Day 3 - Vancouver to Whistler (B)
The Whistler Mountaineer is a 3-hour, premier train journey from North
Vancouver to Whistler. The “Coast Classic” service delivers the unique blend of
contrasts the Sea to Sky region is famous for; cities and old growth forests,
bustling action and natural serenity, deep valleys and snow-capped peaks,
seascapes and mountain views. Included is breakfast served at your seat and
interpretive commentary from the onboard attendants.
Overnight in Whistler
Day 4 - Whistler
Today’s options in Whistler are the choice of the Tree Trek Canopy Walk, a
spectacular walk through a network of suspension bridges, boardwalks and trails
that take you from the forest floor to the upper reaches of the forest canopy OR,
for the more adventurous, try the Ziptrek Ecotour where you’ll experience the
exhilaration of flying as you glide along steel ziplines suspended high above
the breathtaking white-water river that divides Whistler and Blackcomb
Mountains. The ziplines are joined by a network of ground based boardwalks and
trails, and by aerial stairways and bridges at heights of over eighty feet in
the tree canopy!
Overnight in Whistler
Day 5 - Whistler to Victoria
After a free morning to explore Whistler at leisure, a 1-hour flight will
take you from Whistler to the Inner Harbour in Victoria. This daily flight will
depart Green Lake located 2 km from Whistler Village, (transfer not included)
passing through one of the most scenic valleys on the BC Coast, up the Howe
Sound, over Horseshoe Bay, then past the city of Vancouver and over the Gulf
Islands. See Shannon Falls and glaciers on this amazing flight over the Gulf
Islands. Transfer by taxi to your Victoria hotel (not included).
Overnight in Victoria
Day 6 - Victoria
An exciting day awaits. This morning, take a city tour of Victoria. Later,
choose either the Butchart & Butterfly Gardens tour OR a 3-hour
whale watching cruise. The tour to Butchart Gardens will include the Sunken
Gardens, Japanese Gardens, Italian Gardens, English Rose Gardens and Ross
Fountain. If your choice is whale watching, this excursion will be a round trip
out of Victoria’s Inner Harbour in search of killer whales, porpoises, harbour
seals, and other marine wildlife. The boat will slow or stop allowing
passengers to observe wildlife, take photographs, and ask questions. Remember

binoculars.
