You'll start your day in the beautiful coastal campus at the University of British Columbia. Just 30 minutes from downtown, the easily accessible grounds are home to the Museum of Anthropology, where you can discover much of our city's deep Indigenous roots.

After exploring our history it's time to learn about the nature that helped shape it. A visit to the Beaty Biodiversity Museum will help you understand Vancouver's wildlife, environment and connection to the world around us.

After lunch it's time to explore the lush campus gardens. UBC Botanical Garden & Greenheart TreeWalk is a hidden Vancouver gem, a stunning natural setting with 310 metres of suspension bridges strung high up in the rainforest.

Looking for space to reflect? You'll find it at the Nitobe Memorial Garden—a tranquil Japanese "stroll garden" and traditional tea house that's considered to be one of the most authentic examples outside of Japan. Cherry blossoms shower the garden in spring, making it the perfect time to visit this magical pocket of Vancouver.

You've seen our city and learned about its history, now it's time to get a taste for what Vancouver has to offer - literally. On the menu tonight is a gastronomic tour of historic Gastown, one of Vancouver's hippest neighbourhoods. With the help of Vancouver Foodie Tours you'll live like a local, sampling local cuisine and craft drinks.
