Canada is the ideal place to spend some quality time with family and/or friends. It is bursting with adventure and activities but it’s a huge country so rather then spending a lot of time on the road we suggest you focus on three superb locations – Vancouver, the west coast of Vancouver Island (Tofino/Ucluelet) and Whistler. Between them they offer a fantastic mix of city, coast and mountains, and an excellent selection of activities – cycling, kayaking, ziplining, whitewater rafting and wildlife watching to name but a few. However, these are also great spots for a bit of down time – a leisurely waterfront stroll, or a long, al fresco lunch watching the world go by – so even for the less adrenaline-driven members of the group there is plenty to enjoy. Additionally, the distances between them aren’t too great so you get to maximise your time in each destination, reconnect with each other and rediscover all the things you enjoy doing together.
