Carl Saulnier-Gagnon
Proud of our country in all his beauties and specificities.
From our languages to our landscapes, you'll get the best experiences possible while you in Canada.
Always trying to support the local entrepreneurs, our network of partners will definitely fit your needs from coast to coast.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Canada is an amazing country with so much nature wonders. From the Rockies out west to the cliff on the Atlantic Coast, there is so many amazing places where you feel so small beside those natural wonders.
BUT being from Montreal, I do LOVE our amazing cities and the communities that lives in all of them. Food, nightlife, markets... I can share some great spots with pleasure :)
"
How did you get involved in travel?
"Luckily, my mom sent me to France with the school for my first travel experience.
As soon as I got there I felt something I've never experienced before and knew that it would be part of my life.
I was lucky enough to travel around the world at a young age and decided to make it a career. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"For me there is nothing like connecting with local communities and to meet amazing people. Growing up my grand father was always talking about Moscow and Russia and I had imagine the city just by all the stories he shared with me.
I was so intrigued by Russia growing up...
As soon as I was able to visit, I went and will always remember the first sight of the Red Square and the feeling I had at that time. I ended up sipping vodka with a local and talking about my grandfather stories. "

We have used kimkim in the past and like that it advertises specialists in the country in which you want to travel. The service provided for this trip was disappointing. Granted, we were a large group (initially 12 people), but there were many significant details that were missed creating complications and producing unneeded anxiety. The kimkim platform seemed to overly complicate communication and our travel specialist frequently did not check in on the platform for days at a time - so it... read more
Hi Tom,
We are sorry about the stress that you were put on into but at least we were able to make everything happen even with so many out of our controls things happening.
Sorry for some delay with our messages over the weekend, it can happen during high season.
Thank you

Carl did a great job of balancing out city sightseeing opportunities with outdoor adventures around Vancouver. The best part was trying out things like cycling around the sea wall and city, something I wouldn’t normally think about doing. The accommodations were in fantastic locations. I appreciate the thoughtfulness into my itinerary since it was so last minute.
I will definitely use this company again. Thank you! read more

Jul 7 - Jul 12, 2022
Both the historic tour and the foodie tours were fun and meeting people from all over the country (USA) made it enjoyable. I don’t remember our guide’s names. But the daily interactions with the people of the city, the Uber drivers, people we met on the tours was probably the most fascinating. read more
Thank you Lynda,
