About Us

In Our Community

Giving back to our community is a large part of what Landsea Tours & Adventures stands for. Whether that’s for our friends in the tourism industry, our belief of a responsible future, to the environment or to various organizations that focus on making BC a better place, Landsea strives to show support and commitment to all.

LANDSEA SUMMER SIZZLER

For over 20 years, Landsea Tours has hosted an annual event for up to 800 people from our tourism community. This event is a time to celebrate our fabulous city, share information, network, and build excitement around the many visitors about to share our beautiful neighbourhoods.

VANCOUVER SHORELINE CLEANUP

Starting in 2014, and now an annual company event, a team of employees participate in the “Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup”. For this event, members of the community are encouraged to “adopt” a portion of shoreline and engage in collection of garbage and cleaning of the beach/shoreline. In 2014, we adopted the shoreline in Stanley Park between Brockton Point and Lumberman’s Arch and in 2015 and 2016 we cleaned up the shoreline in Stanley Park between the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club and the Nine O’clock Gun. Each year we spend the day cleaning the area and will continue to do so for years to come.

SUPPORTER OF CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS

As a socially responsible organization, we continue to donate our time and professional services to charitable organizations. We offer tours and charter services to organizations like the Alzheimer’s Society of BC, the Canadian Cancer Society, ALS Society, and a selection of tourism organizations for educational purposes and local events.

STUFF THE BUS

Landsea has organized a charitable initiative called “Stuff the Bus”. This multi-day charity drive created awareness of the demand for basic essentials in our communities. “Stuff the Bus” ran successfully for six years starting in 2006 and ran to 2012, stuffing a total of 18 buses! The purpose was to collect much needed supplies including linens, warm clothing, and toiletries for local community service societies. This project has since been taken over by the students of Capilano University.

Greater Vancouver Foodbank

Each year Landsea hosts an industry event, called the Summer Sizzler, with more than 800 attendees. As admission we ask each guest to bring either cash and food donations for the Greater Vancouver Foodbank. Additionally, one of our annual team building events includes spending an evening volunteering to help sort food at our local food bank.

YWCA Presents for Peace

Starting in 2015 and every year since then, we have the opportunity to sponsor a family during the Holiday season by providing essentials such as groceries and child care supplies.
