“Spectacular and
larger than life are the adjectives I would choose to describe these
territories. There are
so many extraordinary experiences waiting to be uncovered in Canada’s North,
but one of my recommended adventures would be a snowmobiling excursion over the
Tundra in search of the caribou herd.”
A road made of ice that leads directly across the Arctic … Dawson
City mushers preparing their teams for the hardest dog-sledding race on Earth …
warm welcomes and a vibrant music scene—Canada’s North offers all the allure of
a grand adventure, along with home-grown charm and hospitality.
“An expedition to the
Yukon and Northwest Territories is the ultimate Canadian experience.” says
Kristy Taylor, Maritime Travel Advisor, New Minas, NS. “I was blown away by the
vibrant culture and music scene in Whitehorse; the beauty of the huge Yukon River
which flows through the city; the thrill of snowmobiling across the Tundra in
search of reindeer; and then slicing through the Arctic Ocean on a road made of
ice. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.”
A northern expedition is also uniquely Canadian in that it
covers all three coasts—from the Atlantic to the Pacific to the Arctic. “The
territories are so vast—but then, that’s what we’re all about in this beautiful
country,” says Krista. “Ask me about the many ways you can experience the Yukon
and Northwest Territories—from cruise-ship-based Polar expeditions to
fly-and-hike holidays, there are tons of options from which to choose.”
