About Nature Trek Canada

Nature Trek Canada (NTC) was founded in 1992 by wildlife biologists Lo Camps and Anne-Marie Linders. They use their expertise to select unique wilderness destinations. NTC aims to create a wilderness experience that is challenging but safe, inspirational and enjoyable. NTC’s staff values personal contact with you and maintains exceptional quality for all its expeditions (251 to date). Staying small provides room to excell – since 1998 NTC has chosen not grow.

Nature Trek Canada's Philosophy

After 22 years, Nature Trek Canada remains at the forefront of innovative wilderness travel. We feel that personal contact with each participant, attention to detail are crucial to provide an experience that will last a lifetime. Remaining a small but succesful company for this long is a testimony to our commitment and dedication. We limit our impact on the fragile nature of the places we visit but recognize our responsibility for an increase in CO2 emissions. To minimize our share, we support innovative projects through www.greatestplanet.org.

About our guides
NTC's guides are good interpreters and 'people's people' who create the right atmosphere for teamwork and personal space. In remote locations guides not only must be able to adjust to ever-changing local conditions and must be able to make everyone feel safe and comfortable. NTC's experienced guides add an extra dimension to each trip. They bring fun, knowledge, safety and leadership. Many people come back just to go with them again. Every year, we talk about what we liked, what we really liked and what needs changing or improving. So with your input and ours, we adjust our programs to make them even better and more interesting, year after year.
