Western Educational Adventures - WEA Charters is one of the only school bus charter and
14-passenger school bus charter company in Victoria BC that also offers adventure programming.
From what we know, we are the only small operator with fully certified and licensed school
busses. Our small fleet is well maintained and operated by outdoor adventure staff that are used
to working with kids. We have a 10-canoe/kayak trailer and are fully set-up for safe, logging
road travel. We focus on low-cost, affordable pricing for those looking for great service but
don't need all the bells and whistles. Our pricing is available per half hour or more, depending
on your needs. We are able to cater to school groups, class trips, non-profits and private
groups.
Often schools and teachers in Victoria struggle to afford field trips to simple places like the
museum. With school bus transportation being so expensive, teachers can sometimes only afford to
carpool or pay for one trip a year. We try and keep our costs low for non-profits and school
groups to help get kids out on more fun adventures and field trips!
While we offer services to anyone who needs it, we specialize in wilderness experiences and
transportation to and from wilderness locations such as kayak launches and trail heads. Looking
for a drop-off on the Kludahk Trail, Juan de Fuca Trail, West Coast Trail, Sayward Canoe
Circuit, Strathcona Park or other wilderness location on Vancouver Island? We can transport you
and your gear almost anywhere, we are highly experienced with travel on wilderness and forestry
roads. Planning a point-to-point sea kayak trip on Vancouver Island? We can even transport you
and your kayaks or canoes on our 10-canoe/kayak trailer.
Maybe you don't just need transportation service, maybe you would like to benefit from our
extensive wilderness experience? While our main business is summer camps and swim lessons, we
also offer private and custom outdoor adventure tours and courses. Kayak trips, canoe trips,
hiking tours, wilderness navigation skills, we do it all!
