Talking Totem Tours is the Inbound destination specialist for Aboriginal Cultural group  travel tours in British Columbia.  We operate at a wholesale level as an inbound Canadian receptive operator for travel trade clientele worldwide.  We deliver excellence in travel experiences, unsurpassed flexibility in tailoring and custom packaged travel.

Each of our clients receives support from our toll free Travel Coordinators where we assist travelers and agents with planning, customizing and booking their cultural vacation experiences.

Talking Totem Tours is pleased to bring you our 2008 Aboriginal Tour Itineraries. Throughout this past year, we have worked closely with Aboriginal Cultural Tour suppliers to ensure the greatest diversity in high quality tours. These package itineraries will enable you to tap into the rich culture that the First Nations People of British Columbia have to offer.

We have compiled a carefully selected list of high-calibre cultural tourism businesses and guided tours that are locally owned and operated by Aboriginal families. These families are highly regarded in the community and usually a whole family will get involved; children, parents, grandparents all sharing their time honored traditions. Your clients will experience first hand the practice of environmental stewardship, cultural integrity, social sustainability and genuine creative communities.

Talking Totem Tours offers quality authentic, cultural activities and packages with meeting rooms and traditional meals and rail and motorcoach transportation. We customize professional development workshops to suit the size of the group.

We offer Aboriginal Add-On Tour Packages through British Columbia featuring:

Over 60 Traditional Celebration Vacation Itineraries.

Over 20 guided Itineraries covering: First Nation Festivals, guided tours to sacred sites, eagle viewing, grizzly bear viewing, whale watching, fishing, wild horse viewing and traditional ceremonies.

Over 100 Aboriginal cultural tour suppliers.

Day Tours & Transfers available to all major traditional events and sites

As part of Talking Totem Tours' commitment to help preserve fragile environments and Cultural Heritage, we are very pleased to announce responsible transportation to our tours with the addition of rail transportation. Since 1885, the role of the Railway has been to be a steward and promote North America's Environment.

• Research indicates that trains are still less damaging to the environment:

• Trains use 5 times less fuel than automobiles
• Trains cause 85% less air pollution than airplanes

Rail passengers have opportunities to access the rich First Nations culture of our eco-tour destinations.

If your company is currently operating Group or Fully Independent Travel packages throughout British Columbia, then Talking Totem Tours would be interested in speaking with you about the opportunity to work together.

To assist our travel trade partners Talking Totem Tours will assist with familiarization tour support, images for marketing materials, net rates, and direct billing services.
