Amazing Wilderness

The Yukon wilderness is world-renowned, a brutal expanse of beauty and harshness that commands awe. Its winters stretch nearly seven months, plunging to under -50°C or -58°F at times, locking mountains and rivers in ice. Summers blaze hot under the midnight sun, rivers surging and forests sprawling beneath relentless light. It’s an intense land—vast, unforgiving, and stunning in its extremes.

Fishing

Traditional Knowledge

The First Nations along Yukon's rivers hold knowledge carved from centuries of reading the land and water. Their culture runs deep, tied to the rhythm of the seasons and the flow of the wild river. Toughness defines them—hunting, fishing, and enduring where others falter. It’s a life built on grit, passed down through stories and skills that outlast time.

Learning Experience

Our tours turn the Yukon river into a classroom, guided by locals who know its secrets. They unpack the nature—plants, animals—and the history etched along its banks. Anecdotes flow, tales of the wild and the people, stories only those living up here can tell. It’s raw learning, straight from the source, as the water carries us through.

Guide

Wildlife & Habitats

The Yukon river carves through habitats thick with life—bears fish its waters, moose wade its edges. Wolves, foxes, lynx and wolverine roam the forests, while eagles ride the sky above. Salmon surge beneath, driving a web of predators and prey along the banks. It’s a wild pulse, raw and unfiltered, thriving where the river meets the land.

Frequently Asked Questions

That is always a good question! It surely depends on the weather, but even if it doesn't look like rain, bring something 'windproof' and a warmer extra-layer. Just in case. We can provide you with rain gear ahead of the tour, if necessary. There is more information in the 'What to bring' section of each tour.
On our tour 'Silent Explorer' we have an optional stop, if someone needs to relieve themself. On our 'Midnight Sun Time Traveler' tour we have an island stop planned where you will be able to use a toilet. We have installed ecologically-sound dry toilet outhouses for your convinience. For the 'Yukon Odyssey' tour, a toilet is usually not required due to the duration of the tour. The relative distance back to town here is also an advantage, if you are in serious need.
Yes. We want families to be able to build memories together. Having kids is a blessing. We try to reflect our sense for the needs of families with reduced rates separated into three age groups (adult/youth/children), specified in the details of each tour. We can not take infants on our boats due to safety requirements.
As a safety measure we decided not to take any dogs, of any size, on our scheduled tours. The dog would have to reside uncomfortably in a very small spot for hours otherwise. The dog's behavior might also cause unforeseen safety issues when we potentially encounter moose, bears and other wildlife on a tour. If you want to bring a dog (or possibly transport your whole sled-dog team), we might be able to accommodate you on a private charter tour.
Great idea for an adventure or a romantic night out. Yes, no problem. You can book a private charter tour with us. There are awesome spots for a weekend camping trip out there. Dogs need to be in a crate for boat travel (depending on size, we can provide one). If you want to have it easier - contact us for our prepared wilderness camps. They come already equipt with most things.
No, our guides are trained and experienced in avoiding dangerous situations and the handling of animal encounters of various kind.
