About Great Canadian Tours
Great Canadian Tours is Revelstoke's longest-running backcountry tour operator, with over twenty-two years of experience guiding visitors through the Monashee and Selkirk mountain ranges on snowmobiles, ATVs, dirt bikes, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards. They hold the largest commercial tenure in North America, giving them exclusive licensed access to seven of the best riding areas around Revelstoke.
In winter, the company runs half-day and full-day guided snowmobile tours through terrain that receives sixteen to twenty metres of annual snowfall, with all guides holding Canadian Avalanche Association certifications and Wilderness First Responder qualifications. Summer shifts the focus to ATV and side-by-side tours along the Columbia River and into the high-alpine backcountry, along with canoe and SUP outings on the region's lakes and waterways. Multi-day all-inclusive packages with accommodation are available for those who want to go deeper into the mountains.
What distinguishes Great Canadian Tours is the scale and exclusivity of their terrain access. While other operators share crowded trail systems, Great Canadian's licensed tenure means their groups ride through pristine, untracked powder in winter and remote alpine meadows in summer without encountering other commercial traffic. Combined with their emphasis on safety credentials and guide professionalism, they deliver a backcountry experience that justifies the trip to Revelstoke on its own.
