On your next trip to beautiful Vancouver, treat yourself to the Olympic Venues Tour for a behind the scenes look at the many venues in and around Vancouver that will be hosting various sporting competitions for the 2010 Winter Olympics. You can sit back and relax on this tour, as your tour guide will do all of the driving. Your Olympic Venues Tour begins when your professional tour guide picks you up from your Vancouver area hotel and you set off on the streets of Vancouver in a comfortable tour van. First, you will drive through downtown Vancouver, where you will see such sights as the Canada Hockey Place, Vancouver Olympic Centre/Vancouver Paralympic Centre, Pacific Coliseum, and the UBC Thunderbird Arena, all of which will be competition venues for the Winter Olympics. You will also pass by non-competition sites in Vancouver, such as the BC Place, Main Media Centre, and Olympic and Paralympic Village Vancouver.
After exploring Vancouver, you will head out to Richmond to see the competition site of the Richmond Olympic Oval. You will then continue on to North Vancouver, taking in the sights of the competition and non-competition venues there, before you head to Mount Seymour, which will host many of the outdoor winter events. The Olympics Venues Tour is a great way to get a sneak-peek at the Winter Olympics of 2010 in Vancouver!
