What: Looking to stretch your legs over the festive season? Join the ever-friendly folks at Forbidden Vancouver for their sparkling, limited edition holiday walking tour. You'll weave through some of the city's grandest downtown heritage buildings (look out for some beautifully decorated lobbies) and hear some eye-opening real-life tales of yesteryear murder, mayhem and even Fred Astaire! The tour also includes a visit to the Marine Building––Vancouver's art deco skyscraper masterpiece––as well as a deliciously warming hot chocolate treat from a local cafe. The perfect reason to head outside over the holidays, be sure to book ahead for this tour: there are only a limited number of dates available and it is expected to fill up quickly.
