Sustainable Things to Do in Vancouver

Why choose nature in Vancouver?

Vancouver is a playground for nature lovers, but accessibility requires responsibility. Our curated experiences take you into Stanley Park—an urban rainforest larger than Central Park—with First Nations guides who explain the ancestral history of the land ("Talking Trees" tours). This shifts the focus from simple sightseeing to deep cultural respect.

Cross the Capilano Suspension Bridge or hike the Grouse Grind, but do it with operators who contribute to conservation. We also highlight the city's incredible Asian culinary scene, focusing on restaurants that use Ocean Wise sustainable seafood. Whether you are kayaking in False Creek or hiking the North Shore mountains, YOVU ensures your adventure respects the unceded territories and diverse ecosystems of British Columbia.
