Anderson Vacations is dedicated to supporting Indigenous tourism in Canada by offering a variety of local and authentic Indigenous experiences on our tours and itineraries. Whether it's
self-drive journeys through Alberta, featuring sites like Métis Crossing and Elk Island, or group tours to
Haida Gwaii to delve into the rich history of the region's Indigenous people, we provide ample opportunities to learn about and appreciate the traditions of those who have inhabited these lands for thousands of years.
In our commitment to sustainable tourism practices and responsible travel, we are proud to announce we are now a reconciliation partner with the Indigenous Tourism Destination Fund (ITDF). Through this collaboration, we are taking meaningful steps toward reconciliation by supporting the growth of Indigenous tourism in Canada.
What does our partnership support?
Through this partnership, we will donate a portion of our proceeds per traveled client, supporting progress towards Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Call to Action #92 which addresses the need to build respectful relationships and ensure that Indigenous communities gain lasting economic benefits from the activities that take place on their land (ITDF, 2023).
What does the ITDF do?
Through the ITDF fund, established by the
Indigenous Tourism Association of Canada (ITAC), investments are being made in infrastructure, human resources, transportation, business development, and marketing, with the aim to support Indigenous tourism as a way for Indigenous communities to diversify their economies which supports current and future generations (ITDF, 2023).
