Wish you had a friend in Vancouver who could show you the "real" British Columbia? Look no further than an eco-friendly tour dedicated to helping visitors to the area explore what many tourists miss. Explore beautiful British Columbia the way the locals do: ride a ferry, hike through the lush coastal rain forest, and experience the awe-inspiring mountains of the North Shore on an environmentally sustainable tour.

The small group tour starts at Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouver, most easily accessible by the SeaBus from Vancouver. You will be picked up in an environmentally friendly vehicle (the only tour in Vancouver running ecologically friendly vehicles on Veggie Oil!) and enjoy a scenic drive through local neighborhoods and see the variety of unique homes that reflect the multi-cultural nature of Vancouver.

Head to the local bird sanctuary at Maplewood Flats conservation area, where many migratory birds and other animals take refuge. Depending on your specific interests, the tour also includes Cates Park, home of handcrafted totem poles and a Native war canoe, and Deep Cove, a quaint town beautifully situated between Mount Seymour and the Burrard Inlet.

Put on your walking shoes for an easy hike on the Baden Powell Trail in Mount Seymour Provincial Park. The tour also includes a stop at the Lynn Canyon Park, where you can cross a suspension bridge 20 stories above Lynn Creek and the valley floor, as well as explore the ecology center to learn more about British Columbia's lush rain forest. Learn about the local ecology at the Lynn Canyon Ecology Centre. The tour is low-key to give you all the time you need to enjoy the unique beauty of the province.
