Canoe Camping Safari

Arguably, Algonquin Adventure Tours are best known for their three, four, and five-day camping safari trips that take you into the heart of Algonquin. These quintessentially Canadian trips show off the best of the Park’s beauty, as you paddle on pristine water, relax in a hammock, sit by the campfire, and spend the nights stargazing from your waterfront campsite.

These safaris are also your best chance at getting up-close-and-personal with wildlife. What better soundtrack could there be for your adventure than the elegant echo of the loon, or even the howls of far-off wolves? While wildlife viewing is not guaranteed, your chances are greatly improved thanks to your guide and their expertise.
