Gulf Escape Vacation


Independent Vacations discovering the Canadian Gulf Islands,
Vancouver Island, and the Queen Charlotte Islands

You Choose the Self-drive Island Vacation.
We Take Care of the Details.

Simply tell us what kind of Island getaway you want and when you’d like to go and we’ll plan and book a self-guided tour just for you.

We’ll pre-book your accommodation, ferry travel and optional car rental and provide you with a detailed Gulf Escapes ‘On the Road’ itinerary package. In it, you’ll find step by step travel instructions with daily mileages and enroute travel times, our ‘insider tips’ on the best places to visit, current events, exhibits and festivals, and all necessary travel documents such as maps, British Columbia information guides, vouchers and more.

Our 30 years of experience planning West Coast tours, and our exclusive partnerships with BC Ferries, Thrifty Car Rental and a host of signature B&Bs and hotels throughout the Islands means your vacation will be as easy and comfortable as you expect. And because you’re doing the driving, this vacation won’t hurt your pocketbook.
