Itinerary:
Days 1-3 Vancouver
Fly into Vancouver and spend the first few days of your trip exploring this vibrant city. In the downtown area, you’ll find superb shopping and an absorbing restaurant scene, with views at every turn of the surrounding shimmering snow-capped peaks.
Day 4 Vancouver to Whistler
Take a two hour coach transfer to the world-famous resort of Whistler. Enjoy a stroll through the delightful village centre before dinner in one of the resort’s exceptional restaurants.
Days 5-7 Whistler activities
Your winter playground awaits! Take to the skies for an exciting helicopter ride to see breathtaking views of Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains and the captivating winter backdrop. Meet the local huskies on an authentic dogsledding tour – after harnessing the playful dogs and mastering the commands, whisk your own sled through spectacular snowy scenes. If a little rest is required after all this activity, snuggle down with a hot chocolate or visit the nearby Scandinave Spa to relax in the
steaming hot pools.
Days 8-10 Whistler skiing
A visit to Whistler during the winter months wouldn’t be complete without exploring its diverse ski and snowboard terrain. Spread across two magnificent mountains, connected by the ingenious Peak 2 Peak gondola, the resort boasts runs to suit all abilities and your Whistler & Blackcomb Ski Lift Pass gives you unlimited access to all ski areas. On your last day, bring your enthralling week in Whistler to a close with an exciting après-ski snowmobiling tour with fondue dinner.
Day 11 Whistler to Whitehorse
After a final morning in Whistler, take a coach transfer directly to Vancouver airport. A 2½ hour flight from there takes you to Whitehorse, capital of Yukon Territory and incredible opportunities to view the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis).
Days 12-13 Northern Lights viewing
Your trip to Yukon includes three nights in the centre of Whitehorse. During the winter months, Yukon offers some of the best Aurora viewing in the world and you will have the opportunity to be dazzled by
the dancing lights every night of your stay. Marvel as the shimmering neon colours take over the dark night sky and a magical light show unfolds overhead. During the days explore Whitehorse on a half day city tour or perhaps take a dogsledding tour.

Enjoy your last morning in Canada’s frozen north before transferring to the airport for your flight home.
