Arriving in Vancouver

Entering Canada by Air, Land or Sea

We advise that guests entering Canada by plane, car, or boat ensure that their passports are valid and ready to go. This rule is also applicable to US citizens that are planning on re-entering in the US via car or boat. If you have any questions or concerns regarding international travel feel free to visit border security websites for both Canada and USA.

For guests who must overnight in Vancouver either on their way to our lodge or on your way home, we recommend that you stay at one of Peregrine Lodge’s preferred hotels.

Be sure to mention to the concierge that you will be fishing with Peregrine Lodge so that you can receive our special rates. It is our pleasure to assist you in making your reservation for you, let us know and we will take care of the details!

If you would like us to take care of your Vancouver accommodation booking, please email us at info@peregrinelodge.com.
