Don't spend your entire trip behind a camera. Definitely put it down and just experience! The Ranger at the Sitka Totem Park had great advice, experience with all senses. Make sure you don't just see it all, take a moment to listen, touch, smell and taste all of Alaska.
Take a day and recommend two for Vancouver. The Trolley tour is great. Also spend time in Stanley park as it is very beautiful and lots to do with kids. We rented bikes and had a blast. Also go see Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain. Free rides from Canada Place to both. Gastown was fun to walk around to shop and eat.
Interested in the free rides to Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain from Canada Place....where in Canada Place did you get these and what was the name of the transport???
Thanks for all the info
Directly outside the Pan Paficic you can't miss it.
In the pavement / sidewalk between the Pan and the road, there is a type of booth there, it had a sign for fly over Canada there, that's what to aim for.
Thanks
That's what I am debating: Tour or bus it over and wander?Enjoy it, it's a awesome cruise to Alaska, we did Callipino and Grouse on a tour, both well worth it.

We did both on our own. We bought our tickets outside Canada Place. We took the free Capilano shuttle to the bridge. We then took the city bus to Grouse Mountain from Capilano (bus stops right across the street). We took the free shuttle from Grouse Mountain back to Canada Place. It took 5-6 hours to see both sights.
What did you see and do there?
For the city bus, do you buy tickets somewhere? Cash? Cost?
