Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional experiences that allow visitors to discover the local traditions, language, and ways of life of the Indigenous peoples. We offer a range of tours that are designed to be both immersive and educational, ensuring a deeper understanding of the region's history and culture.
Honoring the Dene Laws through our work
At the heart of our work is gonàowoò – the Tłı̨chǫ way of life. Our business is not only about tours, services, and operations; it is about living and sharing values that have guided Dene people for generations. The Dene Laws remind us how to live well with one another, with our visitors, and with the land.
Safety First
Our guides and partners are equipped and trained to deliver a safe and secure visitor experience.
