Days 1-3 Vancouver
Fly to Vancouver and make your way to your hotel. Spend the first few days of your adventure getting acquainted with the city. Perhaps hire a bike and cycle the winding seawall, stop off Stanley Park for a picnic lunch and to see the famous totem poles. The next day, how about hopping on a shuttle to Capilano Suspension Bridge nestled in the forest, or taking the cable car up Grouse Mountain for spectacular views all the way to Seattle.

Pick up your motorhome and take the ferry to Swartz Bay, Vancouver Island. Make sure to keep your eyes peeled for humpback whales and orcas in the ocean as you go. Head to Victoria, the capital city of British Columbia, and spend a couple of days exploring its pretty streets and landscaped gardens. Perhaps head out on a whale watching cruise or visit the beautiful Butchart Gardens.
Days 6-8 Victoria to Tofino

Surrounded by untouched wilderness, secluded surf beaches and quirky bars and cafes serving amazing local delicacies, Tofino is a unique place to enjoy the Canadian countryside. This part of the world rewards the intrepid, with hot springs to be discovered, an old army plane hidden amongst ancient rainforest, and secret beaches to be found when you trek that little bit further through Pacific Rim National Park.
