HAIDA GWAII + INSIDE PASSAGE
June 24 – July 3, 2024 (10 Days)
Travel to Haida Gwaii through the incredibly scenic Inside Passage on M.V. Northern Expedition, BC Ferries’ newest vessel and unmistakably more than ferry. The route north to Prince Rupert leads through a narrow maze of channels, passes, and reaches. Snow and ice coat the peaks of the mountains, and their shoulders plunge to the tideline. Keep your eyes peeled for a whale or dolphin in Queen Charlotte Sound and you might even see a white-coated Kermode bear on Princess Royal Island’s lengthy shoreline.
Chosen as one of National Geographic’s 20 Best Trips 2015, the serenity and cultural richness of Haida Gwaii make it a one-of-a kind, unforgettable destination. Tour the Haida Heritage Centre, enjoy a Traditional Haida Feast in Roberta Olson’s private home and see landmarks Balancing Rock and the amazing Interactive Rock Circle at Crystal Cabins Gallery. Travel through Tow Hill Provincial Park’s rain forest to Hiellen Longhouse Village, be entertained by a storytelling and song performance and stroll majestic North Beach complete with a driftwood bonfire social hour.
This trip of a lifetime includes a Grizzly Bear Tour on a 100 passenger catamaran to see the bears and cubs in the wild pristine wilderness of the Khutzeymateen Valley, Canada’s only Grizzly Bear Sanctuary. Watch grizzlies interact in their natural environment in one of the highest concentrations of Grizzly bears in North America.
