    You can certainly get a plethora of printed media from your hotel about the city. But I suggest you…read morepay a visit when you arrive in Vancouver anyway. Because what you don't get is the first hand knowledge, short cuts, tips and local tidbits that the enthusiastic staff here will impart. Kudos to Vancouver for attracting what seems to be volunteer retirees who love their city and want to make sure that you love it too and will get the most out of your visit here too. I spoke to two volunteers here, and another while we took a ferry ride, who went on the False Creek Ferry tour with her husband so she could talk intelligently about it. It appears that the staff on their days off take the time to go to the site and attractions the Centre recommends. They are honest in their opinions about places and are good at reading your needs too. On the day I stopped by and praised the natural beauty of the city, the volunteer recommended Lighthouse Park to me, after I informed her that wanted to explore places outside central Vancouver area. She was a gem, the park was a delight, and her advice about going early to avoid the traffic on Lion's Gate, because of a lane closure, is the kind of tip you can really only get from a local. I loved the fact that when I asked her a question she didn't know, she asked another person who did know. Teamwork and passion and common sense. Wow! The Centre is clean(that word is synonymous with Vancouver I am finding), spacious, and well stocked with all sorts of printed cards and brochures from various places and vendors. Look for the places you want to visit to see if they offer discounts. Get the brochure/map on Stanley Park as it is colorful and well done. It was so pretty I brought it home so I could gaze out it while dreaming about my next trip. The large city map the tourism board prints out is good too, if your hotel already doesn't have that one. Get also the cheat sheet on attractions the Centre prints out. That tells you what bus, train to take, and if it is a two fare zone etc. (My only tip now would be for LIghthouse Park, that they add the actual stop to get off! Also, the only bus that goes to Marine Drive I was told by a local runs only 3x Sundays!). It's a plain Xerox sheet, nothing fancy, chock full of useful information. I was already used to Vancouver's fairly easy mass transit system but if you are not a savvy, that is truly helpful. I thought it was terrific even though I had plotted most of my routes. This is one of the best tourism offices I've visited in terms of friendliness of staff, the quantity and quality of information from the staff. The only strange thing seems to be a lack of public bathroom but I was directed to the food court just next door! Just a note: If anyone from the tourist board reads this, I understand the Giant Os Gemeos might be in trouble. Why not have a satellite stand on Granville Island just asking for $1 from every visitor? Or ask randomly the visitors who come through YVR? Just one dollar? Or have the city host an Os Gemeo BBQ, with tickets going to support their maintenance?

So disgusted with your transit system.

    Olympic National Park has several visitor centers and ranger stations because of how big it is…read more This is the main visitor center for the park. Olympic National Park Visitor Center is in Port Angeles on the road to Hurricane Ridge. It has plenty of parking spaces and a welcome sign that you can get a photo in front of. This was my first visit to Olympic National Park. I appreciated the help that I received from the staff here. They gave me information on how to navigate my way around the park. I was excited to make the trek up to Hurricane Ridge for the day. It is one of the most visited areas of Olympic National Park. I wanted to do the Hurricane Hill hike while I was here. The park ranger explained to me how to get to the trailhead and where to park. Because the Wi-Fi is spotty in this area, they have paper maps available. Olympic National Park Visitor Center is also a gift shop and sells snacks and beverages. The building itself is spacious and has two levels. There are exhibits about the park's natural and cultural history, a discovery room for kids and a film that plays throughout the day. Make sure you check out the wildflowers out front and the nature trails behind the building. Also, don't forget to stamp your national park passport book while you are here. There are entrance stations on Hurricane Ridge Road once you pass this visitor center. The drive up to Hurricane Ridge is around 17 miles. Hurricane Ridge Road sometimes closes in the winter due to avalanches.

    Awesome place. We go out national park stamp and stickers. Great place to go. Thank you once again…read morefor the staff. It was so much fun we learn a lot.

    During our stay in Harrison Hot Springs last week, we located the Harrison Tourism Office and…read moreSasquatch Museum occupying temporary office space on Lillooet Avenue. When we visited the facility, we found out that the location on Hot Springs Road was currently under re-construction, and they hoped to move back to a new and larger facility some time later this year. Daughter and I located the temporary location a little by accident, when looking for some parking space our first morning in town. We had dropped Mom off at the hotel, and she and I went back for a drive around, and look see at what might have happened in Harrison since our last visit. We saw some 15 minute free parking, and when we pulled into the space, found ourselves directly in front of Harrison Tourism -- right where we wished to be, and it was open. The first, of two visits during our stay in Harrison. We had different hosts for our visits, and each was so cordial, and informative. During the first time there, we browsed the Sasquatch Museum setups, I took some photos, and we chatted about Harrison 'stuff & such' with our host at the time. When we returned the second time, more chatting with our host at the time, I took a few more photos, and we both purchased some gifts to remember our trip and stay. We sure look forward to seeing the new setup when it is completed. But for this Harrison stay, our hosts and exhibits at the present Tourism Harrison location were fun, interesting, and informative, and we sure enjoyed spending some time with them.

    Had a good time getting the local stories about Bigfoot. The host also shared about a local art…read moreshow we would have never known about in Harrison Mills.

    Wonderfully run tours for gay men. I took their 12 day tour of Spain which included Barcelona,…read moreGranada, Sevilla and Madrid. I enjoyed their helpful yet flexible format so much I'm planning my next tour with them. Unlike other group tours, you're not stuck on a bus and forced into their schedule. You can go with the group to popular locations or you can spend time on your own, or both! It's really the best of both worlds, having a reliable tour leader to take you to see the sites--as well as having all the free time you want to explore on your own. There's a walking tour of each city, and a list of the most popular sites. You choose what you want to do, and the tour leader creates a schedule so your interests don't conflict. You go to big attractions, like Gaudi's Sagrada Familia, as a group because they've arranged for tickets in advance (without which you can't get in). Our group leaders, Dan, was always helpful, organized, kind, cheerful, always calm, and funny. He made sure we got to see what we wanted to see, either as a group or individually. The 14 gay guys on the trip were all good-natured and easy to get along with. As well as having a great format, Detours is also an excellent value as travel gets more expensive. You stay at lovely, centrally located hotels, with a buffet breakfast included to keep you going all day. The group meets for dinner which you can attend or not, as always, it's your choice. Transportation between cities on the tour are also included. It's a low stress, great fun way to discover the world with like-minded people.

We weren't disappointed. Our guide, Darren, was fantastic. He was attentive and knowledgable - he was fun, friendly and knowledgable, while also keeping the group on track. The entire trip was fantastic, but the highlight for us was really exploring Jordan. We enjoyed floating in the Dead Sea, were amazed by Petra, and were truly impressed by the Wadi Rum desert. One of our highlights was going out into the desert at night and enjoying the starlit sky. This was our 7th trip with Detours, and it won't be our last. We love their relaxed approach and the small group concept. This vacation is definitely worth checking out if you want to explore this part of the world without the hassle of planning everything yourself.
