Frontiers North knows how to do the Northern Lights right!

We did the 7-day itinerary at the end of February and thought everything was planned and executed perfectly. The daily activities were culturally informative and the evening aurora viewings were spectacular!

Exceeded my expectations at every turn. Aurora Amazement

I just finished my fabulous tour with Frontiers North to Churchill. I am a bit of an Aurora chaser and have been going to Lapland several times a season for the last 5 years.

Unforgettable experience!

I did the one day tundra buggy tour while in Churchill and it was so worth the price (around $600 AUD). Our tundra buggy guide was fantastic and so knowledgable about the area.

We had been waiting a long time to realize our dream of visiting Churchill and having the chance to see the polar bear in its natural habitat. It was an extraordinary experience, amazing from every point of view.
