These tours include two nights accommodation in Winnipeg and five nights accommodation in Churchill, round trip airfare to/from Winnipeg-Churchill, Churchill transfers, four full Tundra Buggy day excursions, time for souvenir shopping, and all meals.

Occupancy on the tundra buggy is limited to ensure ample window space for people and equipment. Professionals who are extremely knowledgeable about the bears and their habits, and know the best angles and light conditions for that special shot lead these tours.

Tundra Buggies are furnished with dual-pane frost-free windows and contain propane-heating systems that resemble a fireplace. Fascinating information about the polar bears and other sub-arctic wildlife is also provided.

Churchill accommodation is subject to change and availability at the time of booking but, in general, is provided at the Ice Berg Inn, Polar Bear Inn or the Northern Nights Lodge. Winnipeg airport hotel is generally the Sheraton Four Points, but is subject to change.
