Vancouver: Vancouver's historic neighbourhoods spring to life on a tour with your Travel Director. Admire the Victorian facades, cobblestone streets and charming lighting of Gastown as you make your way to the leafy sanctuary of Stanley Park.
Vancouver: Go beyond Stanley Park’s iconic seawall with a trip to the famous totem pole display at Brockton Point. Delve into history starting in 1920 when four totem poles from the Alert Region on Vancouver Island were created. Originally located on Lumbermen's arch and Prospect Point, they were moved to their current location at Brockton Point in 1962, with thee display growing over the decades with totem poles from Haida Gwaii and Rivers Inlet.
Victoria: Victoria. A waterfront city of historic sites known for its gardens and British influence. View the Parliament Buildings erected in 1897 with beautiful gardens. Then explore on your own, strolling along the Inner Harbour where you will have the chance to watch street buskers perform or venturing to Victoria's unique shopping areas in Market Square.
Victoria: Buchart Gardens’ lush and expansive garden is a must-see oasis which has been growing in Victoria, BC for over 100 years. With over a million visitors per year, you will love this morning's visit to the gardens before opening hours. Starting with a breakfast on the grounds, you will get to explore the 55-acre garden rich with ever-changing colours and blooms before the crowds arrive.
Mount Robson: Mount Robson, one of the world's crown jewels awaits. Admire one of the finest views in the Rocky Mountains of this UNESCO-listed icon which is also the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies at 12,972 feet. Not only will you bask in a view of Mount Robson but learn from your Travel Director why it's the most prominent mount in North America's Rocky Mountain Range.
Maligne Lake: See how Maligne Lake is in a league of its own on a scenic cruise. Discover world-famous Spirit Island and get great photo opportunities with beautiful views of the mountains, its three glaciers and Spirit Island - significant to the Indigenous Stoney Nation. Learn about the geology, wildlife and history of this spectacular alpine destination and how, because visitors cannot walk on the island, it remains an enclave of evergreens. And since you can only see Spirit Island from a cruise, you’ll love being one of the few who get to see it.
Icefields Parkway: Unlock the Canadian Rockies' pristine wilderness on one of the most scenic drives in North America – the Icefield Parkway. This stretch of double-lane highway from Jasper to Lake Louise winds along the Continental Divide through rocky mountain peaks, rock spires, waterfalls, icefields, valleys and more than 100 ancient glaciers. Snap a pic at a viewpoint to capture the beauty.
Columbia Icefield: Gear up for a Columbia Icefield Adventure. Board a massive, specially designed ‘Ice Explorer’ to view one of the largest non-polar ice fields in the world, the Athabasca Glacier. Stop at the best spot to walk on, feel and drink from the Glacier. What better way to appreciate this natural wonder? You’ll even enhance your visit learning about the Columbia Icefield, how the glacier has changed and the thrill of driving up the moraine deposits to reach the glacier.
Athabasca Glacier: A picturesque waterfall awaits at Athabasca Falls. At only 75 feet tall, the rushing Athabasca River tumbles over a wide ledge into a tight canyon - making Athabasca Falls one of the most powerful waterfalls in the Canadian Rockies. Learn how the river and falls are fed with water from the Columbia Icefield glaciers, snowmelt from surrounding mountains and rainwater as you admire these small but mighty waters.
Lake Louise: Get ready for a showstopper. Walk down a forest path before coming up upon the unreal turquoise colour of Lake Louise popping through the trees for the first time. After this stunning first-time glance, admire the turquoise waters of Lake Louise and the Victoria Glacier with its scenic mountain backdrop. Be amazed by the glacier-fed waters fringed by high peaks, deep forests and overlooked by Victoria Glacier and palatial hotel.
Banff: Uncover how Banff is in a league of its own. Stroll through the downtown lined with historic buildings as majestic mountains stand tall in the distance. This is your chance to visit the iconic sites and the local spots on a guided tour around town. Stop at Bow Falls for great sightseeing opportunities of the river and the falls. At Surprise Corner, named for its spectacular, surprising views from Buffalo Street, capture a photo of another unique vantage point.
Vancouver: Unlock the diverse living cultures of the Northwest Coast at The Bill Reid Gallery, the only public gallery in Canada dedicated to contemporary Indigenous Northwest Coast Art. Explore the gallery’s in-house collection, special exhibitions and programs that build bridges between Indigenous and settler populations established by the Bill Reid Foundation in 2008 to celebrate the Haida master artist, Bill Reid (1920 - 1998). On a private, guided tour, learn about Reid’s work as an acclaimed master goldsmith, carver, sculptor, writer, broadcaster, mentor and community activist while viewing his art. Your visit directly supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities.
Kamloops: Savour every moment of a Stays with Stories experience at The South Thompson Inn in Kamloops. Once home to a thoroughbred racing stable, this riverfront property still has the original brick manor and carriage houses. You’ll love the historic feel of the Inn as you kickback in one of their fireside Adirondack chairs.
Vancouver: Mouthwatering Indian-inspired food and an inspiring family story await at Maan Farms. Get a peek at local farming learning how Maan Farms began producing cole crops, but soon shifted to growing the strawberries, raspberries and blueberries for which they became famous. From one small berry stand, Maan Farms has grown into a place with something for everyone. Enjoy a local Indian lunch of family recipes with an experience on the farm (seasonal) ranging from U-pick during berry season, behind the scenes winery tour or fall pumpkin patch exploration. You’ll love getting a glimpse of what rural farm life looks like and seeing first-hand different cultures that make up Canada as a melting pot.

For the cost of near A$1,000 per day, most lunches and dinners were not covered. Part of itinerary was to drop us off at a supermarket to buy meals, not ideal if your travelling solo. My tour had 40 people . Go for tours that have a max of 25.
