Northern Tales Travel Services Inc.

Thank you Aaron, Emily and Kevin at Northern Tales!! This night time northern lights excursion was absolutely stunning and amazing to see! It was mesmerizing watching the lights dance around the night sky. Our viewing location was just outside of Whitehorse with a great view of the night sky. It was a perfect evening spent outdoors looking up. There was also a beautiful cabin that was heated with a wooden stove so you could warm up between viewings. The cabin had ample seating where you could enjoy a hot beverage and snacks. Our guide Kevin, did an excellent job explaining the Northern Lights. He shed “light” on the subject matter. The cabin decor was authentic Yukon with interesting artifacts from the bygone days of the gold rush era. A fantastic experience and a must see and do when visiting Whitehorse!!

I can’t say enough amazing things about our experience with Northern Tales! From start to finish, Emily, Aaron, and the whole team ensured we were taken care of. The small touches added made it more personal and inviting. For example, when viewing the northern lights, the team put together a cozy welcome with food and drinks! They also provided pads to make sitting on the tree stumps more comfortable. I highly recommend doing the premium tour into Alaska…the views were breathtaking! I will never forget this trip and the amazing nature we experienced. If you are looking to do a northern adventure, book with Northern Tales!!!

Thank you @northerntales. What an incredible experience. From beginning to end it was exceptional. Our tour guide , Kevin was very knowledgeable, easily answering any questions we had and taking as many pictures that we requested. We were fortunate to not have cold temps but a cozy cabin with a wood burning stove with lots of delicious snacks were available to everyone. Also, a cozy campfire for those outside. Our light show got better as the evening went on. We did not want it to end. This is a bucket list must.

Absolutely Unforgettable Experience! We had the most amazing time with this tour company — the hosts Emily and Aaron were fantastic and went above and beyond to make the trip truly memorable. We did the premium tour and it was worth every penny. One of the biggest highlights was seeing the Northern Lights not once, but twice out of our four nights — and during a full moon! Everyone told us it wasn’t possible to see the aurora under a full moon, but we did, and it was absolutely magical. The scenic drive to Alaska was stunning — you really get to take in the raw beauty of the Yukon, and the landscapes are breathtaking. Another unforgettable stop was the Yukon Wildlife Preserve — we saw every single animal, and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate. You could tell they really cared about what they do, which made the experience even more special. After the preserve, we relaxed at the natural hot springs, and I can’t recommend it enough — the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. If you're considering booking a tour, don’t hesitate. This was the trip of a lifetime!

First class service and awesome attention to detail. There is so much to do that we are planning a return trip! You can be as busy as you want or chilled as a glacier. Be prepared to be blown away the beauty and history of the area. Do not hesitate to put your vacation in the hands of Northern Tales. They are, "Your Gateway to the Yukon"!

A truly wonderful experience! We did the 4 day aurora tour, as well as the Wildlife Preserve and Hot Springs day tour. Everything was so well organized and we were looked after so well. The staff are all very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Rina especially made it fun with her enthusiasm! And we had 3 beautiful nights of aurora.

Wonderful trip to Whitehorse – November 2025 We had an amazing trip to Whitehorse! We were lucky enough to see the aurora on two nights, and both experiences were unforgettable. Our guide Pablo was wonderful—he picked us up at the airport, gave us a helpful orientation, and joined us for our first aurora night. He was kind, friendly, and made everything smooth. The city tour with Rina was great too. She was fun and informative, and we even spotted a caribou! On our second aurora night, Naoimi guided us. He was very professional and took the time to explain everything as we watched the lights together. Overall, a fantastic trip with amazing guides. Highly recommended!

Northern Tales brought us an aurora viewing experience lasting for years and likely forever! 3 years ago, I posted the following review in TripAdvisor right after our trip. The upcoming Christmas once again makes us recall the beautiful memories. The moment I exchanged emails with Northern Tales, I felt we would be in their good hands. The staff replies fast, clearly and patiently. In the morning we checked in the hotel, one staff greeted us warmly and explained the arrangements in detail. We joined the aurora tour for 2 nights. Aaron, Bernie and Tom are very friendly and experienced guides. They led us to the site about 30-minute drive away from the hotel. In the first night, we were so lucky to see lots of activity. Calvin, the photographer, captured the beautiful lights and us with his camera. He also offered help in setting my camera in the best manual mode. I got wonderful snapshots. In the second night, there was little aurora activity. We stayed in the warm and filled-with-drink-and-snacks cabin. The guide talked about Yukon animals, landscape and everything. We talked back and chatted with other participants. We thank Northern Tales for bringing us such an unforgettable experience!
