‘Discerning travellers recognize that they are going to get the most value from their travel budget by exploring Canada this year’
The Canadian dollar hit a 13-year low this week and every indication is that there is no recovery in sight for the deep-diving Canadian currency in 2016. The heavily depleted value of the Canadian dollar means international visitors could save as much as 30% on Canadian travel experiences this year.
Considering this is the most favorable Canadian exchange rate international travellers have witnessed in more than a decade, it comes as no surprise that savvy explorers are excited about the prospect of visiting this expansive and experience-rich country at a deeply discounted rate.
“Our 2016 inquiries already show that discerning international travellers recognize that they are going to get the most value from their travel budget by exploring Canada this year,” explains Dr. Russell Markel, Founder and President of British Columbia’s leading sailing operator, Outer Shores Expeditions.
Canada has long had a reputation as one of the most enthralling places in the world to visit and guests consistently rank their experiences in the destination as one of the best on the planet.
“We hear it all the time when guests come aboard Passing Cloud to explore the wildlife, wilderness and cultures of Canada’s wild Pacific Coast,” notes Markel. “As an example, we’ll be out kayaking or visiting the legendary Haida Watchmen and they consistently remark upon just how rich and beautiful the travel experience is. Many wonder aloud why it took them so long to finally visit Canada.”
Value Adds in 2016
While space aboard Outer Shores Expeditions’ 70-foot classic wooden schooner is quickly filling up for 2016, travellers can still book experiences in Pacific Rim National Park, Haida Gwaii Archipelago, Canada’s Great Bear Sea, Gulf Islands National Park, and the Great Bear Rainforest.
In addition to providing guests the opportunity to discover a magnificent part of Canada, Outer Shores value adds for the new 2016 expedition season include onboard experts on select sailings, such as wildlife photographer James Thompson, archaeologist Denis St. Claire, and ecologist Spencer Wood.
