Toronto to Algonquin in one day. Canoe Canoe Lake, swim near Popcorn Island, hike to Ragged Falls, and spot wildlife.
“We started from Ripleys aquarium a little late, as guest were delayed at a previous pick-up location due to high traffic caused by an aweful accident. However, our guide Mike did all he could to get us out of the city into the national park. Unfortunately the AC stopped working at some point, so it got quite warm. The drive is long, but I think it's worth the time. We had a lunch at Canoe Lake (not included) and did a canoe tour. Then we went to another lake were we could enjoy the cool water. We went to the visitor center of alongquin park (very good exhibition) and had…”
Spot wildlife in Jasper National Park, hike Maligne Lake, and learn why Medicine Lake is changing. Small-group tour with pickup in 6 hours.
“The activity was great, and we managed to see lots of wildlife - we started off by seeing some beautiful Elk, followed by a brown, black bear, which walked alongside the mini-bus. Amazing to see!!! During the hike to Moose Lake, we were lucky enough to spend some time watching a moose grazing in the forest. Our guide Jamie was great, this always enhances a tour in my opinion - he was very knowledgeable about the area, clearly enjoys what he does, and had a sense of humour to go with it. Fab day - would recommend! Sam and Matt :-)”
Car-free hiking from Montreal to Mont-Tremblant National Park, with a guide briefing, forest picnic time, Chute-aux-rats falls, and viewpoints.

Guided hike in Jacques-Cartier National Park from Quebec City with lunch, local tastings, and round-trip transport for small groups.

Guided Banff hike with lunch, small-group pace, poles, and round-trip transport, choosing among four iconic trails in the Rockies.
“Unable to go- the tour guide told me it was a very difficult hike and I was under the impression it was a moderate level as stated. So I lost out on my money! Not very happy about that.”
Banff e-bike to Johnston Canyon in a small group, with a car-free Bow Valley Parkway ride and guided walk to Lower Falls Bridge.
“Terrific tour all around with White Mountain Adventures. Nothing but positive things to say about our tour with Megs. We met right downtown Banff. Left on-time and drove out to Johnston Canyon to beat the crowds. Informative and fast-paced tour of the canyon...our group was pretty athletic so Megs tailored the hike to our ability and we were able to hike up the canyon quite a ways. If your group is less active, you'll still see all the canyon highlights. Megs is flexible and helpful throughout the entire day. The bike ride along the old highway into Banff past Vermillion Lakes was great fun. E-bikes are top notch. Safety a…”

Vancouver rainforest waterfall hike with a suspension bridge, small-group guide, and hotel pickup. 9 km, about 4 hours, $62.
“Omg! A must if you like hiking. Adrian was our guide and the communication immediately was perfect. He picked us up directly at our hotel where we joined 3 other people. He drove us to the trail which was about 45 minutes away. The trail was beautiful with us picking huckleberries directly from the bushes and eating them along the way. The hike takes you up about 300 stairs along the way to the chilly water and waterfalls. I’d definitely do this again”
