Indigenous Tourism in Canada

Approach Indigenous tourism through Indigenous-owned or community-supported experiences, local protocols and respectful learning.

Indigenous peoples and cultures are living and diverse; they are not one historical theme.

Find Indigenous-led experiences

Use Indigenous tourism organizations and community sources when possible.

Respect protocols

Photography, access, stories and sacred places may have specific rules.

Avoid generic claims

First Nations, Inuit and Metis communities have distinct histories, languages and priorities.

Support rather than extract

Pay fairly, listen to hosts and avoid presenting cultural knowledge as a souvenir.
