What you can expect

  • If you want to experience Vancouver Island's most beautiful scenery, set out for a fun-filled day with a personal guided tour to see the island's nature at its best. A scenic drive lets you see Englishman River Falls, the Little Qualicum Falls, Cathedral Grove, and the country village of Coombs.

    After you meet your guide with a pickup from your hotel, a comfortable SUV takes you out on your ride up the island, over the Malahat summit, and past Nanaimo as you make your way to the Coombs district. Make a stop at the Englishman River falls for an amazing hike to both the upper and lower falls and some terrific photo opportunities.

    When you arrive in Coombs, pay a visit to the County Market for a look at the local shops. Later on, head to the Little Qualicum Falls, enjoy another breathtaking hike, and then pay a visit to the Cathedral Grove, an enchanting rainforest with some of the oldest and largest trees in the world. Take a brief journey through the enchanting forests before the time comes for your return to Victoria.
