Our guide Mr. Robinson made the tour even more enjoyable with his kindness, his knowledge about Yellowknife and the aurora, and his clear, easy-to-understand explanations. The tour was also private and flexible, and We were lucky to see an unbelievably beautiful aurora at the spot we were guided to. It was truly the best day of my life. Thank you so much.

Our tour guide Lovingson was very knowledgeable about the northern lights and explained to us how it really works. Lovingson only takes small groups and it turned out it was just the 2 of us. He tried to stay away from the large bus locations to minimize the light pollution and crowds. We had a great experience even though after two hours into the tour there were no more northern lights to be seen.
I would go on any tour with Lovingson!

There is no guarantee you'll see the Northern Lights, but apparently odd are lowest in October and November, so most tour operators apparently close down and don't try. We didn't see any lights and we knew the odds were low. The guide was a great guy, but I would have hoped that for a 4 hour tour, with minimal chances of seeing the lights, that more effort might have been made to fill the time - history of Yellowknife & NWT, a drive around the city to point out highlights, more science and folklore on auroras, etc.

We did have a great time with the northern lights. The guide took us to place that was dark and good to see the lights. However the most disappointing part was that after tour, he promised to send us the photos. But till one month later, we still couldn’t get the photos for our lovely memories and great moments. We did give the guide our email but not sure if he has lost it. 😅

Thank you for your message, and please accept my sincere apologies for the late response. It has been a very busy season for us, but that is no excuse for the delay.
I would also like to be transparent with you. Your guide did take your email and successfully transferred the photos. Unfortunately, as a new guide was learning how to manage photo transfers, the images were mistakenly deleted. This was not intentional, and I am truly sorry that this happened. I completely understand how disappointing it is to lose photos from such a special experience.
I am very glad to hear that you still had a great time and were able to enjoy a beautiful display of the northern lights. We truly appreciate your understanding and your patience, and we are taking steps to make sure this does not happen again.
Thank you again for choosing us, and once again, my sincere apologies.
Warm regards

I recently took an Aurora trip, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our knowledgeable tour guide was fantastic, providing fascinating insights about the area and the auroras. They consistently stayed ahead of the group, ensuring we had the best vantage points and avoided crowds. The private tour experience made it feel even more special, allowing for personalized attention and flexibility in our itinerary. Watching the Northern Lights in such an intimate setting was truly magical. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore the beauty of the auroras while enjoying top-notch guidance and a memorable experience!

It was a great time! Our guide was friendly, knowledgable and optimistic. While waiting for the Aurora to start, he pointed out different things to look for in the sky and told us about life in NWT. We laughed, got lots of photos, and it was very memorable. Would highly recommend this experience!
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure having you on the tour — your positive energy made the evening even more enjoyable. I think the aurora itself picked up on your good vibes, because we were treated to such a beautiful display that night! I’m glad you enjoyed the stories, the laughs, and the photos. Your recommendation means a lot, and I look forward to welcoming you back to Yellowknife again someday

The weather was not good and we could not see the Northern Lights, but the guides were very bright and kind. They are flexible enough to change locations while keeping in touch with other guides. I just didn't know what the real power was because the conditions were too bad, but he was cheerful and kind. We enjoyed the Wildlife Preserve and Takhini Hot Spring tour and also we were very happy to see Aurora on our last night.
