Vancouver Island, off Canada’s Pacific Coast, is known for its mild climate and thriving arts community. It is part of the Canadian province of British Columbia. The southern part of Vancouver Island is the only part of British Columbia or Western Canada to lie south of the 49th Parallel, along with most of the southern Gulf Islands and minor offshore islands. This area has one of the warmest climates in Canada, and since the mid-1990s has been mild enough in a few areas to grow subtropical Mediterranean crops such as olives and lemons.
Vancouver Island has been the homeland to many indigenous peoples for thousands of years. The island was explored by British and Spanish expeditions in the late 18th century.
We just returned from Paris and I are thanking you for the incredible job you did in putting our trip together.
We are very appreciative for everything you did for us and everything went very well. We’re safe and sound back home thinking about the joy we experienced. We loved the tours, the museums, the hotel and its staff … everything just perfect!!!! The pleasure was mine in working with you Diane, you responded quickly to every question, set up transportation and tours I would have never imagined. You prepared us both very well for our first to Paris, everything went so smoothly. Thank you again!
