Ghost Stories of Gastown Come Alive

Do you ever find yourself in a new city wondering about the history of those old brick buildings and cobblestone pathways? This was the perfect way for us to dig into the colorful past of Vancouver’s Gastown! Our guide was perfectly in character, drawing us into the stories he wove into the tour. I think his name was Will or Bill and he’s a great actor too. My husband and I had a great time!
