Two-and-a-bit days in Vancouver
 

Hi

Visiting from the UK, been in Whistler for the last week and have from Weds lunchtime until Friday teatime in Vancouver. While I'm told its a lovely city, my Lonely Planet book is a bit short on 'must-dos' and we want to ensure we make the most of the last couple of days of our holiday. Any locals on here with great tips on what to do?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I don't think there are really any "must do's" in Vancouver.
You can probably find a couple of threads on this topic but the big hitters are stuff like:
Granville Island
Stanley Park/Seawall/English Bay
Canada Place/Convention Centre/Jack Poole Plaza

Grouse Mountain (admission fee with activities) sounding not so festive with the lack of snow.
Capilano Suspension Bridge (admission fee with other activities). Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge is free.

Dineout Vancouver and the Push Festival are currently going on.

If you want some strenuous exercise, hike up the Grouse Grind, then take the gondola back.

There are # of places to enjoy afternoon tea. My personal fav is the Hotel Vancouver.

Never mind. Op please check the status of what this person suggests.
