Canada Wildlife Tours 2023/2024

Canada is a wildlife-spotting dream destination, with a multitude of magnificent species dispersed throughout the land. From bison to bears and arctic hares, this sprawling northern nation has it all. And the best way to get up close (but not too close!) and personal with these majestic creatures is on our Canada wildlife tours. Keen to admire bears in their native habitat? British Columbia’s coastal temperate rainforests are awash with black bears and grizzlies—you may even spot the rare Kermode bear. Keep a keen eye out for wolves and cougars prowling these woods. A Canada cruise tour to the remote Northwest Passage is your best bet to spot the Arctic Big Five: polar bears, beluga whales, walrus, musk ox and narwhal—or hit Baffin Island for the latter. The Rockies also hosts a plethora of spritely mountain species; caribou, moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goats roam freely around Banff and beyond.

Led by an expert local guide, our wildlife tours in Canada provide insight into the country’s intriguing native fauna. Keep scrolling to pinpoint the perfect wildlife adventure for you.

Rockies and Wilderness Walk
5 - Excellent
  • Anonymous
“We had a fabulous time. All weather's were experienced....snow, rain, heat and smoke. Our Great American Adventure guides (Audrey and Simon) were a terrific double act with a tremendous sense of fun. The food was exceptional and rapidly geared to the groups requirements.”
Memorable trip to the Canadian Rockies
5 - Excellent
  • Anonymous
“Really fantastic trip! I got to experience the totally breathtaking Canadian Rockies with a lovely group of people, and led by knowledgeable and passionate guides. The hiking is brilliant, and this trip allows you to walk on the less touristy trails and really get a taste for the wilderness. The itinerary is really well thought-out, meaning you get to walk in a few of the national parks to get a fuller and more varied sense of the landscape, and also the longer hikes are perfectly spread out with easier walking in-between. The guides worked really hard and were incredibly considerate of the group's preferences. The meals were varied and delicious, and nothing beats sitting by a campfire after a long day of hiking. Such a memorable way to see the Rockies, and definitely served to convince me that I'm going back!”
Varied trip showing off the best of the Rockies
5 - Excellent
  • Anonymous
“The Rockies are magnificent and this trip includes the famous areas around Banff and Jasper but also takes you into the mountains away from the crowds. The group was a mixture of ages but we were all quite experienced walkers. There is little flat so although the distances aren't great the ascents are strenuous but you get into the heart of the mountains. The camping was very well organised and the food was excellent.”

Canada Wildlife Tours

Highlights of Canada Wildlife Tour

  • Sail deep into the Northwest Passage on the hunt for hardy marine animals like walrus, narwhal and beluga whales. Land excursions see you meet mammals such as the musk ox.
  • Venture far off the beaten track on an adventurous Arctic Circle tour. As the polar bear capital of the world, Churchill is your best bet to spot these majestic white-fur beasts.
  • Traverse jaw-dropping Canadian Rockies trails, stopping to spot curious wildlife en route. Local residents include elk, moose, beavers, marmots and wolverines.
  • Explore the wildlife-rich temperate forests of British Columbia, where bears, muskrats, and coyotes roam. Take a side trip to Sidney to spot seals, porpoises, and killer whales.
  • Visit two countries in one trip—some of our Canada wildlife tours run from the Western Arctic Circle to Greenland.

Travel tips for Canada Wildlife Tour

  • Research the best time to spot wildlife in Canada. The best wildlife seasons are spring and fall when mammals head out to hunt on either side of their winter hibernations. Dawn and dusk tend to see more activity.
  • Be careful. Canadian wildlife can be dangerous, so it’s worth enlisting professional help. Expert guides lead all our Canada wildlife tours to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.
  • Don’t crowd around or encircle any animals; this makes them feel threatened. Remain a safe distance away and snap your photos through a telescopic lens.
  • Never feed any wildlife in Canada because handouts make the animals dependent on humans. Plus, many native animals have sensitive stomachs and may become ill.
