Trip Description:
Day 1
Itinerary: (4 days)
Day 1
We’ll meet you at the airport and take you for a city tour of Whitehorse. We visit Main Street, the McBride Museum, the Visitor’s Reception Centre; we pick up your winter clothing and/ or rental car if required and go for some shopping. Then we drive to the beautiful lodge near the Takhini River.
Aurora viewing: Weather permitting you can see the Aurora Borealis dance across the sky from the luxurious and comfortable viewing/dining room. Or go outside for a walk under the star filled sky and listen…… The lonely cry of a Wolf or Coyote, the questioning hoot of the resident owl, the frosty crackle, the wind in the trees, these are the sounds of special northern nights. Although it is said that the Aurora does not make a noise, we think it does ……if one just listens close enough.  A dazzling and amazing experience!
Optional dinner at the lodge. 
Have dinner while watching the dancing lights! ($40 per person)

The Aurora Borealis in Canada is without a doubt a phenomenon that nature has so generously bestowed upon us, and thousands of people every year make the trek to the Yukon countryside to see this dazzling display of magical lights. In fact, at Nature Tours of Yukon, our guests by and large come to Whitehorse to take part in a Northern Lights tour that will likely render them speechless. If you would get a thrill out of experiencing the razzle-dazzle of the Aurora Borealis firsthand, we would be just as thrilled to help you plan a customized trip.

You may have heard about the Aurora Borealis, or perhaps even seen some captivating pictures of the Northern Lights in books. We assure you that these photos you may have seen can in no way compare to actually viewing the Aurora Borealis in person. The magnetic pull of the dancing lights in the midnight sky will lock your eyes in the upwards position, as you will not want to blink for fear of missing one moment of such exquisite natural beauty. The Northern Lights have been inspiring people around the world for centuries, simply because they are so wondrously captivating and magical, that no man-made display of lights could ever match their twinkling beauty and grace.

Lose Yourself in the Aurora Borealis Could you use a little rest and relaxation? Perhaps you could use a little reprieve from the high-tech world we live in for some quiet solitude out in the Canadian Yukon. Imagine sitting in a heated tent surrounded by pristine wilderness, with the Northern Lights being the only illumination around you. If you long for some peace and quiet, let the sparkling lights of the Aurora Borealis transport you to that place in your heart and mind that feels content just being the observer.

There is nothing for you to do but simply enjoy the natural fireworks display of the Aurora Borealis. You and your fellow travelers can enjoy some hot chocolate and good conversation, from the comfort of a heated tent or cabin, without any ‘To Do’ lists to worry about or errands to run or people to call. When you take a Northern Lights adventure tour with us, you can check your responsibilities at the door and allow the natural beauty of the landscape to envelop you and intoxicate your senses.
