Churchill Manitoba: Polar Bears
With Melanie Elliott
This tour has come and passed. Next tour TBA. To receive notification please email Melanie Elliott.
Experience a Canadian wonder! World travelers come to Churchill in the fall to witness polar bears waiting for the ice to form on the Hudson Bay. At freeze up, polar bears return to the arctic ice to resume seal hunting and break many months of fasting. We will view the earth’s largest land carnivore from the safety of a Tundra Buggy©. The tour is enriched by sightings of other wildlife, migrating and resident birds, historic Cape Merry, the Eskimo Museum and possibly spectacular northern lights.
Highlights of this trip
- a full day on our private Tundra Buggy©. You will be delighted with the opportunity to observe and learn about these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.
- accommodations at the Churchill Northern Study Centre. The study centre is located on the traditional polar bear migration route to The Bay. Staying at the Centre provides us an opportunity to meet and learn from researchers.
- opportunities to explore and photograph the local area, wildlife and birds.
- a relaxing train adventure from The Pas, MB to Churchill through boreal forest and taiga.
