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.
It's my pleasure to say a little about my experience with Diane Ross with Kingsbridge Travel.
Our recent trip to Europe was diverse and somewhat complex. To complicate matters further,we were traveling with another couple. So many moving parts! Hotel reservations, car rentals, tours, you name it, Diane handled it all. We had a lovely, memorable trip to London, Normandy, Germany and a fabulous river cruise on the Danube with Uniworld. With Diane's help and guidance our trip went so smoothly. Traveling , as fun as it is, comes with some angst. Diane absolutely saw to it that our trip was all and more than we'd hoped for.
