Things to Do in Vancouver Before Your Alaska Cruise
Vancouver's Canada Place cruise terminal sits on the downtown waterfront, surrounded by Stanley Park, Gastown, and the North Shore mountains. This is one of the most beautiful embarkation cities in the world, and it's worth arriving at least a day early.
The Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain are the top pre-cruise activities. Stanley Park's seawall is a flat, scenic bike ride or walk. Granville Island Public Market rivals Pike Place for food quality. Floatplane tours over the harbor and mountains offer a preview of the scenery ahead.
