Takaya Tours leads participants on an unforgettable journey across the waters and back through time on 35-foot traditional style ocean-going canoes. While they explore the rich marine coastlines of səlilwət (Burrard Inlet),experienced guides share legends, songs, and stories that help to create memories that will last a lifetime.
