Go on a Wildlife Tour

We bet you didn’t know there was so much wildlife in Edmonton that it justifies its own wildlife tour, but let us be the first to inform you that it truly does. Exploring the wildlife in Edmonton is one of the best and most remarkable experiences you can have. Forget going all the way to Africa for a safari, you can have one right here in Edmonton. Birds and Backcountry are the brains behind these tours and offer visitors a look at some of the city’s wildlife, as well as arranging for transportation and meals. These daily tours vary depending on what you are looking for. Every single tour includes beverages, viewing gear and meals, in fact, all you need to do is dress appropriately for the weather, and don’t forget your camera. One of the most popular tours is the Beaver and Bison sunset tour that runs for about four hours. Guests are treated to the sight of elk, bison, deer, moose, beavers and more, as they are transported through Elk Island National Park with a certified guide. For a longer tour make sure to book the Do the Blackfoot tour which includes a hearty trail meal and a visit to Canada's first forest reserve Cooking Lake – Blackfoot Grazing Wildlife Area, and as well as a drive through Elk Island National Park.
