Discover Vancouver
Why choose between city sights and snowy slopes when you can have both? Spend two or three nights in Vancouver before or after your Whistler ski holiday and add a little culture, sightseeing and seriously good food to your time away.
With transfers between Vancouver and Whistler included, combining the two couldn’t be easier. Vancouver may be a city, but nature is never far away. Walk across the Capilano Suspension Bridge, browse Granville Island, explore Stanley Park, wander through historic Gastown or cheer on the Vancouver Canucks at an ice hockey game.
Our Ski Specialists can tailor your trip around the dates, duration and hotels that suit you. Just give us a call and we’ll help put it all together.

Sample Vancouver city break itinerary
Day 1:
- Arrive in Vancouver after your ski holiday in Whistler or your flight from the UK.
- Drop your bags off at the hotel and go on a walking exploration of the city. Vancouver is an easily walkable city, taking toughly 35 minutes - 1 hour to get from one side to the other. The public transport is also excellent.
- Head to trendy neighbourhood Gastown and explore eating spots, or see if the Vancouver Canucks are playing an ice hockey game and indulge in Canada's favourite pastime.
Day 2:
- On your second day, head to Canada Place where you'll find FlyOver, a 4D flight simulation ride and fly over the whole of Canada.
- Check out Vancouver's booming craft beer community on an organised Vancouver Brewery Tour.
- Round off the day at Capilano Suspension Bridge's Canyon Lights experience. Serving up lights and heights, the annual event brings the rainforest to life with incredible illuminations.
Day 3:
- Grab breakfast, then get your bearings by heading up to the Vancouver Lookout for a 360-degree view of the city. From here, it's a short walk to downtown Vancouver's main shopping area, the Pacific Centre mall, where you'll find some of North America's best-known brands.
- It's time to strap on your skates and enjoy the ice in the centre of the city. Surrounded by glistening skyscrapers, this unique downtown rink is located just steps from the iconic Vancouver Art Gallery, and best of all, it's completely free to enjoy.
- A short bus ride from downtown Vancouver you'll take a gondola ride up to experience Grouse Mountain's Snowshoe Fondue. You'll have a chance to breathe in the fresh mountain air and enjoy stunning views of the city below as your guide takes you on a tranquil one-hour tour. As night falls, you'll retreat to a cosy wooden chalet when you can hang up your snowshoes and warm up by a roaring fire as you enjoy a three-course fondue dinner.
Day 4:
- Time to visit the foot markets of Granville Island. Breakfast is a little bit of everything today.
- After indulging yourself in too much delicious food, walk or cycle it all off at Stanley Park. View the totem poles and take a stroll by the Seawall.
