gastown, Chinatown, and the waterfront into one coherent story. Downtown is flat and compact, so two to three hours covers a lot of ground. Guides here are good on the city’s short, strange history; Vancouver only incorporated in 1886.
Discover the hidden secrets of Vancouver's Gastown neighborhood on the Lost Souls of Gastown Walking Tour - but beware, once you learn the dark history, you'll never see this vibrant area the same way again.
