Aboriginal Tourism BC (AtBC) has launched a full-service travel agency

Aboriginal Tourism BC (AtBC) has launched a full-service travel agency dedicated to the business and leisure needs of companies, First Nations bands, organizations and individuals throughout Canada. Developed as a social enterprise, Aboriginal Travel Services will use the latest technology, including a comprehensive online booking platform, that will provide the best rates with airlines, hotels and car rental companies. It will also offers full meeting and event planning. With an extensive knowledge of local, authentic Aboriginal experiences, ATS is able to provide unique packages to interested leisure and corporate travellers. “The launch today is a major achievement and is a reflection of the hard work and dedication by our management team and board of directors,” said Keith Henry, CEO of Aboriginal Tourism BC. “Extensive review and research was completed and AtBC is extremely proud to launch a First Nations owned and operated agency that will reinvest profits into the Aboriginal communities and tourism initiatives—truly a win-win for all involved.”
