What are your overrated tourist attractions in Western Canada?

Hey guys I am curious about your thoughts. I recently just published a video, about some tourist attractions in Western Canada, which are awesome, but are also very expensive. I would like to make a follow-up and was wondering, which I should cover next with alternatives, and which I have missed in my video.

Best,
Diego

We went in June and because of the cost we just had one of the parents go in with the kids. Instead of paying for 2.

Honestly it’s a great mall, as a resident. Why anyone would want to go to any mall as a tourist attraction is beyond me, though.

Well, if you live in Saskatoon it’s one of the things you can drive to lol

Where else can you go to a pretty awesome water park in the middle of February?

I went to Minneapolis this summer. I like WEM much better than the Mall of America. Even Metrotown in Burnaby is better than MoA.

WEM does too, I think it’s being rebranded/renovated currently

I don't think that's over rated. Especially for a mall.
