I found the experience exhilarating. We had a very knowledgeable tour guide, a comfortable bus. We spent 2 hours at the capilano bridge which was plenty time to cross the bridge, enjoy events in the park and return to the other side. We also visited the salmon hatchery and Grouse Mountain., The scenery from the top of Grouse Mountain was breathtaking. It was a gorgeous day, and I enjoyed the entire afternoon.

This was the perfect excursion to do for our all day layover after disembarking from a cruise ship and waiting for a late night flight home. The pickup location at the cruise ship terminal was easy. We were greeted by West Coast Tour representatives at the baggage pickup area and then given directions to the Kiosk at street level in front of the terminal. The tour was 12 - 5:45 so we grabbed lunch at the food court across the street before heading out on the tour on a very clean and comfortable Prevost tour bus. We toured highlights around Vancouver as we traveled to the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. There we were allowed about 2 hours to experience the bridge and this beautiful park. After that we traveled to Granville Island where we got to spend about 1 1/2 hours before traveling back through another part of the city back to the ship terminal. Our tour guide, Graeme (pronounced Graham) was very informative and entertaining throughout the entire tour.

Vancouver has a lot of interesting sites to see, but our guide spent too much time talking about nonrelated subjects, instead of focusing on telling us about what we were seeing. Need more time to see it all or reduce to a more “highlights” tour and separate the bridge into a tour by itself.
