Our Story

From a passion project to Canada's premier adventure company

2010 2014 2018 2023

Founded in 2010 by a group of passionate outdoor enthusiasts, Canada Explorer began with a simple mission: to share the breathtaking beauty and diverse experiences of Canada with travelers from around the world.

What started as a small operation offering guided tours in British Columbia has grown into one of Canada's most trusted adventure tourism companies, with experiences spanning from the Atlantic to the Pacific and up to the Arctic Circle.

Throughout our journey, we've remained committed to our core values of authenticity, sustainability, and exceptional service. We believe that the best travel experiences not only showcase stunning landscapes but also connect visitors with the rich culture, history, and people that make Canada truly special.

Today, Canada Explorer is proud to help thousands of travelers each year create unforgettable memories across our beautiful country. Whether you're seeking adrenaline-pumping adventures, tranquil natural escapes, or vibrant urban experiences, our team is dedicated to crafting the perfect Canadian journey for you.
