Good vancouver dinner cruises fill their window tables weeks ahead. Below: the 4 to book early, what each fare includes and how they differ once you are on board.
Board at 6:30 pm near Stanley Park for a 2.5-hour dinner cruise through Vancouver Harbour and Burrard Inlet. Enjoy a West Coast buffet with salmon, live music, and views of Canada Place, Granville Island, the North Shore Mountains, and the West Vancouver shoreline.
“The crew was very helpful. The music was nice and relaxing. Dinner was amazing and the views spectacular. Definitely would do again”
Sail Vancouver’s harbour, English Bay, and nearby shoreline for 150 to 210 minutes while enjoying an all-you-can-eat West Coast buffet and in-house music. Expect skyline and sunset views, fresh salmon, attentive service, and a relaxed evening aboard a vessel that may vary by departure.
“This was an enjoyable evening. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. The food was good and the service was nice. Not really easy to hear the tour guide while on Deck but the atmosphere was fun. The live music was a great touch and very pleasant to listen to. I will book one of these crosses again!”
Spend 3 to 4 hours aboard a small-group Vancouver brunch cruise, eating a buffet meal while sailing from the inner harbor through Burrard Inlet toward Indian Arm. Use the open-air top deck for views of downtown, Coast Mountains, forests, waterfalls, and possible bald eagles or black bears.
“Beautiful scenery, great food, and an added bonus met lots of nice people on our trip. Went on a Monday and it was not too crowded”
Set out from 501 Denman Street at 10:30 a.m. for about three hours on a Vancouver harbour and Indian Arm cruise. You’ll have reserved seating, a buffet lunch, coffee or tea, live music, and views of Burrard Inlet, bridges, mountains, and a waterfall.
“Amazing experience and wonderful day spent on the cruise. Good food, beautiful scenery visible from the deck”
Pick a river, a harbour or a kind of evening.
