You can tell you are a great dad. The little princess is mesmerized by you as you are talking (especially in the beginning of this video). Lovely family. God Bless.
Awww.. thanks Tony!
What a beautiful comment!
Love how this video contains hidden gems you can’t easily find by just looking them up. Very helpful!
Thorough video. Just a few corrections- in Canada we say First Nations not Native American and we have provinces, not states so it’s the province of British Columbia
Did you really have to fix the later? I’m a local too
Your cops are called mounties and you guys pronounce the word "out" "oot" and you guys celebrate Thanksgiving on October, and what's up with Lonnie toonie 😂😂
@@kartikey92Average American who believes that everything in America is the standard and should be the norm, sit down buddy, nobody gives a shit
Also YVR is not Canada’s busiest airport! That title belongs to Toronto-Pearson, YVR is second, but who really cares aside from aviation nerds like me 🤷♂️
@@kartikey92no we don't call our cops mounties, mounties are really only cops who ride horses and are more akin to something like the royal guard in the UK. Our actual police force is called the RCMP, royal Canadian mounted police (back from when they all DID ride horses). The Canadian accent is really more of a thing with older rural canadians, it's like Canada's version of a southern drawl but most of us don't talk like that at all. We celebrate Thanksgiving in October because our harvest season is traditionally earlier due to the fact it gets colder faster here and Thanksgiving is a harvest based festival. And the coin thing is pretty simple, we have one and two dollar coins, the one dollar coins have a bird called a "loon" on them so when they came out people started calling them loonies and then canadians being canadians decided pay as well call the two dollar ones "toonies"
Your daughter is such a gem! What a lovely addition to the video. 🤗
Thanks Anita!
Vancouver is a beautiful city, i can't wait to visit again. Thanks for the great tips!
Excellent video ! So much great information. It's one of the only Provinces I haven't been to as of yet being Canadian. The food looks amazing and so does the shopping. Thanks so much Chris, adding Vancouver to my list.
Thanks Colleen!
great guide. informative and helpful.
Great video Chris as always! Keep up the great work!
Thanks Mauricio!
That was a great informative video. I love the rain and all the green in Raincoover!
Hi Chris, I found your channel July 5th while researching Vancouver. I’m going there in two weeks and wanted to thank you for all the great advice and tips on your channel. I’ve been happily binge-watching! 🙂
Awesome! Thanks Samantha!
Thank you for making this video! Vancouver has actually been on my bucket list for several years. This is great information to help me plan a trip!
Thanks John!
One thing you will wanna look for that wasn't mentioned is prob finding an airbnb by a skytrain, you can stay as far away as Surrey and make it into Vancouver in less then 40 mins
Great to see Vancouver pictured in its rainy season.
Yeah... all the other travel guides are in summer :)
Super informative! thank you!
This is really informative, thankyou!

Thanks Isaac! I think you'll enjoy Vancouver!
Thank you for such an amazing video. I will definitely visit some of these places 😊

Nice video! I’m a born and raised Vancouverite … now living in Auckland. This is a great cure for my homesickness and a great guide for future visitors. 👍
Thanks Droog!
Come to London
Top of Vancouver revolving restaurant 👌 An absolute MUST!

Your traveling princess is such a wonderful prop! Thank you for including her in your informative video.
Fantastic video, Chris! LOVE Vancouver! Definitely made me want to return for a visit! Had no idea about the Lynn Canyon Park! Will definitely visit! 🙂
Thanks Jeannified! And glad to bring something new to you!
Lynn valley is in North Vancouver close to its downtown and it's free👍

