Vancouver Island Tourism
...provides free travel guide and info. centres!
Vancouver Island Tourism provides a system of free tourist information centres, situated throughout the length and breadth of the island. They are there for your use, whether you walk in personally, e-mail them or check out their websites. Most are staffed during the tourist months and are free for you to ask questions and gather information. The visitor in his car or the hiker in his climbing boots can step inside and find a complex amount of material for their use: booklets, pamphlets, tours, hotels, B and B's, camps and more...and a human to answer your questions! A fantastic resource and a real plus in the building of the Vancouver Island Tourism resource package.  Another boon for Vancouver Island Tourism is a free, online virtual guide book, which is available from "Tourism Vancouver Island'", a part of the "Tourism British Columbia" group. There are several visitor guide books to choose from, on different subjects. You can see these online guides and make a choice by going here:
