Canada on a Flying Safari
View Original Description
A Flying Safari in Canada can take on a number of different forms from touring Arctic locations in search of trophy fish and Hudson Bay trading routes in expectation of observing Polar Bears to tours of the Labrador region’s Torngat Mountains that combine hiking on a glacier with air touring and Eastern Canada tours that include self-fly, guided visits to Toronto, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Niagara Falls, Montreal and Quebec City. The incredible unspoiled beauty and vast wide open spaces makes Canada a perfect place for a Flying Safari.
One such Canadian adventure that attracts pilots or those travelers just hitching a ride for a 16 day hop around Eastern Canada begins in Toronto, Ontario under the guidance of a lead pilot and accompanying tour director. The route progresses to Manitoulin Island, the world’s largest freshwater island, then on to the resort town of Mont Tremblant in the Laurentian Highlands. Successive stops in Quebec City to view the St. Lawrence River and the Gaspe Peninsula sees the flight plan then following the river northward delivering the flyers to St. Edward Island after a trip up the scenic Northumberland Strait. Montreal is included after a stopover in St. Andrews by the Sea, then, after overnighting in the world class city, pilots point their aircraft in the direction of Rice Lake and the highly popular Kawarthas resort. The tour returns to Toronto after a visit to iconic Niagara Falls.
Tour operators will arrange every detail for participants in Flying Safaris including rental aircraft or a seat on a plane piloted by a fellow enthusiast, proper licensing, ground transportation, ground tours, meals and accommodations. Other Flying Safaris transport passengers in float planes around Canada’s West Coast with highly-trained pilots and guides allowing their customers to experience secluded coves, resorts otherwise unreachable, hidden salmon fishing rivers, whale watching and stunning old growth forests.
