Uncover Canada's westernmost province...

Canada has become renowned for its welcoming atmosphere and incredible sights - a perfect combination for an unforgettable escape.

It comes alive with boundless beauty and rewards all visitors with everlasting memories. Its travel experiences cover the very best of this compelling country, from bear-watching to beaches, and culture to cool neighbourhoods.

British Columbia offers something for every luxury traveller who's looking at a Canada holiday, but what will you discover?

Action & Adventure

Get your heart racing with some of Canada's most spectacular adventure travel thrills, from the snow-covered scenes of Whistler that are perfect for skiing and snowboarding, to hiking and rafting through the natural playground of Bella Coola (there's even the annual Bella Coola Rodeo if you visit at the right time)!
