A Fun and Convenient Way to Explore Vancouver’s Nightlife
If you’re looking to enjoy Vancouver’s lively bar scene without the hassle of lines or planning, the VIP Group Clubbing Experience with the West Coast Party Crawl offers a spirited and well-organized evening. Starting at The Yale Saloon for some fun games, then moving through four top venues—Aura Nightclub, Cabana Lounge, Twelve West, and Good Co. Bars—this tour packs plenty of highlights into about five and a half hours. The price per person is around $22.27, making it a pretty affordable way to experience the local nightlife with VIP perks like skip-the-line entry and free drinks at each stop.
What we love most about this experience is the dedicated guides who handle all the navigation and line management, allowing us to simply enjoy ourselves. The free shots at each venue add a social, festive touch, and the variety of places—from relaxed lounges to energetic dance floors—means there’s something for all. Think of it as a curated night out, where the emphasis is on fun, safety, and meeting new people.
One consideration worth noting is that two pieces of physical ID are required to enter the bars, which is standard but something to remember if you’re planning to join. Also, this experience is designed for groups, so solo travelers or couples might find it less intimate, but still a great way to meet others.
This tour is perfect for travelers who want a hassle-free, lively night with friends or fellow explorers. If you’re after a memorable, well-organized way to enjoy Vancouver’s nightlife in a social setting, this crawl hits the mark.

After dancing, the tour shifts gears with Bar None Nightclub, which offers a more relaxed, cozy vibe.

If you’re not in the mood for nonstop dancing, this venue provides a softer, more laid-back environment.
Here, you get another free drink, and the atmosphere gives you a chance to chat and connect. It’s a reminder that not all nightlife has to be high-energy; sometimes, a more mellow vibe is just what you need.
High-Energy at Good Co. Granville
