Trip Itinerary
Arrive in Vancouver
Welcome to our hometown — a famously lovely west coast city, surrounded by mountains and ocean.
Into the north - Vancouver to Whitehorse
Head north to Whitehorse, one of North America's best Northern Lights (aurora borealis) viewing locations. Whitehorse has low precipitation levels — it is practically a desert — which means little cloud cover and maximum viewing time!
- Flight from Vancouver to Whitehorse
- Transfer to Northern Lights Resort and Spa
- Winter Clothing Rental
We've included a winter clothing package to ensure you keep warm and comfortable throughout your trip.
- Aurora Viewing at the Northern Lights Resort and Spa
The Northern Lights Resort and Spa was designed for ideal Aurora viewing. Located away from the city lights, all seven cabins are north facing, with either large windows or a private patio. View the lights from your cabin or join other guests at the nightly outdoor bonfire. Request a door knock so that you can sleep as long as possible and still not miss the lights.
