I booked an Aurora Borealis tour with Northern Tales last month and was very pleased with my experience. The staff and guides were unfailingly professional, helpful and friendly, from the time I called to book the tour to the time they took us 'home' to our hotels around 3:00 in the morning. When we set out around 10:30pm the sky... More

Thank you Northern Tales for the unforgettable experience! Great experience, great staff -- highly recommended. My camera broke and I was so worried I wouldn't be able to capture the experience in pictures! Northern Tales to the rescue, it turns out it's actually part of their service to offer photo shoots...and they provided links to where the pics can be... More

When we booked our trip with Northern Tales, we didn't know what to expect. When we had to reschedule our trip due to a family emergency, both Northern Tales and Air North we both very accommodating. This was the first sign that we were dealing with a great organization. When we arrived we were well taken care of, from picking... More

During the first weekend of our 10 week stay in Whitehorse we knew we wanted to see the Northern Lights before the peak season was over. Initially we were going to try and see the lights on our own but we heard that the tours were great and this particular evening the forecast was enhanced, promising a great viewing. The... More

Thanks to Northern Tales, my husband and I had an outstanding, unique , and memorable trip to Whitehorse. The entire experience, from the initial planning stage to the day we departed, was perfectly planned and executed by the amazing people at Northern Tales. After being picked up at the airport, we were taken to the lovely Gold Rush Inn and... More

I had a lovely time with the folk from Northern Tales. Even on nights that the lights didn't come out to play I enjoyed myself - the guides worked hard to make sure people had a good time with or without Northern Lights. The snacks were plentiful. The viewing huts comfy. And then the Lights came out. Hooray. The admin... More

We have just come back to Australia from Whitehorse and had the most wonderful experience with Northern Tales. We were very fortunate to see the Aurora Borealis on 2 on the nights we were there. The first night was lovely but the 2nd night on March 28 was sensational. The light show started around 10pm and continued until around 1.30.... More

To think my husband and I almost cancelled this trip the day before we left Honolulu for Vancouver, then Whitehorse! I had hurt my ankle from exercising and then read three 14-day weather reports that it would be snowing 4 of the 5 nights we were going to be in Whitehorse. We are both serious photographers (hobby) and also wanted... More
