Morning light edges the seawall as your small group assembles in a comfortable, air‑conditioned vehicle and eases into Vancouver’s waterfront rhythm. The tour moves from the green spine of Stanley Park—where ancient Western Red Cedars and the lapping Burrard Inlet frame the city—to the cobbled streets of Gastown, its steam clock hissing like a city with stories to tell.
