Sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery.
If you’re an island local you know just how lucky you are to live in one of the most beautiful places in British Columbia. If you’re a visitor to Vancouver Island you are in for a treat. Islanders enjoy staycations and revel in nostalgia. With so many unique cities on the island it’s hard to pick a favourite and often driving can take away from actually seeing the sights along the way.
Not only is it affordable and convenient to travel by bus, it’s also one of the best ways to soak in the scenery. The new Vancouver Island Connector is a great option for a summer road trip. Travel in style on a luxury motor coach with large windows for a panoramic view and lots of storage space for your luggage. You can sit back, relax and let someone else do the driving, while you take in the spectacular views and maybe see a critter or two.
Visit some local favourite places like Chemainus, enjoy dinner and a play at the iconic Chemainus Theatre or take a stroll through the quaint little town to admire the well-known murals and curiosity shops, check out the beach in Qualicum or stop off in Coombs to explore the Coombs Old Country Market and see the goats on the roof. Discover new sites or rediscover old ones on a journey through the west coast of Vancouver Island. VI Connector offers daily departures from Victoria all the way to Port Hardy, and a convenient transfer option at Nanaimo, Departure Bay Terminal onto the Tofino Bus for passengers who want to visit the island’s tropical oasis.
