Our Yukon trips are not fully escorted. You will enjoy a selection of guided tours and experiences but will not be tied to a specific group or rigid daily itinerary.

This allows you, with the help of our travel experts, to personalize your trip to suit your interests, availability, and budget. We’ll guide you through the process and provide the reassurance of seamless connections, customer service support, and scheduled activities tailored to your taste.

In the Yukon, your daytime activities can include dogsledding, snowshoeing, wildlife viewing, and relaxing at hot springs. You can explore the province's stunning winter landscapes and Gold Rush historic sites. With a blend of outdoor adventure and scenic beauty, these activities are a great complement to your nighttime Northern Lights viewing.

The best time to see the Northern Lights in Whitehorse is between September and early April, when the nights are long and the skies are often clear. Our local experts can work with you to find a date that aligns with your availability to maximize your chances of seeing the Northern Lights.

Our Northern Lights trips can accommodate children, but there may be a minimum age for some day tours. Winter clothing rentals may be harder to obtain for some ages. It’s important to note that Northern Lights viewing happens late at night, so it may be tiring for some children. Please speak to one of our local travel experts and they can find the best trip options for you.

Winter in the Yukon can get quite cold, so layering is essential. The good news is our winter trips include gear rental — coat, snow pants, boots, gloves, and hat — so you don't need to buy expensive outerwear. Focus on packing layers, such as a moisture-wicking thermal bases, fleece or wool mid-layers, and warm accessories like a toque, neck gaiter, and glove liners. Many travellers bring hand and foot warmers, handy for activities like dogsledding. For photos, bring a camera, wide-angle lens, tripod, and extra batteries kept warm.

For your convenience, this trip includes a flight from Vancouver to Whitehorse, Yukon, so you don't need to arrange travel to the Yukon yourself. Other travellers fly directly into Whitehorse, while some choose to drive from British Columbia. We'll make sure your travel details are handled seamlessly so you can focus on enjoying your Northern Lights adventure.
