Nothing beats the thrill of seeing wild and winged creatures in their natural habitats. In BC, we are blessed to be able to see wildlife all around us. Book a tour with one of the province’s many knowledgeable and experienced guides to make a deeper connection. Guides know the prime viewing spots, and going with a professional ensures your safety and the safety of the animals, plus you get the added advantage of their expertise and insight.

Hire a local guide for your best chance to spot whales breeching the watery surface, birds taking flight from forested nests, and grizzly bears roaming in a grassy sanctuary. Wherever you travel in BC, there are wildlife encounters to be had. Explore a new part of the province and learn about its residents, both human and animal.
