ITINERARY:

DAY 1 - Arriving in Yellowknife

Upon your arrival in Yellowknife you will be met by a local guide and transferred to your hotel. Enroute you will stop to suit-up into your winter attire and given an orientation of the local area. After dropping off your luggage, join the tour to the Aurora Viewing Facilities located in an authentic teepee village. This site is ideally situated to observe the maximum brilliance of the Aurora. Listen to the interpretive commentary while taking in the beauty of the electrically charged night sky. Also included is your choice of soup and hot beverages.

DAY 2 - Exploring Yellowknife

Today enjoy a three hour sightseeing tour of the local attractions and historic sites in Yellowknife. This evening, return to the viewing site to see the Northern Lights, this striking natural occurrence of the Canadian North. Normally there are curtains of white, blue, and green light in this natural light show. They may also form a corona and seem to burst. Your guide will also be able to tell you some of the Inuit folk tales and scientific facts that are associated with this spectacle. A choice of soups and hot beverages are once again included.

DAY 3 - Departing Yellowknife

This morning you will be transferred to the Yellowknife airport.
