Wildlife Of British Columbia - Family Holiday

Tripcode: FNV

Countries visited: Canada, USA

Family Groups Teenage Departures available Wildlife Wilderness Family Activity
  • Whale watching
  • Kayaking
  • Camping on Vancouver Island
Mountain Meadow, British Columbia

Western Canada contains some of the most striking scenery and abundant wildlife in North America. On this diverse trip we spend time both high in the mountains and down at sea, experiencing all the best this region has to offer.

Glistening glaciers, alpine meadows, lakes and forests adorn the Coastal Mountains, whilst Black bears and Bald eagles frequent the slopes.

The Vancouver Island region is a marine life paradise amongst tranquil islands with pristine beaches and ancient rainforest.

The highlight, however, is likely to be whale watching, as sightings are virtually guaranteed, and Orcas, Grey whales and Humpbacks are often seen.

 

What makes this trip responsible?

When visiting National Parks we stick to marked trails to reduce our impact on the local environment and we pay entrance fees which go towards supporting conservation efforts in the area. Throughout the trip we employ a ‘leave no trace’ policy in regard to litter - everything taken into the park is taken out to preserve the local environment. We recycle wherever possible and all leaders are trained in responsible tourism to enable them to follow best practice.
