Description

The Northern Lights of the Northwest Territories is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena in Canada. Experience this magical spectacle for yourself when you take our fantastic trip from Yellowknife!

Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Yellowknife and set off on our wonderful adventure. As the sunsets over Canada's Northwest Territories, we'll make several stops to witness the spectacular Northern Lights.

We'll visit forests and other natural areas, far away from light pollution, to admire the Aurora Borealis in detail. These polar lights cast the sky in wonderful colors! Legend has it that if you make a wish underneath them, it will come true.

At each stop, there will be a selection of tasty snacks and drinks on offer so you have no need to feel hungry. If you bring your camera equipment and tripod, the guide will help you set it all up so that you capture the best photos of this amazing sight.

As we continue on the trip, the northern lights will become even more visible. The Arctic Circle is still very far away, but this is the perfect location to enjoy the phenomena of the aurora borealis.

Finally, 4 hours after we set off, our brilliant adventure finishes back at your hotel in Yellowknife.

Tour in Teepees

Upgrade your experience, and we'll follow the same itinerary described above, but the aurora borealis viewing will take place in cozy tieepees or in glass cabins with a 360 degree panoramic view.

We'll also have a soup and hot drinks and after 4 hours of touring, we'll return to your hotel in Yellowknife.
