A wildlife watching tour in Canada typically involves traveling to various locations across the country to observe a variety of animals in their natural habitats. The specific animals you may see will depend on the location and time of year, but some of the most common animals to observe on a wildlife watching tour in Canada include bears, moose, elk, caribou, whales, and marine wildlife such as sea otters and seals.
The tour is usually led by an experienced guide who can provide information about the animals you’ll be observing and their behavior, as well as ensure your safety. The guide may take you on guided hikes or drives to observe the animals from a safe distance, or you may take a boat or plane tour to observe marine wildlife.
The tour may include visits to national parks, such as Banff and Jasper in Alberta or Algonquin in Ontario, as well as remote locations such as Churchill, Manitoba, which is known as the “Polar Bear Capital of the World.” The tour may also include visits to coastal areas, such as Tofino and Ucluelet on Vancouver Island, to observe marine wildlife.
