An important feature of our British Columbia wildlife tour is the limited group size, as nature expeditions are best experienced with smaller sized groups of travelers.
In the wild valleys of the Coast Range on Canada’s far western edge, some of the planet’s oldest and tallest trees rise along salmon-studded rivers that rush to the Pacific. Thousand-year-old cedars and Sitka spruce soaring 350 feet into the clouds provide shelter for the white spirit bear of native legend. Here, too, are grizzlies and wolves, and eagles nest in ancient branches. At sea, humpback whales ply the jade-green fjords.
