Classic Churchill Polar Bear Adventure

“The bears! It was a lifetime dream to see them! I also enjoyed the dog sledding. The group was the perfect size and I feel we accomplished a lot. I have been really happy with all interactions and communication. Thank you!”

“I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our trip up last week. The professional level of your team is outstanding. Duane and JP made our days full of fun and excitement. Duane was always one step ahead of us - at the airport - at the interp centres and at the hotel. First class tour - thank you”

“Just a note of thanks . We have just got back from the Polar Bear tour last week. It was simply amazing.. a long held ambition to see Polar bears up close.. and that we did. Heather was a fabulous guide who went out of her way to give us as much as we could get. In a free gap in the afternoon we did a jaunt to the golf balls, and had 2 bear sightings.. 1 super close.. She also sorted buses to get us out the night the northern lights were out.”

“Our polar bear adventure with Frontiers North exceeded every expectation--starting with the fact that we were treated to more than twenty polar bear sightings, of at least 16 different individuals, over our two days on the tundra! We also saw ptarmigan, arctic hare, and red foxes. While animal sightings often come down to luck, almost every other wonderful aspect of our trip was only possible with the diligence, experience, and caring of everyone at Frontiers North. From our first moments on the ground in Winnipeg, we were impressed with the food and lodging choices, smooth movements between activities, and clear communication. We could not have asked for a better tour guide than Ward Cameron, who was attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about these bears and their lives. And we are still talking about how skillfully Markus piloted the tundra buggy to maximize our wildlife sightings! We also loved meeting and learning from the good people at Polar Bears International who are so committed to protecting these creatures. Though we explored staying in the Tundra Buggy Lodge, we ultimately opted to stay in Churchill, and we're glad we did. We did not feel we missed out on any polar bear sightings this way. Rather, we loved experiencing a bit of life in this special place (be sure to check out the Northern Store), and our accommodation (the Aurora Inn) was clean, warm, and comfortable. I would also note that we took advantage of Frontiers North's gear rental program. Though somewhat pricey, renting a parka, snow pants, and snow boots was still a better deal for us (Californians) than buying new gear we were unlikely to wear again. Gear pickup and dropoff in Winnipeg could not have been easier.”
