OUR STORY

Moose Travel Network is an adventure tour and transportation network for mainly 18 to 39 year old (and young at heart!) budget travellers in Western Canada. Our company was founded in 1997 by two entrepreneurs who wanted to show visitors a truly Canadian experience by getting them “out and about” into the wild outdoors of this stunningly beautiful and diverse country!

Based in cosmopolitan Vancouver, British Columbia, we offer 13 tours departing from either Vancouver or Banff. Major towns and regions we visit include the Rocky Mountains, Banff and Jasper National Parks, Jasper town, Whistler, Victoria, Tofino, and elsewhere on Vancouver Island. On travel days, we stop en route for sightseeing, walks/hikes, swimming, and wildlife spotting at spectacular lakes, mountain viewpoints, waterfalls, glaciers, and more. During free time, Moose travellers can choose to participate in a wide variety of optional activities such as whale watching, kayaking, or whitewater rafting, for an extra cost. Or just chill out, check out a cultural site, go shopping…or more hiking. It’s your trip, your choice!

Our tours include dormitory-style hostel accommodation, transportation in 13 to 24 seat mini-buses, the services of a driver/guide, National Park fees, and a few select activities and meals. Most of our itineraries also include special Indigenous cultural experiences, for example a guided tour of an Indigenous heritage site or cultural centre, or a First Nations meal.  If visiting Vancouver Island, two scenic ferry rides are also included. For those that prefer more privacy, we also offer a non-accommodated option on all tours, so that you can arrange alternative accommodation in private rooms, hotels, or wherever else you choose.

Join us in Western Canada and Ride the Moose!

OUR COMMITMENT

Our tours have been carefully designed to provide passengers with opportunities to see and learn about the real Canada. Our buses are clean, safe, reliable and comfortable while our staff are friendly and enthusiastic, what more could you ask for? We guarantee you will enjoy whatever tour you choose when you ride with Moose!

OUR BUSES

The buses used by Moose include modern 13 and 24 seat mini-coaches and 11 seat passenger vans. We choose these vehicles because they provide safe, comfortable transportation through cities and wilderness alike. With a smaller group, you get to know our driver guides so you are not lost in a crowd!

THE ENVIRONMENT

The Moose Travel Network is committed to doing our part to protect our natural heritage. Travel by bus is one of the most environmentally friendly ways of transportation (up to 475% more fuel efficient than a hybrid car), however we recognize this isn’t enough. We are working with our suppliers to reduce our impact on the planet, and we actively encourage Moose travellers to do the same at home and while travelling with us.
