Join this amazing small group outing of watching and capturing the aurora borealis in Yellowknife, the best place on earth to see the northern lights. I've been leading aurora tours from Montreal since 2016 and it's my 3rd year leading aurora tours in Yellowknife. I offer all guidance to help you live the best experience and come back with beautiful photos using your camera or phone. I have guided small tours also in Iceland and I am comfortable in dealing with various weather conditions. Prior to each outing, make sure all participants have the appropriate warm clothing and protective gear and headlamps, if they don't have it they will be required to lease it from the aurora village shop. My tours are made for a small group, so we all get to enjoy the nature together.
