On board your expedition vessell you will find a group of experts, naturalists, zodiac drivers and guides that that will translate the language of nature for you, telling you the stories of the places you are visiting, reviewing the historical, biological, ecological and geological aspects of your trips.
You will experience first hand what surrounds you and arrive back home wiser and loaded with new knowledge.
Northern Lights More info about this activity
Debido a la naturaleza del campo magnético terrestre, las auroras solo aparecen en los polos. Por lo general, son visibles por encima de la marca de latitud de 60 ° en el norte y por debajo de la latitud de 60 ° en el sur (estas 'luces del sur' se denominan aurora austral).
This is an exclusive polar bear photography tour and a rare opportunity in the polar bear capital of the world during the annual polar bear migration back to Hudson Bay. This cabin-based polar bear safari is specially designed to get you close to one of the world’s most magnificent predators in their natural habitat and will give you some ideal polar bear watching locations and spot their fingerprints.

Strategically located in “polar bear alley“, our Polar Bear Cabins site is situated directly in the path of polar bears migrating as they search for the first sea ice forming on the bay.
Get the opportunity to safely photograph polar bears at ground level on this safari, behind an unobtrusive electric fence. Polar bears are known to wander right up to the fence!
