Vancouver Airport’s South regional airfield
5 or 6 Days from $3995
View Dates & PricesIn the heart of British Columbia just an hour flight north of Vancouver, Bear Camp offers the Chilcotin region’s most hospitable and unique accommodation experience. Situated at the headwaters of the Chilko River, the waterfront camp is comprised of deluxe safari tents built on top of wildlife viewing platforms and a spacious dining area and lounge overlooking the river. Exploring the best of what the region has to offer, this multi-day adventure touches on a variety of adventure disciplines: Kayaking, canoeing or stand up paddleboarding on a crystal clear lake, horseback riding in snow-capped mountain ranges, hiking endless trails, biking remote roads and abundant double track, fishing for record trout, wildlife viewing—grizzly bear sightings are common on many trips—and inflatable kayaking or rafting a glacial waterway.

“This was an experience of a lifetime! Out of this world.”.
Renate Felgentreff ~ Westminster, CA
“It was one of the best holidays I’ve been on and the group dynamic was great! Excellent leadership, communication skills, high confidence, and caring for each person displayed by the guides; fabulous, comfy setting with great support services and staff; the variety of experiences (rafting; sea kayaking; boating etc.); it was FUN and one could go at one’s own pace.”
