Yes — you really can see the Northern Lights right from Yellowknife. ✨
These photos were taken from our own back deck this past week.
So why book an Aurora Hunting Tour?
Because seeing the aurora and giving yourself the best possible aurora experience aren’t always the same thing.
When the lights are strong, you might catch them from your hotel, downtown, or even your backyard. But an Aurora Hunting Tour gives us the freedom to get away from city lights, watch the weather and cloud cover, and move to different locations when conditions call for it.
You’re not paying for access to the Northern Lights — Mother Nature handles that part.
You’re booking the local knowledge, transportation, darker skies, different viewing locations, photography opportunities, and the experience of heading out into the Yellowknife night in search of the best conditions we can find.
Book a tour for tonight! We accept last minute bookings:
