Vancouver can be explored seven ways — by water, air and land — and the official top pick is exploring on foot. 1. By foot: the official favourite — the best way to uncover hidden gems and must-visit hole-in-the-wall spots. 2. By trolley: San Francisco-style vintage trolleys with hop-on, hop-off service connecting Vancouver's biggest attractions. 3. By bike: the city is extremely bike-friendly — rent along Denman Street in the West End and ride the Seawall. 4. By car: useful when it rains or you're crossing bridges to multiple destinations; rent or join a car-share program. 5. By SkyTrain: the most frequented mode of transport, easy to navigate from point A to point B and everywhere in between. 6. By seaplane: Harbour Air scenic flights such as the Vancouver Classic Panorama Tour (a 20-minute flight over the city and North Shore mountains). 7. By Aquabus: a little water taxi — because everything is prettier on the water.
