About the trip

This G Adventures small-group tour begins in Victoria, where the historic streets meet waterfront views. Early warm-ups include a welcome dinner and chance to acquaint with the group. Next, a First Nations welcome leads to planting trees in the rainforest, marking a tangible connection with the local landscape and culture.

From there, a water taxi whisks participants to the Broken Group Islands' off-grid lodge. Days here mix sea kayaking through silent marine passages with boat trips that offer glimpses of coastal wildlife. You can opt to exchange a Zodiac whale watch for a paddle to Chocolate Beach—two very different ways to meet the water. The final stop on Salt Spring Island includes sampling local brewery treats and meeting rescued wildlife, rounding out a week founded on thoughtful travel and measured pace.

Group sizes are kept to around a dozen for ease of movement in these largely wild spaces, with local guides and a CEO to keep logistics smooth without intrusion. The balance of hotel stays and shared lodge accommodation reflects an appreciation for both comfort and immersion.
