We were two Belgian families with no experience both with canoeing and camping, but our guide Mason ('amazing Mason') took us under his wings. It resulted in a great trip (good food, nice views and some adventure). Thanks a lot!
Algonquin Park 3-Day Canoe Trip - D

Well managed and organized; driving excellent; hotels ok; your rating mentions meals but these were not included in the price; itinerary was good. I would have liked to have learned more about Inuvialuit culture and language in Tukyoyuktuk but we did learn much recent history and got a tour of the hamlet. We also learned about traditional clothing and a bit about food, though I would have liked to learn more. We learned about some current issues - from someone who had been instrumental in gaining better advantages and conditions over the years and in confronting the scandal of the residential schools
