7 Days on Haida Gwaii for Seniors. Ultra Small Groups.
Overview
Surround yourself in flourishing rainforests, windswept sand-dunes and endless beaches. Visit the totems that honour 10,000 years of history and meet a Haida Watchman. Sit down to a traditional feast of seafood, fresh from the ocean.
A globally unique ecosystem that partially escaped the last ice-age, Haida Gwaii is an archipelago of more than 150 islands that evokes comparisons to the equally isolated and biologically diverse Galapagos Islands.
The landscape ranges from sand beaches and dunes on the east coast to the rocky, surf-battered west coast and from muskeg lowlands on Graham Island to the rugged, eroded Queen Charlotte Ranges of Moresby Island. The tranquil environment of Haida Gwaii is occasionally interrupted by dramatic natural processes such as violent storms, big surf, landslides and earthquakes. While still a microcosm of coastal British Columbia, these events continue to alter the landscape and the ecosystems of the islands to give Haida Gwaii its own identity.

What To Expect
As a small group, we tread lightly on this land, becoming more mindful of the culture that surrounds us. We unobtrusively visit quaint shops and galleries and tread lightly in the rainforest. The Haida People and remote, ancient sites give us an understanding the traditional way of life and how they have adapted to changing times.
Over the course of eight days, we visit the two largest islands, Graham and Moresby and stay in bed and breakfasts in the villages of Queen Charlotte City, Tlell, and Masset. We visit SG̱ang Gwaay, the village of Skedans (Ḵ’uuna), St. Mary’s Spring, and Balance Rock. In carving studios and attractions we meet Haida artists. Sometimes we may go crabbing, or head out to an activity at the last minute.
This small group tour is rated as “easy”. But easy can be active as well. We ask that you walk a few kilometers on some days and not to let age hold you back. Many of the sites we visit in Haida Gwaii can only be reached by trail, such as the site of the Golden Spruce, Spirit Lake and Tow Hill in Naikoon Provincial Park.
Due to weather and special events our itinerary may vary - but we promise you will be entertained!
Ja háw’aa!
