For years we have been offering a selection of independent tours throughout the Yukon, Northwest Territories or Nunavut in Canada's Arctic. These programs are specially designed for those travellers wanting to explore the region without being tied to a specific group or date. They allow you to choose the pace at which you want to travel and to add day tours in communities that suit your individual interests and needs. Not all communities officially offer day tours, but there are often activities you will be welcome to join.
We have chosen a number of specific routes to offer but can customize any combination you desire. Call us if you would like to extend your trip into Alaska or Greenland or simply stay longer in one of our delightful northern communities. We will be pleased to design a program to suit you.
Flying with First Air and Canadian North, we use Inns North whenever possible for our northern accommodations. Our relationships with the airlines and hotels of the north allow us to customize any program you wish, and our thirty years of experience helping travellers visit this wonderful region has given us an unbeatable knowledge of northern travel.
