★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 370 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $74

Review of Yellowknife’s affordable northern lights tour, with three viewing stops, free photos, hotel pickup, hot drinks, and winter advice.

“The tour was poorly run but saved by spectacular aurora show. We waited at the parking lot of our first stop for about 45 minutes too long with no Aurora activity.

Review of Yellowknife’s Cozy Cabin Aurora Tour, with pickup, fish chowder, bannock, fur clothing, photography help, and practical booking tips.

“This tour was our best of three different ones we did. First Tracy picked us up from our BnB so we didn’t have to drive around for a meeting spot. She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and we loved getting to hear about the area and learn about the Aurora.
