    Great book for the highlights of Vancouver, but don’t buy it thinking it will have much about Victoria or Vancouver Island. Get the Frommer’s book on Vancouver Island for that. Happy whale watching!

    “Top Ten Vancouver” is in the familiar and very useful DK format, with lots of useful information in a compact format for the tourist. In just over 120 pages, “Top Ten” covers the most popular tourist attractions in Vancouver, such as Stanley Park, Canada Place, the Capilano Suspension Bridge, and a variety of museums and other parks. The guide includes pictures, details about each attraction, and maps showing how to get there.

    As noted, the focus is on the most popular destinations. The guide includes useful information on reaching the city and where to stay, eat, and shop. The information addresses cautions on crime and traffic. The traveler seeking more choices and details on accomodations should consult some of the most expansive guides such as Fedor’s, Frommer’s, or Lonely Planet. The compact size of this DK guide makes it perfect for roaming Vancouver. A limited amount of information is provided on the City of Victoria, on Vancouver Island across the Strait of Georgia and reachable by ferry.

    This guide is highly recommended for the traveler planning a vacation in Vancouver.

    This Top Ten collection is really good for summarizing everything you need to know about a place, and if you do not stay too long it is not worth buying the bigger more detailed more expensive guide!!!

    Definetely worth the money…Took more than a week to arrive though.
