About Me

Lake Louise
Lake Louise

Born and raised in Vancouver, BC, I now call Southern Ontario home but my love for Canada spans Coast to Coast. I use my first hand knowledge of BC, Alberta and Newfoundland to help customize trips suited to you. I believe that Canada has so much to offer, and I love helping others discover it.  

I specialize in independent travel, skiing adventures, group bus tours, and the iconic Rocky Mountaineer. Whether you're looking to carve through fresh powder in Whistler, embark on a bus tour exploring Gros Morne, or take the world class Rocky Mountaineer Train though the Rockies, I have the knowledge and expertise to bring your travel dreams to life. 

In addition to my travel experience, I am also a wildlife specialist, with extensive knowledge of Canada’s diverse wildlife. From polar bear tours in Churchill, Manitoba, to whale-watching excursions in Newfoundland and British Columbia, I can curate the ultimate wildlife adventure. One of the most incredible things about Wildlife travel is you never know the experience you will get, which makes seeing animals in the wild all that more exciting. Whether you want to spot moose and caribou in Jasper National Park, or experience the breathtaking sight of orcas and humpbacks breaching in Canadian waters, I know the best locations and seasons to make your wildlife dreams a reality.

No matter what type of adventure you’re dreaming of, I’m here to help you discover the best of what Canada has to offer. Let’s start planning your unforgettable journey together!

Unsure of where to go
Reviewed By Girls trip - Kincardine, Ontario | Traveled to Cancun | Quintana Roo | Mexico
Upon walking into Ellison Travel I was unsure of who would help me with a booking a trip. I was directed to Andra McCorquodale. I gave her all the parameters needed for the trip. The trip comprised of six ladies- all family. Andra emailed me several properties that met the criteria- after much deliberation with the other ladies the trip was decided upon. Andra assisted with travel insurance booking of rooms- special requests etc. Every step in booking the trip was seamless. Please note that everything was handled via email as only one member of our group resided in Exeter. We travelled to Secrets Akumal in Mexico. It is a beautiful resort and a place I am already missing. Andra contacted the resort and asked for our rooms to be close- she kept in contact with us and provided excellent service.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    6 Week Old Joey Kangaroo - May 2019

    Kanagaroo Farm in British Columbia

    What if I told you that you didn’t need to leave Canada to pet kangaroos? One of my favorite stops on my 2019 cross Canada road trip was Kangaroo Creek Farm in Kelowna, BC. This unique non-profit sanctuary started over a decade ago when 12 kangaroos were rescued from New Zealand. Due to conservation efforts to protect New Zealand’s delica...

    40th Wedding Anniversary Success!
    Everything, I mean everything was 200% perfect & beautiful! Vancouver's Coal Harbour is amazing. Our room at the Pinnacle Harbour Hotel provided exceptional views of the mountains and seaplanes coming & going daily. The drive up to Whistler was as beautiful as Andra described and the Nita Lake Lodge was the icing on the cake! I can't thank you enough Andra for personally knowing the property and recommending it to us. It was SO INCREDIBLY beautiful, exactly the atmosphere we were aiming for. Our room was on the 3rd floor looking directly at the lake, was superbly appointed and was a treat to sit out on the balcony day & night taking in the scenery and quiet bustle below. Andra, your guidance, suggestions & bookings throughout were what made this getaway so memorable for us. Every day we think of something to reminisce about, which brings us great happiness and most fond memories. Thank you so much for doing what you do, and ESPECIALLY in the manner in which you do it Andra!

    Incredible Scuba Diving Trip to Cozumel, Mexico!
    I recently returned from an amazing scuba diving trip to Cozumel, Mexico, and I cannot recommend Andra McCorquodale from Ellison Travel enough for helping make this experience unforgettable. From the moment I reached out to Andra, her professionalism and attention to detail stood out. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in my trip and tailored everything to perfection. Andra was incredibly responsive, answering all my questions quickly and thoroughly, which helped to ease any concerns I had leading up to the trip. She provided excellent recommendations for dive sites, local attractions, and her take on the resort I stayed at - Occidental Cozumel! Her insights made the trip one for the books! The dive operations Andra suggested were top-notch, with guides who were highly knowledgeable, safety-focused, and friendly. Every detail, from transportation to equipment, was organized seamlessly and made the trip that much more enjoyable!
