Visitors choose Homalco Wildlife & Cultural Tours for many reasons. Our wilderness tours are unlike anything you’ve done before because we weave our ancestral knowledge, stories, language and marine expertise into every tour we give. These tours contribute to the rekindling of our culture, traditions and language. This is more than a profession for us – it’s a way of life.
We take our role as stewards of these lands and waters seriously. Dedicated to conservation and sustainability, we work tirelessly to preserve the pristine environment of the Xwémalhkwu or Homalco First Nation and ensure that our wildlife and cultural tours leave minimal impact on the natural world. This includes being a Biosphere Committed organization dedicated to aligning our operations with three of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our commitment to our guests is steadfast. Our guides are certified in safe bear viewing by the Commercial Bear Viewing Association of BC, and all are trained in first aid. Our guides and skippers are certified by the Marine Education and Research Society for whales, wildlife and culture tours.
