The location has pristine, unhindered views across the horizon which lets you enjoy the phenomenon of the Aurora Borealis to its fullest.When we stand under the Yukon sky surrounded by mile upon mile of Yukon's wilderness, we can't help but think of what the ancients, our ancestors might have thought as they too stood spell bound by the Northern Lights. It's little wonder that they believed the Northern Lights to be the spirits of the departed or the Gods themselves. Yukon is one of the best places on earth to see the northern lights "“ colourful bands of light that dance in the dark night sky. While the northern lights occur year-round, summer's near-constant daylight makes seeing them next to impossible. In the autumn, winter and early spring, however, clear, dark nights lend themselves to stunning displays.

Tour Questions

The itinerary includes two scheduled Northern Lights viewing outings in Whitehorse: one on Day 3 and another on Day 4. Both take place at the AuroraCentre, where travellers can watch the night sky from insulated yurts while enjoying a hot drink. The two outings provide separate opportunities to see the aurora, although sightings are never guaranteed.

The AuroraCentre offers a viewing location with open, unobstructed views of the horizon and insulated yurts where travellers can stay warm while waiting for the aurora. A hot drink is provided during the described outing. The experience is designed to let travellers enjoy the Yukon’s dark skies in a more comfortable setting than waiting outdoors for the entire evening.

The Day 3 itinerary specifies a 10:30 p.m. departure for the first Northern Lights viewing outing. Day 4 also includes a late-evening departure, but an exact time is not specified for that outing. Travellers should confirm the return time and expected duration with Anderson Vacations when booking.

Day 2 includes a Hop-On, Hop-Off sightseeing bus pass and the FlyOver Canada experience. The bus allows travellers to explore Vancouver’s downtown districts, waterfront points of interest and Stanley Park at their own pace. FlyOver Canada uses a large spherical screen, suspended seating and effects such as wind and mist to create the sensation of flying across Canada.

On Day 4, the guided town tour includes stops at the Wooden Fish Ladder, the White Pass and Yukon Route Building, and Main Street. These stops introduce travellers to Whitehorse’s local history and character before the second scheduled Northern Lights viewing outing later that evening.

The tour page lists availability from August 15 to April 15, covering late summer, autumn, winter and early spring. The page explains that dark nights during autumn, winter and early spring are more suitable for viewing the Northern Lights than summer, when long daylight hours make sightings difficult. Actual visibility depends on cloud cover, darkness and aurora activity.

The inclusions list four nights of accommodation, return airport transfers and the sightseeing and attractions shown in the itinerary. Airfare is not listed as included. The itinerary mentions a flight from Vancouver to Whitehorse on Day 3 and a return flight on Day 5, but the exclusions state that airfare is not included unless specified within the itinerary. Travellers should confirm flight arrangements and costs with Anderson Vacations when requesting a quote.

The package includes four nights of accommodation and return airport transfers. Travellers spend two nights in Vancouver, followed by two nights in Whitehorse. Local assistance is provided for the transfer to the Vancouver hotel, arrival in Whitehorse and the final airport transfer from Whitehorse.

The tour page lists a starting price of CAD $1,164 per person for Moderate accommodation, based on double occupancy. Applicable local taxes, travel insurance, gratuities, meals not specifically listed as included and airfare unless confirmed as included are additional expenses. Travellers should request a final quote that clearly identifies the flight arrangements and all extra charges.

The package includes two scheduled Northern Lights viewing outings, on Day 3 and Day 4. The aurora is a natural phenomenon and cannot be guaranteed on any night, and cloud cover, weather and aurora activity can affect visibility. The tour page does not describe what happens if the lights are not seen, so travellers should ask Anderson Vacations about this before booking.
