Canadian seasons are short and the good winter activities fill up inside them. Here are the 4 best, with current prices and what makes each different, so you can book before the window shuts.
Banff to Athabasca Glacier by Ice Explorer and Glacier Skywalk, with lunch and big Icefields Parkway views, from $291.17.
“It was pretty awesome being up on a glacier. We hit it on a warm day; hat, gloves, and warm coat were not necessary. I highly recommend this experience. We were able to FaceTime our grandson from the glacier and he was thrilled to see it.”
Go snowshoeing on Whistler’s Medicine Trail through the Callaghan Valley, with medicinal herb tea, snacks, and a small group tour.
“It was an absolutely beautiful experience! Highly recommend for someone new to town and want to explore! Our tour guide was amazing and super knowledgeable as well!”
Walk Victoria’s Chinatown and harbour, then add snack and drink stops plus a short ferry ride, for an easy winter half day.
“Dave was our tour guide. We had an amazing time. He was knowledgeable and engaging. The food and beer was good too.”
Winter Victoria whale-watching by Zodiac, with certified marine naturalist, whale-call hydrophone, and full warm cruiser suits for a 3-hour adventure.
“This tour was fun and enjoyable, even in the rain! We walked around town, taste tested a range of food and, learnt so much about the history of the area. It felt good to support local businesses.”
