Malcolm Briggs says:
This was a terrific holiday as it was completely different to my regular life and great fun! As a small business owner it can be hard to get away, and it was great to have an experience that completely took me out of my daily life and showed a wonderful new part of the world. It's the first time I've actually felt like I got away from work in five years.

Introduction: It's back to nature and the old way of living on this 9 day tour, offering a taste of what it must have been like for those early pioneers (only in more comfortable surroundings)! Follow in the footsteps of the infamous fur trading Voyageurs who used the extensive river system some 200 years ago to venture into the Canadian wilderness. Start with a 5-day guided canoe trip along a 160 km (100 miles) stretch of the Athabasca river, a completely outfitted excursion with lots of fun and thrills. Camp on islands, cook on the open fire under the stars, and live close to nature in the great outdoors. Then spend 4 days on a typical Canadian cattle ranch. You can help the ranchers with their daily chores, go swimming in the lake, mountain biking, horse-riding, or take off on an ATV quad bike into the surrounding hills. This tour offers a fantastic opportunity to get away from it all, and experience the refreshing tranquility and beauty of the Canadian countryside.
