Optional Weekend Excursions and Daytrips

We offer optional weekend excursions and daytrips that can be added on to any program and tailored to meet the needs and budget of our clients.

Vancouver

Visit historic Stanley Park, including the totem poles, witness the jaw-dropping scenic views from Capilano Suspension Bridge, shop along famous Robson Street, explore the history and boutiques of Gastown, the city’s oldest neighbourhood, and marvel at the artisans and local produce on Granville Island.

Some groups flying into Vancouver airport find it desirable to include a one- or two-night stay in Vancouver before being transported to TRU. However, including a Vancouver trip at the end of the program can be a nice finale to your time in Canada.
