Join us on a tour to look for the largest land mammals in North America - the Wood Bison! NWT is home to North America's largest free roaming herd of wood bison - and from Yellowknife we can take a day tour to look for them. How big are wood bison? The bison bulls can stand up to 6ft tall at their shoulders, 13ft long, and can weigh more than a tonne. Females are smaller and can weigh up to 1,200 pounds. Will we see any baby bison? It is common to see newborn and growing calves among the herds. Could we see other animals too? Hopefully. We have previously spotted black bear, eagles, fox, porcupines. Where do we travel? We travel on highway 3 south, near the world's 10th largest lake - Great Slave Lake, and share facts and stories about the area. Is food provided? A light picnic lunch is provided with a snack and beverage. Animal sightings can not be guaranteed. We have a 4 person minimum for this tour to take place, however we will try our best to arrange groups.

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.
