1.Private Guided Grand City Tour in Vancouver with your luggage

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 147 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $224Our pick

See Vancouver with a private guide such as Ali, Hamed, Navid, or Tima, using a private air-conditioned vehicle that can handle luggage. You’ll visit Granville Island, Stanley Park, Chinatown, Canada Place, North Shore viewpoints, and Horseshoe Bay, with time to customize the route.

“This was an excellent overview of the city of Vancouver. Best taken at the start of your visit to get the lie of the land and to put the city as a whole into context. The best thing was going over The Lion Bridge to suburbs beyond where people really do live, rather than just the tourist sites. Hamed was very friendly and happy to answer all our questions, of which I had many.”

12.Vancouver Private Food Tour – Taste 6+ Local Dishes & Fresh Sushi

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 36 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $140

Walk Gastown with a private English-speaking guide and sample pork sandwich, Scotch egg, taco, sushi, dessert, and a secret dish. You’ll also see the Steam Clock, Vancouver Lookout area, and Olympic Cauldron. Mathieu and Landon are named guides.

“What an experience! We did the private Vancouver food tour with Mathieu, and he was just amazing. He was so knowledgeable, energetic, and passionate about Vancouver history, architecture, and (of course) food. We visited a variety of places and sampled so much: a porchetta sandwich, toffee bar, Scotch egg, CBC taco, sushi, and local chocolate. The tour takes place around the Gastown district, so while there's a bit of walking, it's not overwhelming. Everything is well paced across about 2.5 hours (at least for our private tour option). HIGHLY recommend for anyone wanting to experience a sampler from Vancouver's best eateries!”
