  • How to Travel Safely and Responsibly

British Columbia’s big backyard inspires introspective personal journeys and unbridled adventures. Our cities, set on the doorstep of the wild, make it easy to step into nature and explore the endless possibilities of the outdoors. Our people connect explorers with unexpected moments that renew the human spirit.

Science has proven that time spent immersed in nature can make us happier, healthier, and less stressed. We call that The British Columbia Effect.