Thanks uniplex for your suggestions on what to do as well!
This video is so helpful!
Hi I'm from Vancouver and you really did hit most of the best spots! Great video 👍
Thanks David for the vote of confidence!
great video! thanks for sharing these helpful tips
You're so welcome!
Thanks so much for making this! Heading to Vancouver soon and the tips on driving and parking will be super helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I LOVE this video!!! The Traveling Princess! 😍 It's fun, natural and covers a lot of practical things.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for the video! I will definitely keep these tips in mind when I get a chance to get to Vancouver. I've been to quite a few Canadian cities (mostly in the eastern half), but Vancouver is next on my list to visit. I really like the views from those two bridges!
Thanks Scott! Hopefully this comes in handy for your future Vancouver visit. What's been your favorite Canadian city so far?
@@YellowProductions I really enjoyed Toronto although Montreal is a close second. There are a lot of great food places, and the sights there are quite impressive. It was really cool to go up the CN Tower and be able to look down on the glass floor so high up from the surface! Quebec City is another city I want to visit too.
@@scottman895 Thanks. I'll keep those in mind as we plan other Canadian adventures!
If you go to Vancouver make time For Whistler , approx two hours east , winter or summer , Another place is Vancouver island the west side long beach the drive from the ferry is fantastic, Also to the south end of The island Victoria city , , Another option if you have a rental car is the Okanagon valley this is desert semi desert type valley with big lakes on the valley floor this valley is a grape growing place , look on TH-cam Okanagon valley pictures you will see how nice it is , , Vancouver has a huge Asian population over one million , Chinese, Filipino, East Indian , Korean , this means great food everywhere including out in the suburbs,
Amazing place & happy Memories. Thanks Chris
Thanks Claire!
This is awesome I'm from Vancouver and everywhere I travel in the states I watch your videos and now you are here. Hope you enjoy the trip and welcome.

Okay so this is easily the best video about visiting Vancouver I’ve ever seen. Thank you for covering every detail. Your co-host is adorable by the way.
Wow, thank you!
I agree. I've watched several Vancouver videos, and this is the best one - by far!! 😁
This video was so helpful, thank you!
I'm so glad!
Traveling to Vancouver in the summer and this was super helpful! Thanks Chris!
Will you do more food videos of Vancouver? Heard the dim sum is really good there.
Hi Switchblade.. all the Vancouver videos we published are out now except one more detailing the Ferry ride to Vancouver Island. And we've got about 4 videos from Vancouver Island/ Victoria coming out
Super Informative! Thank You!
Thanks CG!
Lots of great tips here! Thank you so much for this video! Have not been to Vancouver since the pandemic. Really miss it and hoping to visit again soon!
Yup! We just got back from Vancouver! You can tune in to my live stream tomorrow to hear about the trip or stay tuned for the vlog this Friday
I live in Vancouver but I couldn't stop watching your video. You're very entertaining and your daughter is adorable. Great video!

Thanks Linda!
Awesome video Chris! Welcome!
Thanks Clint!
Wow!!!
This is my first video of yours. Man, oh Man!! Lots of great information. I'm currently doing my research for my second visit to Vancouver. My first visit was just to pass through, and this visit is three or four days long (So i'm looking to expand into many different areas of sightseeing. This video was just perfect for me.)
I'll definitely be subscribing and watching more of your videos. Thanks for all your detailed information. Happy travels to you and Princess.
Glad it was helpful! Welcome to Yellow Productions!

Thanks Chris!
it was perfect, and the traveling princess is sooooooo cute. thanks for video
Helpful video-I didn’t realize we’d have to clear customs before our return flight. We’ll have to check out that souvenir shop.
Been watching a ton of your videos - your little princess is super cute and adorable!!! This was timely and appreciated!!!
Thanks James!
amazing video, currently planning on moving to canada for work and Vancouver is my n.1 destination, and your video has helped me solidify my choice :)
Awesome Kuyosakee!

