Tundra Buggys
Our trips to Churchill get you out into the frozen wilderness in an outsized ‘Tundra Buggy’ which allows you to observe the bears, at a safe distance. With their huge special tyres, the buggies easily navigate the uneven terrain and offer an elevated position, giving a clear view of the animals outside. The buggies are heated, and there is a basic restroom onboard as well as an outside rear viewing platform that provides outstanding photographic opportunities. The bears aren't at all bothered by such a powerful all-terrain vehicle in their midst and will often come right up and stand on their hind legs to investigate! Or they may simply ignore the Buggy and roll around in the snow nearby and play-fight with one another.

Weather
Temperatures can range from -10ºC (20ºF) to 9ºC (48ºF) and although there is likely to be snow and possibly rain, there is also a good chance of having bright, clear days. The combination of dark nights and absence of artificial light create the ideal conditions for an appearance of the northern lights. So keep your fingers crossed!
