Features

There are millions of sights to behold in Vancouver and they all can be reached via a cruise. But the three destinations which top the list are Vancouver Lookout, Canada Place and the minter Gardens. “Vancouver Lookout” should be your first cruise destination in Vancouver. This place gives you a majestic view of the Vancouver Island and the mountains of the North shore. This is usually the first stop of the tourists because from here they can decide on the places they would like to visit first. After reaching this place via cruise, you have to get tickets to enjoy the fabulous birds eye view of Vancouver. The city appears to be more romantic and mesmerizing at night, so if possible, you should go to the Vancouver Lookout at night. “Canada Place” is, in a way, a landmark of Vancouver. The roof of this building is built in the form of sails. Most of the cruises to Alaska from Vancouver originate from here. This legendary building was devised by the famous Canadian architect Eberhard Zeidler. It is the hub for many social and cultural events like Canada Day, Christmas, sail of the light and other community events. This cruise destination will definitely take your breath away. “Minter Gardens”, in simple words, is splendid. Set behind a river and grand mountain backdrop, Minter Gardens is earth’s paradise. When the dazzling scenery appears before your ship, you have to pinch yourself to make yourself believe that you are actually there. These gardens are something out of a fairy tale and make your Vancouver cruise vacations more memorable.
