ITINERARY
Day 1 – Welcome to the West Coast - Your Canada Vacation Begins!
A friendly guide welcomes you to Vancouver as you begin your ski adventure package. Board your motor-coach and begin your scenic transfer along the picturesque Sea to Sky highway to Whistler.
Upon arriving in Whistler, it becomes obvious why it is named among the world’s best ski resorts. Twin peaks with premier terrain are yours to discover. Whistler Resort is also famous for its nightlife from exciting pubs and nightclubs to gourmet restaurants.
Choose from hotels with ski-in/ski-out access offering maximum time on the slopes or central village locations offering the best access to the Village. Comfortable rooms and friendly service are guaranteed on vacations in Canada.
Provide us with your details and standard of skiing we can have your skis ready at Summit Rental for your arrival - included in your package! Exchange your equipment anytime to suit the conditions of your day. Complimentary slope side storage allows you to rest easy during your afternoon snack or pint.
Day 2 & 3 – Ski Whistler on your Canada Vacation Package
Beat the crowds and be one of the first to glide down the mountain! The Fresh Tracks early bird breakfast gives you unique access to Whistler Mountain following a full delicious breakfast!
Take advantage of the complimentary Whistler Blackcomb tour one of these mornings (or both!). Your orientation host passes along useful information about the mountain and takes you to the best runs of the day.
Whistler Blackcomb features 8100 acres of terrain, more than 200 trails, and access to 3 glaciers, 37 lifts, and 12 alpine bowls. In 2008, Whistler Blackcomb welcomes the addition of a peak to peak gondola. The widest and highest in the world, this gondola will ensure the best views while you maximize your time on two of the most spectacular mountains in the world - only on vacations in Canada!
Whistler Village comes alive when the sun goes down. Check out one of the many heated patios or turn up the heat yourself with a night of dancing to live music.
Day 4 – Ski Whistler on your Canada Vacation Package
Enjoy a full day of mountain hopping from Whistler to Blackcomb. Enjoy the stunning views from the peak to peak gondola!
Choosing a restaurant in Whistler Village can be difficult with all the choices. Let our restaurant guides help you choose between the best place to grab a pint and the best place to dress in your nicest clothes and enjoy fine dining.
Day 5 – Dogsledding on Vacations in Canada
Leave your skis at the hotel today and experience the thrill of dogsledding! Let your team of canine friends lead you through towering old growth cedar forests and sparkling frozen rivers to Canadian Dogsled Adventure’s mountain igloo. Strap on your snow shoes for a invigorating hike to Alexander Falls, one of BC’s grandest waterfalls. Return to the igloo and let your dedicated team of dogs take you back through the Callaghan Valley.
Share your stories tonight over dinner and hot chocolate.
Day 6 – Early Morning and Spectacular Runs on your Canada Vacation Package
The Fresh Tracks breakfast is so great you can’t help but return for more! Be one of the first this morning to make your mark on the newly fallen snow.
Today is another day to ski Whistler Blackcomb. Get in those double black
diamonds this afternoon before taking a well deserved break in the Village.
Experience new cuisine on vacations in Canada - the West Coast is famous for its Japanese cuisine. Visit Sushi Village - locals tend to go for the saki more than the sushi!
Day 7 – Moonlit Snowmobiling
Ski vacations in Canada are the ideal opportunity to perfect your skills. Give yourself one last challenge at that double black diamond run. Keep going on the hills or retire early to rest or explore Whistler village.
Bound to be a memorable night on your Canada vacation package - the moon lights the way on your guided Night Riders Snowmobile excursion. Experienced guides lead you into Fitzsimmons Creek Valley, a mid mountain playground. See what your machines can do as you test their agility and power. Gain a new perspective of the mountain on this nocturnal adventure.
Day 8 – A Free Day in Whistler on your Canada Vacation Package
One last early morning at Whistler’s Roundhouse for breakfast and you’re last opportunity to be one of the first down Whistler Mountain.
While out on the hills today stop by at Chic Pea for pizza, cinnamon buns and lots more or if a home-style stew is more what you’re looking for then try out Horstman Hut.
Day 9 – Whistler & Fondue
Today on your Canada ski vacation, take the opportunity to fit in any runs you haven’t tried yet or take a few last runs down your new favorites. When in need of a snack, warm up in Crystal Hut’s cozy log cabin and savor a Belgian Waffle!
Included in your package is reservations at the Bavaria Restaurant, a true piece of European culture right in the heart of Whistler. Enjoy a delectable fondue dinner from a traditional Swiss cheese with fresh bread to a decadent Belgian chocolate with fruits and pastries. The warm food is comforting after a day on the slopes.
Day 10 – Depart with Fond Memories
Much too soon, you leave the clean air and spectacular sights of Whistler behind as your Canada vacation package comes to an end. Wind down the sea to sky highway on your way to the airport for your flight home.
