TOUR SUMMARY

Discover the art of rejuvenation at the always popular Harrison Hot Springs Resort. Nestled on the south shore of Harrison Lake, this lovely hotel has been welcoming guests for over 125 years. With five indoor and outdoor natural mineral hot springs pools, plus the Healing Springs Spa, there is something to please everyone. There is lots of free time for you to relax and indulge in the hotel’s facilities. Your room in the East Tower (the newer section) has a view of Harrison Lake, and is a quick elevator ride and short walk away from the hot springs pools. On one evening, savour dinner in the elegant Copper Room with live dance music. This tour also features a scenic lunch cruise on Harrison Lake, a tour of Kilby Store Historic Site, afternoon tea at Karen’s Café, and a visit to the Sasquatch Museum with an expert speaker.

  • V BC Seniors (65 & over): $16 discount offered by BC Ferries. Please bring your BC Services Card on the tour.

  • Cancellation Policy: Up to August 25, 2025, the cancellation charge is $50 per person. From August 26 to September 25, the cancellation charge is $100 per person. From September 26 to October 16, the cancellation charge is 60% of the tour fare. After October 16, there is no refund.

  • Itinerary and Fare Changes: Our many suppliers may notify us about changes to the itinerary prior to departure and sometimes during the tour. We do our best to substitute a similar service if something cancels, but occasionally the only alternative is to provide a refund for the missed activity. Please note that if we are forced to cancel a tour component due to an issue beyond our control, the current penalties still apply if you choose to cancel the entire tour. Fuel surcharges and changes to taxes or other tour costs can occur at any time, therefore Wells Gray Tours reserves the right to increase fares due to such changes up to departure.

  • Food Allergies: You must notify us no later than at final payment if you have a food allergy. An allergy causes medical distress, a preference does not. For some allergies, please consider bringing your own snacks or food items so you are not dependent on what restaurants are able to serve.

  • Travel Insurance: A Comprehensive Insurance policy is available through Wells Gray Tours and coverage is provided by Travel Guard. Policies purchased at deposit include a waiver of the pre-existing condition clause for medical and cancellation claims, otherwise policies can be purchased no later than at final payment. This tour stays in British Columbia. While your BC Services Card may cover you for a medical issue that arises during the tour, you will probably benefit from trip cancellation and trip interruption coverage in case of illness or a mishap before or during the tour. Many other benefits such as luggage insurance are included. Medical questionnaire is not needed. Please contact us for details. If you have your own travel insurance, please read the policy carefully to be sure that you are adequately covered for cancellation, interruption, and luggage.
