Detailed Itinerary
The journey, in full
Once we have picked you up from your hotel or select BnB, our tour begins by proceeding to the Northwest Territory Legislature, where we delve into the workings of our non-partisan government and highlight significant historical and present-day events in our area. Next, we proceed to a popular photo opportunity at Max Ward's Bristol Freighter and the Yellowknife Welcome Sign. If you're a fan of Ice Pilots, the next destination will surely impress you as we explore the Buffalo Hangar – Home of the Ice Pilots, and browse their distinctive gift shop. (Stop not available on Saturdays.) A visit to Yellowknife wouldn't be complete without exploring the local wildlife. We visit Nature's North Wildlife Gallery, home of a grolar or pizzly (a cross between a polar bear and a grizzly bear), to discover a variety of Northwest Territory species north of the 60th parallel. If time permits, we watch a brief film at the NWT Diamond & Jewelry Centre to discover why Yellowknife is known as the "Diamond Capital of North America" and we then head to the Yellowknife Visitor Centre. Have you heard about the quirky neighborhood known as the heart of Yellowknife? Old Town Yellowknife is a charming historical neighbourhood. During the winter months from January to March, there is an opportunity for us to drive on the ice road and visit the ice castle (subject to yearly weather conditions). To conclude our tour, guests may choose to be dropped off in Old Town for further exploration, where they can savor a delightful meal at Bullocks Bistro (reservations recommended), or they can opt to return to their hotel or BnB.
