Customer Reviews
Joined Julian and team for 2 nights of Aurora Chasing, a snow mobile tour and rented winter clothing. The winter clothing fitted everyone well, Julian was very flexible in allowing one member of my party to change size for a better fit. The snowmobile was a great experience as we followed the guide into trails and around the frozen lake, getting to operate our own snowmobiles. The highlight of the trip, however, was the 2 nights of Aurora chasing. An experience that could not be better! Julian led the first night and Isaac, the second. Saw the auroras on both nights at different locations. Although the night started abit cloudy, both guides were able to drive till we saw clear skies which allowed us to see the Auroras in the most magnificent form, dancing even. Hot chocolate and maple cookies were provided. The team also took great photos of us and shared it through a google drive link. Communication was good over email as well. 10/10 would recommend
Amazing local company, really looks after you on their tours. We really enjoyed the nightly Aurora chasing!! The dog sledding was great, snow mobiling was the kids favourite and we caught fish whilst testing our luck ice fishing! We had Isaac for most of our tours and he was super friendly and knowledgeable and Julian ensured everything went smoothly. Communication was spot on and nothing was too much trouble. Recommend. Northern lights tours 100%
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Northern Lights Tours. We did both the dog sledding and the skidoo excursions, and everything was exceptionally well organized, safe, and truly unforgettable. The dogsledding experience was unforgettable — the dogs were clearly well cared for, energetic, and loved what they do. The skidoo tour was equally amazing, with stunning winter landscapes. A special mention to Julian (tour organizer) and Cynthia (dog owner), who were simply amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Thank God I trusted you Julian...not always easy to book tours! Honestly, our only regret is that we didn’t also book the aurora tour with them — after seeing the quality of their other excursions, we’re sure it would have been incredible. We highly recommend Northern Lights Tours to anyone visiting Yellowknife. If we return, they will be our first choice without hesitation.
