Solo Traveler Guide – Embarking from Vancouver
It can be a thrilling experience, but I wanted to be sure I chose the very best travel network whilst creating my Solo Traveler Guide. In my experience, the Moose Travel Network stands out as the best option for solo backpackers. Offering a unique blend of flexibility, camaraderie, and unparalleled experiences, Moose gave me everything I could have hoped for while exploring the world of Western Canada.
One of the key reasons why Moose was my choice is its flexibility. Solo adventures are all about embracing spontaneity and discovering hidden gems along the way. With Moose, you have the freedom to choose from a variety of routes, ensuring that your journey aligns perfectly with your preferences and interests. Whether you crave the lakes of the Okanagan or the picturesque landscapes of the Rocky Mountains, Moose provides diverse itineraries catering to every solo traveler’s taste. Their 2024 lineup offers our 8 day Caribou tour, through British Columbia and Alberta, and shorter 5 day and 6 day tours such as the Coho or Wapiti tours. I tagged along last year, resulting in one of the best trips of my life!
Unforgettable Experiences as a Solo Traveler
The camaraderie that develops during the journey creates lasting friendships and unforgettable memories. From cozy campfires under the starlit sky to exploring charming historic towns together, Moose transforms solo adventures into shared experiences that make the journey as memorable as the destinations.
The friends I made from all corners of the world opened their arms to me, and vice versa. Every single day brought the unexpected. I bonded with my new friend Leah as we rode along the Trans-Canada Highway, stricken by the towering hills and lush forest surrounding us. As we arrived in Lake Revelstoke, we stopped for kayaking with a seasoned paddler, Terry. After his crash course on safety, Leah and I buddied up and took our kayak along with the group to the mouth of a humble, yet striking waterfall. Afterwards, over complimentary homemade granola from the legend Terry, the group reveled over our recent adventure. Soon thereafter, as we made our way across the border of British Columbia and Alberta, a black bear examined the bus no more than a metre away from the glass door. Melissa, a pal from Australia exclaimed: “this alone makes my whole trip worth it!”
Incredibly talented local guides based in Alberta and British Columbia
Another distinctive feature that sets Moose apart is its dedicated tour guides. Seasoned with rich and relevant knowledge, you can entrust Bruno, Keira, and others to enhance your journey with direction, knowledge, personality, and humor. Moose prides itself on its team of experienced guides who not only provide insightful commentary about the destinations but also act as travel companions, ensuring that travelers feel supported and engaged throughout the trip. These guides add an extra layer of security and companionship, making Moose a trustworthy choice for those exploring the world on their own.
Immerse yourself in the local culture, embark on thrilling outdoor adventures, and discover hidden gems that may be overlooked when traveling alone. Moose’s commitment to delivering a well-rounded experience ensures that backpackers get the most out of their journey, creating a perfect balance between planned activities and free time for personal exploration. I often think back fondly to our afternoon at Bridal Veil Falls, when we were able to scale the sides for photos that would impress a professional. These quips of free roaming within the itinerary make each Moose trip special, for each and every backpacker.

Budget-conscious individuals will also appreciate Moose’s affordability. The network offers various options. The all-inclusive packages cover transportation, accommodation, and select activities, allowing solo travelers to plan their adventure without the hassle of managing multiple bookings. This transparency in pricing and the value-packed offerings make Moose an economical and convenient choice for those exploring the world solo.
In conclusion, the Moose Travel Network emerges as the best option for backpackers seeking a perfect blend of flexibility, camaraderie, and unforgettable experiences.
