Vancouver Island is worth being the main event on a Canada holiday; often visited as a short side trip from Vancouver, the island is packed with adventures and wildlife experiences, so just a few days is never enough. Our 14-night flexible fly-drive holiday takes in many of the island’s highlights including the historic Victoria waterfront and the spectacular floral displays of Butchart Gardens. Wander through 800-year-old forests at Cathedral Grove and along the Wild Pacific Trail. Embark on bear and whale watching experiences in Tofino and off-shore at Farewell Harbour Lodge, where you will spend four days in the pristine wilderness of Broughton Archipelago Marine Park and the Great Bear Rainforest.
