Most wonderful experience. - We joined a three night tour organised by this Tour. We were arranged to hunt aurora on bus, as well as viewing the wonder of nature at a station and a tent, both warm and comfortable. We enjoyed the tour very much. From the moment we met the tour representative at the airport to the time we were taken to our return flight, we felt the hospitality of all the staff who were delightful, polite and helpful. They were dutiful during the hunt for aurora and alerted us when it appeared whilst we were relaxing in the warm environment. They helped us to take photographs. Impressively a link was sent to us in the morning for photographs taken in the previous night. There must have been a lot of dedicated work throughout the night. We were taken to different restaurants so that cuisine of various cultures could be enjoyed. We thank each and every one who had provided service to us which was top class. Before we came, we had worried about how well we could settle in the extreme weather. With the wonderful service, this never came to our mind as soon as we were received.

Friendly knowledgeable and accommodating to see the magical aurora! - Saxson was very knowledgeable and friendly. They were flexible so that we were sure to see the aurora for as long as possible. He also explained more about the Aurora, just the right amount of info to be interesting but not like a lecture. The snacks were on point and the experience seeing the aurora was magical!

Excellently planned Aurora hunting tours! - We did the bus tour and the Aurora station tour and both experiences were very professionally planned out. The operators were punctual and very helpful throughout the tours on both evenings. Our guide, Angus, was the best! He was extremely knowledgeable about the Aurora and he also had some excellent jokes ;) I highly recommend Yellowknife Tours for anyone looking for a well planned out evening of Aurora hunting!

We will do it again - A guide who name is Angus. He was the best guide ever. Even though, we didn’t see the aurora that night but we saw aurora through his hard working for us in such a freezing night.. Thank you Angus and miss you hope see you again when we go up there again.

Best Aurora Hunting Tour - During our recent aurora hunting tour with four different tour companies: Morning Star, Yellowknife Tours, Northern Star Adventure, and Aurora Dream. Among these experiences, one guide stood out—Saxon from Yellowknife Tours. Saxon’s attention to detail was awe-inspiring. He meticulously checked cloud directions to pinpoint the optimal viewing locations for our group. Saxon wasn’t just a guide; he was a caring companion. He looked after each participant and helping everyone to take pictures. Thanks Saxon.

Very enjoyable aurora tour! - We visited in the first week of April and we were very lucky to get clear skies and an amazing aurora display. Our tour guide Janet was super professional - she constantly checked the sky so we would stop at a good location when a strong aurora display occurred, and she took really impressive professional photos for all of us. Not only that, she was really friendly and she made sure everyone in the tour had a good experience. You can't go wrong with this tour! Highly recommended

Great aurora experience - We had a great experience on the bus tour. We were taken to Prelude Lake where we could see the aurora light up across the sky. Our host, Florence, was very friendly and had many interesting conversations us. It was nice to have the bus there where we could go in at any time to warm up and enjoy some snacks!

Excellent tour - Small and intimate tour (unlike the mega tour group I had done two nights previous). We went to two spots on frozen lakes for extensive Aurora viewing of some great displays.

Would return in a heartbeat, absolutely incredible and unforgettable - Janet absolutely MADE our experience. Her excitement was incredibly infectious and much appreciated. I'm sure she has seen the aurora countless times but she was still so genuinely excited for each and every guest, it made the tour 10000% so much more enjoyable, and she speaks multiple languages which is amazing! After the tour ended around 4AM, instead of going home and going straight to sleep like everyone else did, she went through all the photos INDIVIDUALLY and emailed us at 5AM with a PERSONALIZED NOTE and ALL our OWN photos instead of a group link where we have to go through and download our own. WHAT AN ANGEL. I LOVED HER ENERGY. The locations they took us to were amazing and unique, I will definitely be recommending this to everyone I know and hopefully returning for another tour in the future :)
