Make Your Own Royal Visit in British Columbia

Travelzoo, a global travel deals company, is sharing its guide to the great deals, following the visit of the royal family in British Columbia.

British Columbia welcomes Prince William and Dutchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton this weekend, along with an introduction to its wonderful cities and astonishing islands, reported by The Huffington Post.

Today, U.K tourists are the second largest set of inbound visitors to Canada with an increase of 10 percent in 2016. According to a recent Travelzoo Canada survey, 37 percent of Canadians stated that they were more likely to visit the U.K because of a better rate of the British pound versus the Canadian dollar.

William and Kate is set to begin their trip in Victoria, a city known for whale watching. The couple will then proceed to Vancouver, where they will stop at Telus Gardens in downtown Vancouver, home of the famous Stanley Park.

Where to Stay

There is a pricey hotel near Stanley Park, which offers up to half off for travel into March or find a savings of around $100 with breakfast, bottle of wine and parking at this downtown inn.

Dine Like a King

Enjoy a half-price lunch at Vancouver's fine dining at Bauhaus or relish a tasting for two at Sai Woo with their delectable 7-course tasting menu.

Be Like a Princess

To get a fresh and glowing skin just like Kate, try West Vancouver's first-rate spa with 60% off massage and facial services.

Try Out of Town

Apart from Vancouver, the royal family is also exploring the best of British Columbia. 40% off stay is offered this fall in a peaceful seaside resort near Vancouver. Enjoy a $69 per night in a beach front room at Shorewater resort, where you can check out the ravishing views of the Georgia Strait and the mountains. If you are deeply aiming for luxurious experience, visit Sooke Harbour House. It costs $129 a night in the fall.
