As Indigenous tourism initiatives in Canada ramp up, with Six Nations of the Grand River's tourism numbers more than tripling between 2017 and 2018 and Indigenous tourism GDP growth outpacing that of mainstream tourism in Canada, Indigenous-run tourism operators say they're focused squarely on accurate representations of their culture — both past and present.

The driver, 17 passengers on a birthday outing and two pedestrians were killed in the crash in rural Schoharie.

Returning from a holiday in need of some quality down-time (the classic “I need a vacation from my vacation,”) is a natural side effect. The growing trend of wellness tourism is designed to offer a solution to this very problem.
