About Us

Great Explorations is a boutique tour operator specializing in providing active vacations in North America, Europe and around the world. We are a private company with a simple philosophy: to create and deliver exceptional, one-of-a-kind trips for spirited individuals and groups who prefer active travel as a way to see the world and to do it in the company of fun, interesting people. Bicycling and walking/hiking are our preferred means of travel as we believe these to be the most rewarding ways to explore a place and to interact with its people.

For more than 25 years Randonnée Tours has been offering an exceptional line of self-guided active vacations in Canada, the United States and Europe. We’ve been North America’s leading specialist in self-guided active tours since 1990.

Great Explorations & Randonnée Tours has been recognized by National Geographic Traveler as one of the top Active Travel Companies on the planet and has also been recognized multiple times by the Georgia Straight as a top tour operator in BC. Our event management subsidiary creates, produces and manages cycling events that raise awareness and funding for recreational, environmental and other causes.
