    Andrew

    Asked on January 13th, 2026

    Does this tour include Cathedral grove? What is difference between Vancouver island premium tour and Vancouver island Discovery tour?

    Tour Details
    • Discover Canada ToursOperatorWritten January 2026

      Unfortunately, a stop at Cathedral Grove is not included in the tour.

      There is no difference between the Vancouver Island Premium Tour and the Vancouver Island Discovery Tour.
      The two listings are for the exact same tour with the same experience, itinerary, and inclusions. It's showing twice because the platform supports multiple authorized sales partners, and in this case both partners are offering the same tour through the same system. There's no difference in the tour itself, so you can confidently book either option and you'll receive the same experience with us.
