Yukon Aurora Retreat

In the late morning, embark on a city tour to uncover the historic and trendy sights of Whitehorse. Visit the SS Klondike National Historic Site, one of the last grand paddlewheelers to navigate the Yukon River until the 1950s. Explore the Old Log Church, the oldest building in Whitehorse, and admire the unique Log Cabin Skyscraper, a three-story tower built entirely from logs. After taking in these iconic landmarks, enjoy a leisurely stroll along Main Street, ideal for shopping, browsing galleries, and relaxing in cozy cafés. For the aurora viewing, the air is as crisp as the night sky is dark. The city's noise is a distant memory, leaving you in a serene, peaceful setting. Suddenly, the sky comes alive with shimmering shades of green, blue, and red, dancing in a mesmerizing display. This is no ordinary light show; it's the Aurora Borealis, the most breathtaking natural spectacle in the North. Our Northern Lights Viewing Tour combines premium comfort with an immersive Aurora experience. Enjoy hot chocolate and roast marshmallows over a campfire at our authentic, heated Aurora Basecamp outside the city. Throughout the evening, we’ll share fascinating information about the Northern Lights and offer tips on aurora photography to help you capture this stunning phenomenon. We'll pick you up from your hotel in Downtown Whitehorse and drive you to our heated Aurora Basecamp, just 25 minutes away. After a magical night, we'll return you to your accommodations around 2:00 AM.
