You're supplied with a bicycle, a helmet and a lock, and you'll get a full review of the bike's operating components and a quick safety lesson before leaving.
After a short hill, reach the Davie Street Village, the most colorful neighborhood in the city and the site of Vancouver's Pride Festival. A block away from Davie Street, visit the Mole Hill Community, the largest collection of heritage homes in the city.
Traveling exclusively on bike lanes, you're guided to Robson Square, the heart of the downtown core. After a quick walk around, get back on the bike lanes and pedal to the waterfront area, stopping in front of the Vancouver Convention Centre. Your guide will tell you the history of the buildings before moving on to Jack Poole Plaza and the Olympic Cauldron.
Make your way to the Vancouver seawall, a 13.5-mile (22-km) path around the exterior of the city that offers picturesque views of the local mountains and the city's towering skyline. The seawall is divided into cycling and walking paths for the safety of everyone.
After a distance of 1.25 miles (2 km) along the seawall, reach Stanley Park. After a quick stop at Lost Lagoon, the park's serene bird sanctuary, return to the seawall for the 5-mile (8-km) loop around the outside of the park.
