Informative tour. The tour guide Leon was well informed and knowledgeable. And he was helpful. It was a great history lesson.

I joined a tour in Yellowknife with my mother and sister. We were the only three participants on the tour. Our guide, Mimi, was incredibly kind, considerate, and friendly. She brought the car close for my mother, who has difficulty walking, and even helped us load her wheelchair into the trunk. Mimi also recommended some great restaurants in Yellowknife. Thanks to her, we had such a wonderful and memorable experience.
Although this tour is listed as an English-language tour, Mimi speaks both English and Japanese. She kindly guided us using both languages to make sure we understood everything. If you’re not confident in your English but are interested in joining this tour, I believe Mimi can also support you in Japanese.
