If time is short and you need to book a low-cost, last-minute flight to Vancouver, let Opodo help. The city is situated on the Pacific Ocean and is enclosed by mountains. Vancouver's mild climate, engaging atmosphere and outdoor scenery make it an ideal place for a city break any time of year.
Start your last-minute trip by absorbing some Vancouver culture. The Vancouver Museum gives a good overview of the city's rich cultural heritage. Then why not visit Vancouver Art Gallery and see its collection taking in work from historic and contemporary artists. It is the largest art gallery in Western Canada.
You could also view First Nations' art on canoes and totem poles at the Museum of Anthropology - this is on the same site as the University of British Columbia.
If you love nature, why not spend a day of your last-minute holiday at some of Vancouver's beautiful botanical gardens. Absorb the tranquillity of The Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, which highlights all the features of a natural landscape in a small area, with plants carefully chosen for their symbolic qualities.
The 55 acre VanDusen Botanical Garden has stunning vistas of lakes, rockeries, a Himalayan Garden and a collection of 11,000 plants from around the world.
