Tour The Arctic in 2004

The following packages and prices are now available for booking in the 2004 season. Check the other tour operator's, I believe you will find our prices the most affordable in Nunavut. We offer ecotours, birding and sightseeing for the naturalist, historian, and anyone with an adventurous spirit.

All prices listed are based on camping in an igloo or tent, depending on the season, and travel outside the community by ATV, Ski-Doo, boat or dog team, again depending on the season. We do have a local hotel and a B&B with showers, meals etc if you prefer more comfort. All air fare to and from Gjoa Haven and optional hotel/B&B is the separate responsibility of the individual traveler.

In 2003, Gjoa Haven celebrated the 100th anniversary of Roald Amundsen and his two year stay in our safe harbour during 1903-1905. Amundsen then sailed west and became the first mariner ever to navigate the Northwest Passage. Nunavut Tourism and Nunavut Government plan to celebrate the centenary of the Northwest Passage from 2003-2006 in our area.

A visit to Arctic Canada is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Photograph muskox, arctic fox, arctic tern, plover, snow geese, a variety of shorebirds and dozens of other arctic wildlife species in their native habitat. From May-August experience the 24-hr sun and its affect on your metabolism and internal clock. Travel on the treeless tundra by ATV, look for ringed seals or fish for arctic char in the Arctic Ocean.