Thanks The Explorer!
Great video!! I took out-of-town friends to the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge too when they visited me here in Raincouver ☔️ Btw, your little girl is adorable 😊
She is so cute!!! Thank you for the informative video!
aberdeen food court thank you!! most people don't mention it but that food court is so amazing!! like you said right on the way in to vancouver can't get any better than that
Josh - indeed the Aberdeen food court is great!
Awesome video!!! God bless you and your family
Thanks Kushal!
Thanks for sharing I notice it’s more about food than Vancouver tour guide.
Was nice seeing you at Capilano Suspension Bridge Chris! Great video :)
Thanks! It was great to see you there too!
Great suicide spot
Cutest baby ever!!..❤..She's so cute!..Thank you for the great info!..
I’m going to Vancouver in a few days, and you have touched some of the places that we would be going…..my dream is finally coming true. I’m going to Vancouver !! Thank you for sharing such great information with your beautiful daughter!!
Have fun!
As a local, this was lots of fun to watch, well done! Just a head's up on a coupe of things - Queen Elizabeth Park was mistakenly called Queen Victoria Park early on, in the parking portion; Granville Island is not actually an island but a peninsula, accessible by anyone, and the St Regis Hotel in Vancouver is not a luxury hotel, but a 3-star (barely), not to be confused with other luxury St Regis Hotels. The rest was spot-on, thanks! Nice to see the Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge mentioned!
Thanks for the corrections John!
I caught that Queen park faux pas, and I'm from Kansas City!
I'm surprised you didn't mention the Native Americans or the Canadian State of British Columbia
What sort of weather can I expect in mid September?
You have done great hardwork and dedication in making this video respect and vancouver is pretty
Thanks Psy or Die!
08:40 Mazesoba opened another stop in metrotown (Station Square) near the 08:10 suggested dim sum spot. Meanwhile, for truly amazing ramen/Japanese noodle, I would recommend the newly opened Menya Itto on the Robson Street
I'm a vancouverite, been watching a lot of your Hawaii videos for my upcoming trip :)
Awesome Anne!
Really Great sir. I really appriciate
Great video , love your princess 👏❤️
Thanks Ricky
I love in Vancouver. you are very good and details to introduce Vancouver. well done. I subscribed your channel and like to see others video.
Thanks for the sub!
I Watched this Video from the Philippines. I'm an American Expat over here (20) Years and in process of Migrating my Family to Vancouver, B.C . Lifetime Permanently. Absolutely LOVE this Video. Excellent presentation, extremely fun and informative, straightforward and Welcoming. Thank You, thank you. Your little daughter is so cute and well behaved. Wonderful Video
Thanks Mr. Joshua! I hope you enjoy your new home of Vancouver! We enjoyed the city on our trip
Welcome to Vancouver, I’m sure you will love the city (and the rain beats the 30 years of snow that I dealt with in Ottawa:)
Love it!
An absolutely beautiful place. My home.
Thanks Chris!! Flying out to YVR tomorrow for a Celebrity cruise!! Always awesome content and tips!
Awesome Chris! Enjoy Vancouver and the Cruise!!!
Great video for someone like me who's traveling to Vancouver to attend the Vancouver International Film Festival this fall. Have learnt so much about the city. And the travelling princess is so adorable 🥰
Awww
Thanks for this, would love to do Seattle, Vancouver and Alaska as part of a North West US/Canada tour at some point.
Thanks Mark!
I'd suggest taking the ferries up to Alaska then. You'd have a great trip!
I miss Vancouver. Moving back after my retirement very soon ❤️👍😜🇨🇦
It basically is never not raining here ☔️🤦♀️🤣 I’ve lived here my entire life and still am not used to it. Unfortunately Robson Street used to be a jewel of a shopping district but insane lease prices, Amazon,
and the pandemic have caused so many closures. But it’s pretty cool that you could be skiing or boating on the same day. Great video Chris!
Thanks Amber!
I lived here my entire life as well..where r u exactly...never stops raining!!! wtf..
Your Vidio always good 6
Thanks so much for great
Thanks Diamond Foundation!
One of the more accurate videos about Rain-couver. If you love Asian food, this is the place to come to. If you like to pay for parking everywhere you go. This is also the city to come to. Mind you, most shopping malls OUTSIDE of downtown will have free parking --- and all the same mall stores).
If you want to avoid the rain, then late June to Mid August is generally warm and sunny. September is not bad either. If you like rain, then show up in late October and stay until Mid April. Vancouver will cure you of your love for rain.
🙂
Thanks for the extra tips on Rain-couver farkin!
I’ll be there late October! It works for our schedule so this tip is helpful 👍🏼🙂
The rain makes green and beautiful.
What an amazing video!!
Thanks Mateo!
I love Vancouver thanks
Thanks kiet!
The most beautiful of all is the way your daughter enjoy the trip too...
Thanks Beth!
I enjoyed all your videos Chris. But I'm a fairly new subscriber. I'm going to Quebec City in August and I was wondering if you have a video on it??
Hi Claudia! Thanks the kind words on my videos. Unfortunately no videos on Quebuc City yet
Your daughter is so cute! Nice to know I can do all of these activities with my daughter! Thanks for all the tips.
Thanks Sarah!
Thanks for the memeories..Lived in English Bay for 13 years...the Innukshuk is open arms to visitors!
Wow interesting info about the language.
Hi, I'm Brazilian and this is the greatest guide video I've found of Vancouver city. I've gone to Vancouver in October 2017 and this video made me miss a lot of this city. I hope I can return over there as soon as possible! Congratulations on the video
Thanks Junior!
I will like to visit there! Beautiful country.
Canadian here, I can't wait to visit Japan! :)
