8 Day Victoria, Vancouver & Whistler Winter Experience

Transfer by private car from Victoria airport to your hotel. The remainder of the day is free to explore beautiful Victoria. Stay the next two nights at the Iconic Fairmont Empress, a Luxurious chateau-style hotel in downtown Victoria, overlooking the Inner Harbour.

Enjoy a free day to continue exploring Victoria. Visit Butchart Gardens in December for the Magic of Christmas event when the gardens come alive with light displays (extra charge). Or why not indulge in afternoon tea at the famous Fairmont Empress’s elegant Lobby Lounge (extra charge)
 

This morning, check-out of your hotel and transfer by seaplane to Vancouver. This afternoon and evening are free to explore this exciting city. Perhaps visit FlyOver Canada for an exhilarating flight over the Canadian countryside. Or head to Canada Place in December and participate in the fun of the Christmas markets. Stay the next two nights at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.

Enjoy a morning to discover Vancouver at your own pace. Perhaps visit Stanley Park or the famous Granville Island Public Market. This afternoon, head to Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. It’s spectacular in any season, but visit between 17 November and January 21, and be amazed by the thousands of glittering lights that transform the park into a festive wonderland. Cross the legendary Suspension Bridge, walk through a rainforest canopy and experience an adrenaline-pumping walk above the canyon with Cliffwalk.

Check-out of your hotel and transfer to Whistler by coach. The remainder of the day is free to explore this charming mountain village. Stay the next three nights at Fairmont Chateau Whistler
 

This morning, follow an old trapper’s path on a Medicine Trail snowshoe tour. Travel deep into a special ancient forest in the Callaghan Valley and hear about the history of the area. Sample healing teas from plants that grow along the trail and gaze upon giant cedar, fir and hemlock trees that provide a canopy high above. At the end of the tour, warm up by the fire with a hot drink. The remainder of the day is free to relax. 
 

Enjoy a leisurely day in Whistler Village. Sip a cup of hot chocolate or have lunch at one of the many cafés or perhaps take a ride on the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola for a birds-eye view of the surrounding mountains. This afternoon, embark on an apres tour of Blackcomb Mountain by snowmobile. Marvel at the lights of Whistler Village below as you travel high up Blackcomb and explore the mountain.
 

All good things must come to an end. Check-out of your hotel and transfer by coach to Vancouver Airport.
