Where to Stay: Shangri-La Vancouver

Imagine arriving via private helicopter to the mouth of an ice cave,guarded by frozen stalactites, and being guided through an aqua-hued labyrinth of cathedral-like ice chambers, surrounded by deep snow and ice caps. That’s exactly the awe-inspiring sensory experience you’ll find at Shangri-La Vancouver. The resort partners with Head-Line Mountain Holidays to deliver once-in-a-lifetime adventures that lead travelers to ultra-rare, undisclosed,top-secret locations for thrill-seeking experiences beyond their wildest dreams. To “cap off” the sensory exploration, there’s a private mixology class featuring a piece of glacier ice collected from the adventure.
