Vancouver Island Explorer

Start & end in Vancouver 10 days Up to 12

About this trip

Vancouver Island packs a lot into ten days: beaches, forest hikes, alpine lakes and wild coastline, often all within a short drive of each other. This is a hotel-based coach tour, so you settle in and let the driving be someone else's job while you focus on getting outside.

Expect a mix of easy coastal time and proper trekking, through cedar forest, alpine meadow and along storm-battered shoreline where wildlife sightings are part of the draw.

What you'll do

  • Hike trails leading to glaciers and alpine lakes
  • Spend time on beaches for swimming, sunbathing or surfing
  • Walk through old-growth cedar forest and alpine meadows
  • Look out for wildlife along wild, storm-swept shores
  • Visit cascading waterfalls and hidden lakes
Good to know
  • Moderate pace with a new activity most days
  • Coach-based touring with hotel stays throughout
  • Hiking is a core part of this trip, so decent fitness helps
