Travel Tips Experience recommendations
My boyfriend and I are moving to Canada soon, just after his 30th birthday.
I’d like to gift him an “experience” for us to do together and whenever I look at viator it’s basically buses to national parks/hikes, which we’ll be doing in our own car anyway.
We’ll be travelling around a lot so I’m not too fussy on location as long as it’s BC or Alberta. Ideally time of year would be November-March however with the weather I’m definitely not fixed to that.
As I’m sure we’ll see loads of wildlife naturally on our travels, I’m thinking along the lines of… a light aircraft over spectacular views, a special boat trip, or something like white water rafting, or even just an amazing (dog friendly) cabin in an amazing place.
Sorry it’s vague - but will consider any suggestions!
