- I pretend I'm travelling solo to Vancouver for 3 days. This is just an example of what I might choose to do - so some of my choices might be more catered to my tastes. Still, you might find some inspiration for your own trip here. :) Let me know if you want to see places outside of the central downtown area, and perhaps I'll make another video.

Your video is vary exciting,your storytelling is wonderful,it’s very nice!🎉
Thank you!
Awesome video!! Visiting Vancouver in late-November for 3 days and this was perfect to get some ideas going. Thank you!
Great to hear, enjoy your trip!
This will surely encourage many people to explore this place up close! Beautiful work my friend 👏
I hope so, thank you!
I'm visiting Vancouver at the end of September for a concert. I booked the trip in February and have been scouring RUclips weekly for a video just like this! Besides the fact that I'm staying for 5 days instead of 3, this checks off all the other conditions listed in your assumptions at the beginning of the video. I can't thank you enough for sharing this!
Amazing, what a coincidence! Enjoy your trip! :)
Your way of storytelling is so well paced, vividly scripted.. almost like watching a NatGeo documentary… became your instant fan and subscribed .. respect from Mississauga, ON … look forward to seeing more ❤
Wow thank you so much! Looking forward to sharing more!
Great video for future visitors. I’m a Vancouverite living abroad and this video is a great cure for my homesickness. Thank you.
Aw, thank you!
What a lovely and informative video. I have been low-key wishing for you to put out something like this as I would love to visit Vancouver. I followed your Montreal itinerary almost to a tee this summer and had an amazing time. Thank you for your travel videos - they are one of the best on YT! 😊
Oh my gosh haha I love that you did that! Thank you so much :)
Been to Vancouver for five days, fell in love to the city and British Columbia immediately. Love the beautiful natural sceneries and the clean cityscape. I’m from Toronto and though I think Vancouver has a lot of things are similar to here, the tension of people’s daily life is much slower. I’ll definitely return to Vancouver when it comes to the winter!
Haha yes I’ve been to Toronto and it’s definitely slower here in Vancouver. Thanks for watching!
I was in Vancouver in 2018, during the 4/20 rally. The weather was very nice! Just a beautiful city to look at!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for making this! My first trip is coming up soon!
Have an amazing trip!
I found you on my FYP this morning. I watched your storm-watching video in Tofino, and it was epic. Thanks for sharing what Van has to offer with the world.
Awesome! Thank you!
Awesome share and channel my friend
See you soon have a wonderful week 👍🏻👍🏻
Fantastic video, as a fellow local I fully agree with your itinerary, and even discovered a few new tips as well! Will definitely be passing this video forward to friends that swing by for a visit :)
Thank you! I’m glad a fellow local agrees, haha
Hi Daphne. Thank you for amazing video! 💜 I dream of Vancouver, your video is inspiring ✨
Thank you so much :)
Another nice vlog Daphne. Keep exploring
Thank you!
you're welcome @@DaphneXplores
this is beautiful i loved it thank you for sharing
greetings from Bhutan
god bless!
Thanks for watching!
Lots of places here I have yet to visit!!
Guess it’s time to go!
need more Vancouver videos! planning on moving there from the UK.
Awesome, thanks for watching!
Hello! Thanks to you and your blog, I am now convinced on visiting Vancouver as a stop this November before I finally go to the US. This will be my first time in Canada. With that, may I ask for other places you will recommend if I stay for 7 days (e.g., Vancouver Island?) And if you have tips for traveling during this time? Looking forward to your reply and more power to you and your channel. :)
Your vlogs are very helpful
I’m glad you think so, thanks for watching!
As a home sick Canadian living abroad thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Long time no see.
Another great video 👍
Could you Do Stevenston
again one day in the sumer
Thanks so much
Love from London UK
🇬🇧👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Personally in Steveston I fully recommend visiting Nikaido to pick up some Cream of Earl Grey tea leaves, browsing the Richmond Hospital Healthcare Auxiliary Thrift Shop if you enjoy looking for cheap secondhand souvenirs, walking the Steveston Boardwalk and Fisherman's Wharf, and perhaps either taking a whale-watching tour or taking a leisurely walk to the Britannia Shipyards (open-air museum with several buildings) :)
I followed your itinerary a bit while I was in Montreal over the weekend - had a wonderful time! Now after watching this video (and your Tofino trip), I'm inspired and am looking for flights to Vancouver for 2024. How many days would you recommend at a minimum to do both locations?
That’s great to hear! For Vancouver and Tofino, I would personally recommend at least 2 nights in each location. You could potentially make Tofino a one-night trip but I feel that if you’ve made it all the way out there, may as well take a bit more time to soak it all in (especially in the summer, there’s more to do)! :)
Yes, hoping to do 5-7 nights since we don't make it out to BC much at all. Thank you very much. @@DaphneXplores
Good information. Where did you stay for 3 nights?
This is a sample as I live here
Hi Daphne. Greetings from Montreal !! I loved this "Foodie / Tourist" video. How is it living out there, cost wise? I know we just signed our new lease and we are very close to paying $1000.00 for our 1 br apt in Downtown West. Every year now we can expect a $30.00 per year raise. Is it difficult to find a place that won't break the bank, and can you afford to live in the city, seeing that Vancouver is one of the most expensive cities in Canada ?? it is a really pretty city.
Hi, thanks for watching! It’s honestly so expensive to live here 😞 1br rentals in the city are probably well over $2k (not just downtown, this is a lot of the lower mainland too). I don’t want to deter people from our beautiful city but I also know that it’s quite difficult cost-wise for a lot of people who decide to move here, so it’s something you have to prepare for.
Sorry to say Jeremy, but those costs of livings and annual increases you mentioned are laughable. Average rental prices for a 1 bedroom apartment in city centre in the following cities is listed as:
Vancouver $2,729
Toronto $2,565
Victoria $2,141
Ottawa $1,850
Calgary $1,745
Halifax $1,818
Montreal $1,613
The fact you are paying $1000 is kinda insane. And $30 per yer increase is only 3%, when the current national average increase is 12%. Enjoy the golden ticket you are sitting on!
