Things To NOT do in Vancouver for Tourists

Vancouver is a very popular city in British Columbia Canada, and tourism is among the biggest industries of the city. When you’re visiting a place, you should comply with the city’s set of own rules and regulations. There are always some things that one should consider not doing in front of native people. Although there is no such “heavy regulation” for tourism in the city, there are still some keen important tips that you should consider.

Visit Granville Island empty-handed

Granville Island is a famous tourist attraction place in the country. Although the market is filled with sweet treats and meals, you should never visit the Island empty-handed. Always pack some extra food with yourself, because the distance to the island takes some time. Also, not all of us enjoy lunchtime when they are exploring.

Don’t only stick to Downtown

Vancouver is filled with a lot of hidden areas and places that one should consider. The most traveling guide just sticks you with the Downtown area. Don’t stick solely in one place, visit other islands and parks. There’s a lot you can cover in one day.

Don’t Waste a Rainy Day

Most people will tell you to stay in-door when it’s raining. We believe that it’s the perfect day to check some Must Visit Historical Sites in Vancouver such as the Museum of Anthropology or the Science World.

Don’t think Vancouver is an only outdoor retreat

A lot of people think that Vancouver is only beautiful in terms of natural beauty. In fact, it is as beautiful as it is from the inside as from the outside. There are a vast majority of things available in the city. This includes Art Galleries, Museums, totem poles, shopping centers, joy park, and more.

Don’t forget Sunblock, Hat, and raincoat when whale watching

If you’re going for a whale watching adventure pack a sunblock, hat, and a raincoat (or extra clothing layer). Some boat tours may provide you with coats or blankets, but it is always recommended that you go prepared.

Skip Capilano Suspension Bridge if you’ve to

This may sound silly but you can skip the Capilano Suspension Bridge if you have a tight budget. The ticket price is quite expensive and when you’re a tourist, you have to keep a balance of everything. As an alternative, go see the mini suspension bridge in Lynn Canyon Park.

Rent an Apartment

Hotels in Vancouver can be a bit expensive, especially if they’re remotely located. There are a lot of apartments in the city that offer extra space and they are comparatively cheaper. You can rent them and save some bucks. On the plus side, you enjoy the neighborhood.

Leave your Garbage 

Vancouver is a very green city. People here very much frown upon any kind off littering or leaving your junk behind. So no matter what you’re doing please remove your trash after experiencing any areas of this beautiful city.

Always look for Signs

This covers a lot of things. Always keep an eye out for signs and billboards. This includes no smoking in public places, following traffic rules, walking on roads and sideways, and things related to this. Lastly, don’t forget to pay the tip to the waitress, watch you back, and enjoy the friendly community.
