D1Vancouver--Yellowknife

Today you will arrive in Yellowknife, the capital of Canada's Northwest Territories province. Yellowknife Airport (YZF) provides a 24-hour free pick-up service on the day of the tour. The tour guide will be wearing a red Canada goose and waiting for you holding a pick-up sign with your name on it. You can rent Canada Goose level 5 Expedition jackets, snow pants, boots, gloves and other cold-weather clothing for a fee. After picking you up, the tour guide will hand over the cold-weather clothing to you and then go to the hotel to check in. Huangdao Town is one of the three major aurora viewing spots in the world. It has a superior geographical location and natural conditions. The aurora can be seen about 240 days a year. When night falls, in order to stay away from the light pollution of the city, we will drive to the Indian Safari Tent Valley Camp and wait for the Aurora to appear. The camp provides hot drinks and snacks. Lucky guests will have the opportunity to meet old Indian hunters who have returned from hunting and see them demonstrate their hunting methods and the prey they caught. After the aurora appears, we will follow the photography guide to take photos as much as we can. The negatives will be uploaded to the cloud and downloaded for free without loss. If you encounter windy and snowy weather, experienced drivers with many years of light chasing experience will take you to the lake or forest where you may see the aurora.
