Summer Polar Bears and Northern Lights Safari

Explore the Arctic at your own pace on a private, tailor-made tour

Embark on an adventure across the rugged tundra with our expert guides.

Traverse vast landscapes on all-terrain vehicles in search of polar bears and other Arctic wildlife, such as Arctic foxes, bald eagles, ptarmigan, Arctic hares, wolverines, and wolves.

After an exhilarating day of exploration, we retreat to our tented camp nestled deep in the tundra. There, you can unwind with freshly prepared meals from our camp chef, prepare to be captivated by the mesmerizing dance of the Northern Lights and fall asleep under a starlit sky.

Each expedition is entirely private — we host only one party at a time. Whether you're traveling solo or with a group, the entire camp and guiding team are dedicated exclusively to you.

There is no single supplement, even if you're the only guest that week.

We tailor every trip to suit your interests, pace, and goals — whether you're a photographer chasing golden light, a wildlife enthusiast seeking unforgettable encounters, or simply craving remote Arctic solitude.

Join us for a truly personal and immersive Arctic experience, where every day promises exciting discoveries and remarkable encounters with the wild.

Itinerary

Arrive in Arviat where you will be greeted by our team. They will get you geared up and ready for the ride to your home for the next week. Once we arrive at camp you will have time to settle in before we have a briefing about camp procedures and safety guidelines.
These days will follow a relaxed yet purposeful rhythm, designed to immerse you in the summer beauty of the Arctic. After a hearty breakfast in camp, we’ll set out to explore the remote shores of Hudson Bay, keeping a lookout for polar bears as they roam the coastal landscape. Along the way, we may also encounter other Arctic wildlife such as caribou, Arctic foxes, and a wide variety of migratory birds, including tundra swans and sandhill cranes.
Because each expedition is privately guided and single-party only, every day is tailored specifically to your interests—whether that’s wildlife photography, quiet observation, birdwatching, or simply taking in the untouched scenery. Routes and activities are adjusted based on your personal goals, wildlife movements, and weather conditions, allowing for a deeply flexible and meaningful experience.
Midday, we’ll enjoy a picnic-style lunch out on the land, typically in a scenic spot with great visibility for wildlife viewing or photography. As evening approaches, we’ll return to camp for a freshly prepared dinner and some downtime. If the skies are clear and conditions are right, we’ll also have the opportunity to step outside and witness the northern lights dancing across the Arctic sky.
We will ride out of camp for the last time heading back to town for your early evening flight to Winnipeg.
(Note – itinerary on day 1 is subject to change if there are any flight delays from Winnipeg, we will have the option to spend the night in town to avoid travelling on the tundra in the dark)

Travel Information

Most guests travel internationally to Winnipeg, Manitoba - the main hub for onward travel to Arviat. Depending on your arrival time, you may need to overnight at the airport hotel before flying north.
From Winnipeg, you’ll take a Calm Air flight to Arviat, where your Arctic adventure truly begins.
While many operators count hotel nights in Winnipeg as part of their expedition length, we believe your experience starts the moment you step onto the tundra. That’s why our 8 day trips are focused entirely on your time in Arviat - immersed in the land, the wildlife and the experience you came for.
At the time of booking, we’ll provide personalised guidance to help you arrange flights and accommodation for a smooth and stress-free journey north.
