Takaya Tours

Takaya Tours is owned and operated by the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, pronounced “slay-wah-tuth.” The eco-tourism venture is located on the Lower Mainland of BC, offering interpretive canoe and kayak tours from bases in Cates Park (Whey-Ah-Wichen) in North Vancouver and (Tum-tay-wheutan) in Belcarra Regional Park, Port Moody. At the core of the business are guided interpretive paddles in either the replica ocean-going canoes or sea kayaks. Guests of all ages and fitness abilities can gently paddle in the protected waters of the Burrard Inlet and Indian Arm while guides from the Coast Salish Nation sing songs, tell legends and point out ancient village sites. Experience exciting outdoor adventure while exploring the culture, tradition and history of the Tsleil-Waututh First Nation.
