Do you want to be a tourist, or do you want to be a traveller?
There’s a bigger difference than you think.
While tourists want to experience as many new things as they can fit into their comfort zone, travellers seek authenticity, adventure, and thrills galore.
If that sounds like you, you should look into booking your next getaway with .
Founded in 1997 by two entrepreneurs who wanted to showcase truly Canadian experiences in the wild outdoors, Moose Travel Network is an adventure tour and transportation network that guides individuals and groups throughout the most stunning destinations in Western Canada.
With 13 tours departing from either Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»or Banff, the wallet-friendly tour company offers travel packages everywhere from the rugged Rocky Mountains and Whistler to Banff and Jasper National Parks, Victoria, Tofino, and Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Island.
If you’re looking to travel somewhere simply to snap a picture in your best fit for Instagram, maybe look elsewhere – Moose Travel Network isn’t just about bringing you to these locales for less, they’re about offering riveting once-in-a-lifetime adventures once you’re there.
In the summertime, for instance, you can adventure Whistler, where you could go ziplining on the longest zipline in North America. If you’re looking for more of a trek, Moose Travel will take you to the Canadian Rockies where you will explore the surreal landscape of the famous Moraine Lake, spot elk, deer, bears, big horned sheep, and beavers as you go animal sightseeing, and experience the gushing spray from the Athabasca Falls as the glacial waters head downstream.
And that’s all in one trip.
In Tofino, you’ll have the opportunity to go whale watching, take a surfing lesson, visit hot springs, go sea kayaking, hike along the coastal trails, and experience the incredible landscape firsthand. Most of their itineraries also include special Indigenous cultural experiences, such as a guided tour of an Indigenous heritage site or a First Nations meal.
Primarily designed for those ages 18 to 39 (and young at heart), Moose Travel Network does things a little differently to ensure you’re getting the best prices on the market. Perfect for backpackers, students, and budget-conscious adventurers, their tours include dormitory-style hostel accommodation and transportation in 13 to 24-seat mini-buses. Prices include the services of a driver/guide, National Park fees, and select activities and meals. By traveling together you’ll save money and also get to make new friends with like-minded individuals who value travel, adventure, and connecting with nature in the same way as you.
And for those that prefer more privacy, Moose Travel Network also offers non-accommodated options on all tours, so that you can arrange alternative accommodation in private rooms, hotels, or wherever else you choose.
