This is the perfect trip for guests who want to get out in the wilderness quickly - without the hassle of long transfers to and from your destination. On the June tour, you will enjoy many Yukon wild flowers and the midnight sun. In August - September, we'll have opportunities to see and photograph vivid fall colors and relax around a campfire in the evenings and maybe catch the Northern Lights. This tour offers the option of adding on a 3 night stay at a wilderness lodge in the southern Yukon, after the canoe trip.
