Your support helped to keep many Indigenous Tourism BC operators keep their doors open. We enjoy hosting your getaways and gatherings and continue to share our Knowledge and Culture, despite the profound challenges we face in our communities.
Indigenous Tourism BC continues to update our list of Indigenous tourism operators open for business. We remind travellers to respect the wishes of Indigenous communities.
Please make sure you call and inquire ahead of time.
We walk gently and encourage education and exploration about the rich and diverse Indigenous cultures in British Columbia. Explore #IndigenousBC. Share your experience with others, and remember that patience and kindness count. For more information on current Provincial Health Orders, visit here.
Responsible tourism uplifts travel experiences that create positive impacts for all involved–not just travellers. Your travel plans affect Indigenous Peoples and the communities, waters, animals, and lands they care for.
Indigenous Tourism BC advises travellers to know before you go. Indigenous communities and cultures are as unique as the lands they call home. Reach out to your Indigenous hosts for inside tips on current conditions and responsible travel in their Territories.
Indigenous Tourism BC advises travellers to know before you go. Speak directly with tourism operators before travel for best planning.
