This fantastic trip to Canada is a self-drive holiday rather than a tour, but is such a wonderful deal, for all that it includes, that I felt it was worth letting you know about it. The holiday will take you through Vancouver, Victoria, Tofino, Campbell River & the Knight Inlet, with 3 nights to discover Vancouver's diverse attractions and to enjoy the international cuisine and the city's entertainment.
You will then take the ferry over to Vancouver Island and visit the capital of British Columbia - Victoria - for a spot of whale-watching, and enjoy a scenic drive from Victoria to Tofino to take another whale watching expedition through the Clayoquot Sounds.
From here, travel up to Campbell River and explore the "Salmon Capital of the World," before venturing into the Strathcona Park by floatplane, where you will have the chance to view the Grizzly bears in their natural habitat at Knight Inlet (and see many of the islands other resident mammals). Finally, return to Vancouver for your final night before flying home.
Accommodation for this fabulous holiday is as follows:
Vancouver - Best Western Vancouver Downtown 3*
Victoria – Executive House Hotel 3*
Tofino – Schooner Motel 2*
Campbell River – Heron’s Landing Hotel 3*
