    Log Cabin Algonquin Park

    Private Log Cabin Adventure at Algonquin Park

    Algonquin Provincial Park is the oldest of its kind in Canada. At 7,653 km2, Algonquin Park is more than big enough to accommodate the large numbers of nearby Ottawans and Torontonians that leave their cities in search of natural beauty and adventure. Some people camp here, while others stay nearby and drive in each day on nature hikes. However, we feel the best option is to stay in a log cabin in Algonquin Park. This authentic Landsby experience is more than just a tranquil getaway in the forest; it’s a complete experience, with hikes, guided canoeing excursions, delicious food, and access to an expert wilderness guide. Click on the link above to learn more about this experience.

    Glamping in Wawaitin Falls

    Glamping in Wawaitin Falls

    If you’re looking for a different way to get in touch with nature in Ontario, you might like to consider our glamping adventure in Wawaitin Falls (this is a sample itinerary as everything can be tailored to meet your individual needs). This experience is designed to revitalize your body and soothe your soul by helping you experience the best natural sights and sounds Wawaitin Falls has to offer. Incredible home-cooked local food, pontoon cruising, visits to a wildlife park with your personal wilderness guide, kayak tours, and so much more. Eco-tourism doesn’t get much better than this!

    Ottawa Soft Biking Guided Adventure

    Ottawa Soft Biking Adventure

    Take four days to cycle around the beautiful twin cities of Ottawa and Gatineau, riding throughout the twin cities’ stunning 600km connected cycling network. Freewheel through two of Ontario’s most beautiful cities, taking in the sights and sounds of both cities, the Rideau Canal, visiting various world-class museums along the way. This is a soft-biking adventure combined with some of the most immersive and rich cultural experiences in Ontario. If you love the idea of enjoying the freedom of the capital region’s bicycle lane network while taking part in various cultural experiences and activities, take a closer look at our Ottawa Soft Biking Guided Adventure.

    Ottawa Valley Signature Cycling Experience

    Ottawa Valley Signature Cycling Experience

    While all of our experiences offer plenty of activities, our Ottawa Valley Signature Cycling Experience takes this to the next level, with five incredible days of cycling, using the Whitewater Inn in the village of Beachburg as your base. Cycle the hidden backroads of the Ottawa Valley with your guide, taking part in wine and beer tastings along the way. A ⅗ difficulty rating means that a proficient level of fitness is required for this experience, but you certainly don’t need to be ready for the Tour de France. If you’re looking for an active adventure and hope to see as much of the Ottawa Valley as possible over several days, then this signature experience might be the perfect trip for you! If you’re looking for something a little more gentle and closer to the city, you may prefer our next experience.

    Quintessential Canada Experience

    Quintessential Canada: Waterways, wildlife, and ecosystems

    The last adventure we’d like to share with you on this guide is our Quintessential Canada Experience. If you value wilderness and nature above everything else, then this may be the trip for you. Adventure into the heart of Northern Ontario’s wilderness, enjoying a floatplane tour of the area’s hundreds of lakes and epic boreal forests. You will stay in the cozy lakefront cabin Miminiska Lodge. This is a completely customized experience, so you can tell us exactly what you’re looking for, but here are a few of the incredible activities on offer:  

    • Follow an expert guide through the wilderness, learning about the native wildlife and the natural ecosystems.
    • Head out on the water on a canoeing, kayaking, or standup paddleboarding adventure.
    • Learn to fish with an expert guide.
    • Take a day trip by boat to Snake Falls and Church Island — two historical Anishnaabe (First Nations) sites. First Nations guides will share their authentic stories.
    • There are evening bonfires, star gazings, and even an opportunity to see the Aurora Borealis if you are visiting in fall and winter.
