The first attraction is Grouse Mountain. Buy a cable car ride pass or hike up the mountain if you're fit! Once you get up to the top, if you've hiked then you can purchase a ticket to ride the cable car down. To hike up is vigorous exercise and requires anywhere from 45 minutes to two hours depending on your pace and physical condition.

There are various other tourist attractions which the family can enjoy including a stroll through historic gastown, the Capilano suspension bridge ( which is on the road to Grouse Mountain ), Science World, Stanley Park Aquarium, and the Greater Vancouver Zoo.
