President's Welcome
Letter from the President
Dear Traveller;
Welcome to our website. We look forward to the opportunity to host you on one of our upcoming Classic Canadian Tours.
We are setting out on a milestone year, as 2025 is our 20th anniversary. This June, the Yukon Solstice Tour is our special 20th-year expedition and will feature the best of the Yukon as spring gives way to summer. Space is limited, so check out this adventure and consider joining us for the longest daylight weekend of the year.
The Northern Lights are active this year and space is still available on both our February 7 and March 7 departures.
June is also the month of our popular Grizzly Bear West Coast adventure tours. These one-day visits to the Khutzeymateen Valley are a wildlife festival, and the scenery is stunning.
Our signature day tours to Churchill, Manitoba, are now available with departures from Calgary, Edmonton and Saskatoon this fall. The Polar Bears were plentiful and healthy in 2024, and we’re looking forward to our 20th polar bear season.
Sincerely,
Bill Lamberton, President
Classic Canadian Tours
