Grizzly Watching
Have you ever wanted to spend your vacation up close and personal with a grizzly bear? Great Bear Nature Tours is one of the many lodges that provide that service. Great Bear, located in British Columbia, is actually a lodge built on a floating barge. The lodge can handle up to ten guests in what the Wall Street Journal calls rustic but upscale accommodations in double rooms that begin at a rate of $1,418 per night, including bear watching tours.
Although bear hunting still brings tourists to Canada, bear watching is a growing attraction. On a bear watching tour the guide, who is often unarmed, will take you close enough to get a good view of a grizzly in the wild. In fact, one of the favorite tours allows you to watch bears swipe at salmon as they swim upstream to spawning grounds.
While bear watching sounds dangerous, bear attacks are not common. However, just to be careful many tour guides carry pepper spray. Tour guides say they are able to keep tour members safe by watching the bears and reading their body movements.
