【ITF Campaign｜20% off 】Yellowknife 4-Day Tour: Aurora Viewing in Glass Teepee & City Sightseeing | No Accommodation Included | Canada

Unfortunately, our flight was delayed this time. We were originally worried that we wouldn't be able to cancel or would have to pay extra, but the store told us that they could reschedule it for us and wished us good luck, which was very kind to us. This trip was also very smooth. If the shoes did not fit the size, they immediately changed them for us. When we needed to take pictures, they were very patient and very cooperative with our wishes👍

I was fortunate enough to meet Jimmy, the person in charge of Aurora Tourism. He is also from Hong Kong. He has accumulated 37 years of rich experience in Yellowknife and shared many interesting and touching stories. The team also includes tour guides Momo, Wendy, Ray, etc. from Taiwan, who are familiar with aurora tracking and professional photography skills. They took hundreds of postcard-level photos for the group members from 22:30 to 02:30 every night. Due to the beautiful nature of the sky, we saw the aurora for three days. On the first night, we could clearly see a large area of dark green aurora with the naked eye. It was really a worthwhile trip. Thank you Aurora Travel for your attentive introduction and reception. It is highly recommended! 👍👍👍

Airport pickup included a down jacket, snow pants, snow boots, and gloves. Bring your own warm clothing for Taipei winters (UNIQLO is acceptable), and they'll provide the rest. My husband and I both wore Columbia snow boots, but mine weren't slip-resistant and we kept slipping. Looking at the soles, my husband's boots had more teeth than mine, but thankfully they provided a complete set. Even the most expensive Taiwanese trendy brands aren't as warm as local clothing. The tour guides were all very nice, including people from Hong Kong and Taiwan, speaking Mandarin, English, and Cantonese. We watched the aurora from warm wooden cabins, transparent tents with heaters, and campfires. The guides would stay on the aurora and then call us out to see it. The campsite had hot water, hot cocoa, biscuits, tea, and coffee; you could even roast marshmallows. There were clean toilets and instant noodles for a fee. I've been on other tours, and while the directors were also nice, the vehicles were very cold (the snow on the ground didn't melt). Every guide was a great photographer; you can download photos online. If it's cloudy or foggy, we'll take a bus to chase the aurora borealis. On our last night, we changed locations three times. Although the aurora wasn't strong that night, there was a meteor shower. You can refer to the weather forecast to prepare mentally for chasing the aurora. You'll need to dress warmly; I recommend bringing a mask, a beanie, thermal clothing, hand warmers, and hot water—enough to cope with temperatures as low as -30 to -40 degrees Celsius. During the day, the first day's city tour included a museum, a visitor center, a park with an airplane, and a lighthouse. The outdoor scenery was quite nice. I wasn't particularly interested in indoor activities, but interspersed throughout, there was enough time to warm up and use the restroom. The rest of the day included paid tours such as ice fishing, ice motorcycling, and dog sledding, all of which were extremely cold. Ice fishing, in particular, was mainly done by locals, with tourists assisting. Riding in a sled-like vehicle was very bumpy and windy, quite thrilling. A grilled fish lunch was included. On the last night, you need to tip extra, 12 per day, and then return their winter clothing. They'll take you to the airport the next day. Because the outdoor activities were short, we didn't feel too cold without their winter clothing. As an aside, I stayed at Jenny's Airbnb, and everything was great. Jenny was very nice, and there were many good restaurants nearby. Many local Airbnbs require climbing stairs, so if you can't carry your luggage, you might need to stay in a hotel. There are many delicious foods in the area, including Japanese restaurants run by Hong Kong people (the fried rice was delicious), Hong Kong-style restaurants, as well as Indian, Ethiopian, and Greek restaurants. I was particularly impressed by the Greek restaurant; the rest were all very good. Food there isn't cheap, starting at 20-30 pesos, and it's easy to exceed 40 pesos for a meal. Tipping is optional at 15/18/20/25%, and almost everyone accepts credit cards. Although expensive, the portions are very large, and you can pack up any leftovers for dinner. Most Airbnbs have microwaves. I only wanted to go out to eat once a day, and dinner was enough with the leftovers from lunch. Yellowknife is about experiencing a relaxed and focused lifestyle, because the days are very short in winter, and you'll fall flat on your face if you're not focused.

The weather at the end of October wasn't great, so the chances of seeing the aurora were slim. However, the driver and guide worked very hard to find good spots for us, making the aurora-chasing tour to Yellowknife the right choice.

The director and driver were both very dedicated and responsible. They traveled to several locations over two consecutive nights.

During the three nights of chasing the aurora, the travel agency will change the route according to the weather conditions to ensure that we can chase the aurora. They will also adjust the time a little bit so that we can wait for the aurora as long as possible.

I took a 4-day, 3-night trip. I didn't see the northern lights on the first day, even though the driver drove quite far. However, on the second and third days, because the weather was clear, I was able to see the northern lights. The tour was located in the travel agency base, which had a small cabin. The tour guide helped me take photos with a single-lens camera, and the city tour was very detailed.

We saw the Northern Lights on two of our three-day trip, and even saw a spectacular aurora explosion on the second day. It was a truly worthwhile trip. JIGUANG TOUR is an excellent travel agency. Even when we stayed at a guesthouse, they would pick us up at the door. Every day at the aurora viewing camp, a professional photographer diligently took photos for us, uploaded them to the website, and we could download them ourselves at no extra charge. Jimmy is a skilled photographer and helped us find great photo spots. He took great care of every guest, ensuring they all got a good shot of the aurora. Momo, our friendly city guide, provided a very engaging, insightful, and engaging presentation. I'm so glad I chose JIGUANG TOUR for this aurora viewing trip.

Waiting for the aurora depends on the weather, but the waiting time at the Aurora Camp can be warm and interesting. Thanks to the owner Jimmy's humor and Momo's lively and friendly attitude, not to mention the very professional aurora photography.

Airport pick-up, Aurora chasing, city sightseeing are well arranged, and there are many additional activities to choose from
