Fun little tour - This tour is a very small boat so it's a fun way to meet others. The tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. It's really just a water taxi service normally but they offer this one hour narrated tour which is nice just to get to know the waterfront of Granville Island, Stanley Park and ports.

Life along False Creek - Had a very enjoyable boating along False Creek on our electric powered boat. Our driver/guide was so knowledgeable about the area and made the whole trip both worthwhile and enjoyable. We also spotted harbour seals!

Nice Ferry Ride - From Granville Island we walked over to the Maritime Museum (1.2 mi), and instead of walking back we decided to take one of the small water ferries that we've been seeing cruising up and down the waterway. We hopped on the boat at the dock near the museum, and paid the operator of the boat using a credit card ($6 CAD one-way per person). The tiny boat itself can hold about 12 people or so. The travel time was about 15 mins, and the ride was quite smooth. Definitely worth doing at least once while you're on Granville Island.

Good one hour overview! - Good overview of the False Creek area. Narrated by the boat pilot. They used an electric boat so it was quiet and could hear the pilot/guide. Good way to spend an hour in the Grandview Island area.
