The Best of Vancouver: 8 Ways to Spend Your Time in This Metropolitan Paradise

Gastown

This popular nightlife area is the oldest part of the city — the first building erected there was a saloon built in 1867. It was a rough and tumble area of town in those early days, but now it has been transformed into a vibrant hipster neighborhood.

You’ll find plenty of great bars and restaurants featuring live music and a welcoming atmosphere.

Brewery Tours

The craft beer culture in Vancouver is thriving and one of the best things to do at the moment is to enjoy brewery tours. There are tour companies that will drive you around in a van to all the local breweries, so you can have a great day out sampling their delicious offerings.

You’ll get to meet the brewers, learn about how the beer is made, taste the results and take home some bottles for yourself.
